These were painted with Armory’s old gunmetal over a black primer.  With Armory out of business and having used up the last of that gunmetal I’m going to see if Americana or FolkArt Metallic (gunmetal) will do the trick.

You might try Privateer's Pig Iron, maybe with a bit of black added.  I've had pretty good luck match the Armory gunmetal (may it rest in peace) that way.
