Remove all lube from the gun with brake cleaner, wipe it down and repeat until it is completely oil free. Then spray it all down with compressed air. Tape off anything you don't want painted (Sight posts, glass, etc) then lay down even but very light coats. It will take about four or five coats to get one side completely covered. Wait about 10 minutes with the rifle in the sun between coats for it to flash dry.
I use majic brand hunter's matte finish oil based spray paint. It's like $8 a can, and can be found at TSC near the tractor paint. Since it's oil based, most chemicals won't bother it, and it is not water soluble, so rain wont make it fade.
