1100, but it's starting to rust from the brackish water in our marsh, and i don't think anybody blues them anymore.

The only reason i would cover a gun is if the stock was old and faded. dont think i would cover those old 1100.

The synthetic stock on my gun got kinda melted one day by a mud boat exhaust pipe. melted my gun case and all the way to the stock. I sanded it best I coould then slid a shell holder over it to hide. Never really enjoyed knowin its there. Thats why I want to cover it. How much was your kit? Saw some rather cheap on ebay.

Eddie, next time use a hair dryer or a heat gun. Trim it pretty close and the heat will suck the wrap down in them hard to get places. It actually shrinks the wrap. Also, an Xacto knife is essential. It's still a good-lookin' job.

SaltERedneck 12-16-2011 01:29 PM

salty, I used the hair dryer as i went. I didnt wanna make cuts on the gun. the problem was that the peices were too big soo i was often doubling up when i couldve made cuts. I used a razor blade around the bottom of the stock and barrel. those were the two hardest parts to manipulate. the hair dryer did make it easier.

You didn't cut everything to fit perfectly next to each other did you? Overlap is fine and makes for less corners and ends to eventually pill back.

nope I doubled everything. it was just way too much doubling around the little knob around the stock on the bottom. and barrel was overlapping the sight soo i trimmed that back to fit.
