As the title states, anyone ever use a Gunskin. I am thinking about wrapping an AR and a Pistol.
Gunskins.... Anyone use them?
- Thread starter GOPerfect
- Start date
I wrapped my shotgun with Realtree Max5 Camo for waterfowl season. It turned out fairly mint. Only issue I have is where the cuts meet, they tend to peel up a little bit. Though they do press right back down. If you take your time, follow the instructions it will come out nice.
I go through phases in life,,,sometimes I take my time and do a fabulous job and other times I rush and still do a good job but not a perfect job.
I rush because I like to knock shit out,,,get her done and go on to the next job
Just take your time and do it perfectly!!!
Look at reviews on the skin you plan on purchasing,,,dont think there all good as one another

Thank you. If I decide to do a gun, I will absolutely take my time.
Now, just to figure out what company has the best skin...
I looked at the shit on amazon and looked at the reviews.

Wrapped a kydex holster. Very durable for what it is.

I agree,,,very durable. Good way to keep a gun mint if out hunting with it
I thought about the simple things like a holster would hold up fine. Less rubbing and the such. Like, if I do a handgun, wandering how well it would hold up going in and out of a holster.
Yeah, I was thinking that if I did it, it would be the upper, lower and the hand guards only. Maybe the stock.

This is the one that I think I might do.
Can you wrap the barrel of a shotgun?
I really hate the cheap bluing on my Mossy 500. Its a utility shotgun and I dont like the constant matainence.
Ive looked at different coatings but too expensive....I dont want to pay more than the gun cost.

No you were thinking of fore skins
If you see the spot where I didnt overlap the cuts in the 4th picture,,,thats the only part of the job I have issues with.
The non straight cuts on the receiver I could easily fix if I cared,,,which now that I look at them in picture form I care. So they will be fixed.
I just ordered the Zombie Green for my last AR build. Hopefully get time this weekend to do the install.

The good thing about these skins is that they aren’t permanent or leave a sticky residue when pulled off if you do not like them.

Pics PICS PICS!! when you do it, Ive got a gun or two that I'd like to do. Are you still thinking about doing a handgun? I don't think it would hold up well (my .02) I've done some with Dura coat and had good results.
That gunskins page,,,,if you become a club member for free you get special pricing and they give you something like 10% off your first purchase.
I just did it.
Thinking about buying something for my RPR 6 Creedmoor because it will keep it mint looking,,prevent scratches
Think I might get the Reaper one for that gun

I had a couple rifles done a few years ago by Tarjac. I would definitely use them again.
I called in sick today so I could wrap my AR. Turned out pretty decent, if I do say so myself....

As a former destroyer of plastic model decals, I have to say that turned out really nice! 
I like the layout on the stock especially.

I wonder if spraying a clearcoat on it will make it more durable?
I look that up. Nearly every comment I saw said not too. Makes it very difficult to remove down the road.
