I can't believe you would desecrate one of the most collectible, not to mention best, shotguns ever made with camo tape.

I would never put tape on a gun. I would paint or dip it.


Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

Do you have a point of contact for dipping a gun?

Here is one I painted for someone. Lasts pretty good and is easy to retouch.Using Walmart flat camo paints and several coats of flat/matte clear coat or satin polyurethane.



Other option would be getting it dipped.

What the heck is a point of contact?

If your asking who I used, I used tarjac.

But I would try to use dip 2 design, unless they didnt have the pattern I wanted.

It wears about like any factor camoing.

It looks good and will last a long time, but it will scratch like any factory gun.

I had a rifle dipped last year and it is holding up well. Fixing to send him another. Probably best to PM him.

I don't want to take any business from ANYONE, but I just put mossy oak graphics on mine, and love it. I didnt have the time or mula to dip my gun so I tried it out. I can't speak for how long its gonna last, but it looks dang good! Now its not a dip job, but from further than 3 feet you can't tell. It doesn't leave any sticky residue or anything. Google it and take a look at it. It also has a 5 yr warranty.

I bought the MO graphics but ended up giving it away. I think it is good stuff but ended up buying a camo gun.

Yeah, my paint on my gun is faded and extremely bright in the woods, especially in the sun. It takes an hour or so to put on, and I'm no artist, and fairly impatient when it comes to stuff like that, but it surprised me! If it'll last a year or 2, I'll be satisfied for 25 bucks.
