Gun Skin.
 
So I was in the market for a high quaity paint job or a dip job to apply mulitcam to my M4 my scope, my suppressor and 5 magazines. The prices were in the ~250.00 range for both Dip and high quality custom paint. I decided that was too rich for my blood and ordered an M4 Cammo Skin kit instead. Full cost was $65.00 cdn after shipping and conversion. Enough material for the gun, the suppressor the scope and at least 1 mag.(hope to scavenge enough material for a few more mags...)

Has anyone here had any experience with Gun Skin?

Looks cool from youtube, and I know the look of my next rifle.

When i get it I will post a review here.

what a silly product. a bad paint job looks better than a good install of this vinyl sticker shit. forget about using this on a real rile. scraping melted/burnt vinyl from a barrel should be loads of fun.

Don't think it's too bad, kind of pricey for what it is though. Ideally this is for the people who don't want to paint on their original rifles and who can't do a proper paint job..

I assume if you remove the sticker however, going to need a fuck ton of goo gone. LOL.

I have been using Mcnett's gun wrap this past winter. Basicly the same material as the medical field uses for wrappiing sprains and such. It is self clinging, washable and reusable. I have been using the winter camo and just last week did my Scar-H SSR in Mossy oak which looks more like a green Atacs. It works really tp wrap the barrel and stock, you would have to play around with it to do the midsection of a rifle. The company seems to have a good selection of colors, winter camo, multi cam, Desert, and others. Bass Pro cares it, but limited colors or you can order right from Mcnett. It ranges from $15.00 to $20.00 a roll. One roll will do a gun about the size of the SSR. I have never post pics here but I will try and figure out how and put some up.

I have used GunSkin on my G36C it's not the easiest to work with, but looks nice. Plus it doesn't leave anything behind if you decide to remove it, I had it on a flashlight and just ripped it off no problem.

This looks interested, might have to do a bit of research on this one. Like how it's just one roll I can work with.

You can upload your pictures to a third party domain like photobucket or imageshack and then copy and paste the URL here.

Alternatively you can "Go advanced" when posting (not quick reply) and scroll down to "Manage attachments" and upload them via ASC.

Looks pretty good I must say..

Edit:

Did some quick googling, doesn't look as flush as the gunskin, but seems something I'd appreciate more since I can move and re-use as I please.

I will give that a try when I get home tonight Bio, the other nice thing with the Mcnetts camo is there is nothing left on the gun after it is removed, comes off leaving the gun totally clean. Your are supposed to be able to wash it in warm water after removal and it restores its self adhesion if I read the instructions right.

Awesome!

Think I might pick me up one or two. E-mailed to see when they would get the woodland standards back in stock.

Try these fellows out as well, they carry Mcnett's in Canada.http://www.greatadventure.ca/00cart/...dCategory=1526. Great to deal with.

That is correct on both counts. Comes off and back on with no residue and can be washed if you get let's say paintball leavings on it.
