26" Max 4 Camo

insanehair, Fact is, Parkerized finishes do indeed rust. The page you linked was a DIY Parkerizing page. What I asked you to do was to explain how Benelli finishes their shotguns, since you seemed to know what you were talking about. Obviously, I was mistaken on that.

crazyhair, Please explain how the Benellis are finished.

crazyhair, The SBEII is much much more than a goose gun.

This may be the best one yet. There's something about it that just looks like it could take on a Republican Guard unit by itself [ 02-26-2005, 04:28 PM: Message edited by: tucker301 ]

I'm beginning to like this one better than the first one I did. I might even try another one later this weekend. Maybe something in more of a marsh tone with medium browns and cattail tans.

crazyhair, 1. Why would anyone paint a trap gun in such a pattern as this? 2. GunKote finishes withstand temperatures in excess of 500 degrees F.

hooftrimmer, It was done in software. But you can get a custom finish like this. I'm looking at DiamondKote, but I'm not sure they can do the metal parts. http://www.mrarms.com/

No. The SBEII will cycle any standard load after break in. many will cyle light loads even right out of the box.

This one took a while

I'll do one maybe this weekend. I was thinking of trying the OD anyway. Photoshop is good stuff!

Here they simply ask us for three of our own shells.

There would be no problem using the steel OK tubes for Hevi-Shot.

turkey, http://www.mrarms.com/ Sepher, prices are on that site as well.

Thinking about sending my SBEII to have it Diamondkoted (GunKote). Here's one of the designs I'm playing around with. Your thoughts?

Which extension did you order? From where?

What do you mean by, "whats up with crio tubes?" The majority of favorable posts here for aftermarket tubes have been for the terror and the patternmaster tubes.

heavy, I've been using Hoppes Elite Gun Cleaner on my SBEII for the past two months and I am very pleased with it. It makes the matte black finish rich and dark, and it makes the synthetic plastics look like new without feeling greasy. I even use it on the gel pad.

Not at all.

Well spoken, mudhen! That's probably the absolute best comment on the 3.5" topic. Now, if I were plugging carjackers (unrespected game), then I might want them to suffer a bit more

Floyd, We are still talking about shotguns here, aren't we?

Originally posted by crazyhair: $400 US for the chance to shoot a 3.5 is too much for me, Then please don't buy one. [ 02-24-2005, 11:13 AM: Message edited by: tucker301 ]
