 Camo gun dipping
So I took my sbe II to gander mountain to have them strip the old camo and redip it. I wish I had taken a before picture, I was missing camo and had rust everywhere, including the entire sight rail. They sent it up to their main gunsmith shop in Wisconsin. I got the gun back in 3-4 weeks, they originally told me 5-6. Had them do it in max5, man it came out great.

 Re: Camo gun dipping
It was $220 plus $10 for shipping. They were supposed to charge me $80 for stripping the old camo off, but it wasn't on the final invoice and I sure as hell didn't ask. Not sure where the store they sent it to is in Wisconsin is, just that it's there. I talked to the gunsmith that did the work, I missed his call and called back they answered as gander mountain so I know it was at one of their store. Get this, it also has a warranty, not sure for how long. Might send it back after duck season to get freshened up.

 Re: Camo gun dipping
Do they only dip guns or will they dip anything?

It just means there's no telling what you might say or come up with.

 Re: Camo gun dipping
I would assume they only do guns, I didn't ask. Maybe they do, go to your local gander mountain and have them call the main gunsmith store in Wisconsin to ask.

 Re: Camo gun dipping
I understand now, med. I think you're saying I might ask if they'll dip the head of my dick or something. I didn't know what Gander Mountain was, and apparently there are none in Louisiana. I have some small plastic pieces that I'd like to get dipped, and I'm thinking I'm going to send them to colorandcamo, but their prices seem pretty high.

 Re: Camo gun dipping
Having somebody local do it would be a BIG help! Does he have Max4 or Shadowgrass Blades? The problem I've run into with guys back home that I know through friends of friends is that they don't want to buy the rights from Mossy Oak or Realtree, as it's expensive. I know the ducks don't care, but the other 9-1/2 months out of the year I'd like it to look like I put some thought into it. I'll take a pic of the stuff...
