Painting the Stock

[gramps73]

Does any one know of someone out there that paints gun stocks in the Calgary area?
Thanks \Gramps

Send it to Corlane sports in Dawson Creek. They've painted several for me and use good stuff and do a good job.

Yup I do.

Not difficult to do at home. Cuts the cost as well, unless there is a particular pattern or finnish only offered through a custom shop.

The proper paint makes sending it to someone that does it well worth it. Otherwise it's cost prohibitive.

I don't recommend the old rattle can method, been there done that , may look good for a few weeks but will scratch off, wear off and once moisture gets it will look like s***.
What color do you want it in? I did my predator rifle in white texture with a Automotive Lacquer base and it is as tough as it gets. I have enough finish for one more if you want it white? Pm me if so...

I painted my varmint rifle this past winter with the old spray bomb. A few good coats then lots of clear coat and it is tough as it comes. I posted a few pics a while back
