Default camouflaging a gun/dipping?

Has anyone ever had their shotgun camouflaged professionally? Just bought a gun for turkey hunting and want it camo ASAP.I may do it myself to save $200. Any help would be great.

A$5 roll of camo duct tape works for me and its removeable and just as easy to re apply. you could do you gun fourty times for the 200 bucks.

I dont know if I would use Duct tape, but a 2" roll of cloth camo tapes
cost me 2 bucks, and looked very good when I was done with it. I found
some in Advantage Camo and Wally World. Good Luck

Where can you buy the "stuff" for dipping? I know "stuff" is a not very technical term but I don't know what too call it. I have an old rifle that is in need of a major refinishing, this could be something to try.

I've tried cloth camo tape on a few of my guns. It works fine but it's not what I'm looking for.

I have used cloth camo on some of my guns before and works good. But if you have rifle or shot gun. that you are going to use strictly for hunting; paint it you can get camo paints to spray it. and you can be suprised what a nice job you can do.
I started out spraying my shooting sticks then I done my alum. folding chair
and then my rifle..Just be sure to cover parts you don't want paint on use masking tape or vaseline. And it will come out pretty good. I think the hardest of doing it that I was afraid of ruining it. Gunsite
