IMHO Should start gettin her dialed in this up coming weekend. Range reprots to follow. OH BTW Charlie, the Gun Gargae finish is SOOO tough you would not believe it. Short of taking a new file to it, throwing off a cliff on to rocks, or leaving on the train tracks, you will not marr or damage it. Its truely amazing. I had a beat up Burris scope done in his matte black to and it looks brand new again. He even filled in the lettering (numbers) with white and it looks factory again.

hangunnr Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Re: Totally Customized Encore 7mm08 handgun! Gun Garage uses Lauers Duracoat dosen't he? I have two stocks coated with this stuff and you're right it is very tough. I've got a Browning Buckmark that's gonna get coated in the near future. hangunnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTbowman Posted April 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Re: Totally Customized Encore 7mm08 handgun! Not sure exactly who makes the duracoat but man I am impressed. Its aint no paint thats for sure; its armor..!!! LOL I was thinking of getting my 870 pump done in some sort of camo too. I wish he could do brand named camo....

CDubWSR Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 Re: Totally Customized Encore 7mm08 handgun! Thats deff a sweet rig. I really like encore pistols and rifles with wither stainless barrel and blued reciever or the opposite. I think the two tone looks sweet.
