This isn't the exact stuff I used for my turkey gun but it's close. Original use is to silence bows. But it worked pretty good on my 870. Quieted it some and made it camo. I used a vinyl tape on part of the barrel.

sorry for the late reply, been away from the computer for awhile
These are the paints I used for my stocks, You can get everything you need at Wal-Mart, except the web paint, I got mine at a Sherman Williams paint store. Im told that any paint store or craft store will have it.
I scuffed the stock with 300 grit sand paper, cleaned/degreased with mineral spirits and just followed the directions on the cans. I did two coats each of the primer and the camo paint. On the web paint follow the application directions and spray till you get the amount you want. make a few test passes on an old board and you will see what I mean. I put 15 coats of clear on cause I didn't want the paint to rub off when it was in the gun rack on my 4 wheeler. Be sure to use the flat clear, the gloss clears reflects the sun.

I agree with Idaho above. Wal-mart and a few bucks later can do wonders.

I revamped the ole .17 HMR yesterday with a Boyds Tacticool drop in. I put 4 coats of primer that laminate really soaked the paint up. I then taped off the forearm the pistol grip and cheek weld and sprayed flex seal on them. Then I finished it off with Rustoleum camo olive drab. I also stood about 3 feet from the gun and lightly misted the flex seal on the gun. It really added alot of texture to the rifle. I then finished with about 6 coats of Rustoleum flat primer. It really feels alot like my HS Precision on my Savage LRP .243 win.

Some great looking paint jobs on here!
Here's my Mauser as it used to look....
And how it looks now...
I really liked the brown with black sponge marks, but after I put the cheekpiece on I wanted something different. I'll end up with something else, but I kinda like that sort of "smokey" look it has now.
