Youtube videos showing how to do it abound. Is this something one should do?
I would guess no, but what does the OB say?

I don't like camo shotguns. In like 3 years it will look ugly next to a new one.

dont do it, I did it to a rifle just for shits and giggles and it looks like shite after a couple of years

I would only do it to like a Mossberg or Rem. 870 or something. Not to an expensive gun. I'm not saying those guns suck, but I wouldn't do it to my Benelli or something similar...

I've thought about it, but really don't see the point. You can get a camp wrap that is cheaper, protects the gun surfaces, and will not damage the gun in any way.

I couldn't image putting tape on my Browning Gold Trigger.

Why not just buy a new one that is camo painted?

There's always hydrodipping. Thinking about having my 10/22 done.

Mmmm... why would I? I can change the camo wrap to whatever background I am hunting, and it can be used reused more than once easily. You can take the old stuff off and cover water bottles, buckets, whatever.

I did this mainly just to protect rifle from scratches and shite.

So why not just keep it factory? I mean do the animals really care what your gun looks like?

Meh. I am not all camo crazy. I do think it helps to hide motion a little bit though. As far as the gun goes, its more of a protection thing I guess. When I unwrap my shotgun, it looks like new under there.
I did put a wrap on my Mosin Nagant though, just for looks. Its shredded a little bit and gives it that Enemy at the Gates look.

Only do it on old guns thats beat up. Never a new one never, and the tape is worst thing possible, leaves residue when you take off. Ive sanded down old old beat up 22 before, and painted...looked like a new gun. But never would do it to a expensive or new gun

Camo Form is not tape.

duracoat is the way to go, it is permanent and the patterns are endless, and it will add life and value to your weapon
