No-mar Cloth Gun Tape

[Mad Pierre]

The scrim/gunsock idea is also superior to a hydrographics job in that it takes away all shine and reflection from the rifle. Half the battle is to make it as dull and not like a rifle as possible. Hydrographics look superb, but they still look like a rifle and still reflect shine.

I have recently used this camo tape on an old guns action and barrel .

I very carefully stuck it down and cut once roughly in place . After I was happy with the effect I finished it off with matt laquer which finished it off nicely and kept it waterproof .

The rifle was not in good order ...... would I use it on a new gun , NO ! But good results can be achieved

I got me a realtree gunsock, fitted this and used a little tape and heypresto i have a nicely covered gun that breaks up the shape n doesn't reflect as much hehe.

dotn quote me on this because im nto entirely sure but its arouund the 200 pound mark i think,correct me if im wrong people as ive never had it done or know much about them

This is what you can do with a bit of camo material........ in my case an old Flecktarn shirt (Worth about £5 2nd hand from Flecktarn.co.uk)

You can see the advantage of hiding the varnished beech stock if you look at the shine on the grip that is normally covered by the right hand.

yea mate i like it!i see youve done the bipod aswell mate it looks wicked, by doing it like that aswel it breaks up the whole outline of the gun aswell
so thats all just attached with normal elastic bands?
cheers for posting the picture for us mate
regards jamie

[Mad Pierre]

Yup. Just normal elastic bands. (found some black ones)
The scope cover is a seperate small sheet with sticky velcro superglued to it.
The silencer cover is superglued to itself and slides on and off, the bipod legs are just wrapped with small strips and superglued together.... although care has to be taken not to glue anything to the gun ....

As I wear Flecktarn while out hunting it's impossible for the human eye to tell where gun ends and I begin.

Which is quite useful if hunting humans It looks good though, have you tried loose strips of camo, like a ghillie suit ?
