I am thinking of having my new turkey gun " dipped " for lack of a better term. I know Bell and Carlson offers this service. Has anyone had any experience with this procedure? Any problems?

I have had several guns "Dipped" by Duracoat in Columbus, GA. The place is actually a few miles from my house. I am 110% pleased. It is extremely durable.
Here's a link.

thanks for the link!!!!!! My buddy called Friday, looks like we'll be sending 2 guns out this week to get done. We just bought 2 CVA Optima Pro's and were gonna get them coated and see how it turns out!

thanks for the link my be the solution to my blued win 70 and dan wesson pistol pack problems.

They have the stock off of my new A-Bolt Stainless Stalker. I'm having it dipped in New Mossy Oak Breakup 3D. I'll post some pics when I get it back.

I wonder if this coating is as durable as say factory remington, or browning shotguns? Anyone know?

I paint mine using Krylon paint - it's pretty durable and when it does need touch up it's easy to do. The cost is a LOT less.

I can tell you first hand. It is the same process that they use on new firearms. I have had several guns dipped and so has my father, my friend is taking his Glock by there today. I took a key and tried scratch the stock (synthetic) of one I had dipped a few years ago, just wanted to "test" it. I could not scratch it, it just made marks in the plastic.

here is a pic of the stock after it was camo dipped.

WOW!!! How do you argue with that???? Let's see JDreddish probably spent ~ $700-900 on his Browning, and then he's gonna use Krylon on it!!! hmmmmmm (I think I would go with the $200 to get it done right)
