Dave W Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Has any of you good people out there ever used hydro graphics on a shotgun or had it dipped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaserF3 Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 I had a fore end and stock done a few years ago, it looked terrible so I removed it with Nitromors. It looks twice as bad as Beretta's Xtra wood, honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead-Eyed Duck Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I had a 20g Beretta 391 done a fortnight ago, and the result was 1st class - just as good as a mates 12g 391 that was bought as a cammo gun (you cannot buy a 20g Beretta in cammo). Cost was £240, which is not cheap, but I intend to keep this gun for a long time. I visited Hydrographics, and you are able to choose from various cammo schemes.

BlaserF3 Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 There you are Dave two opinions, one for one against. Which way are you going to go? Why not paint it yourself? If you are going to shoot practical it's bound to get bumped and knocked so is it really worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you choose a wood pattern then I had a 20g Beretta 391 done a fortnight ago, and the result was 1st class - just as good as a mates 12g 391 that was bought as a cammo gun (you cannot buy a 20g Beretta in cammo).

BlaserF3 Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 chrispti, Yes it was a wood pattern I cannot remember which one though, it was meant to look like expensive walnut but the seams at the top and bottom made it look awful. It was about 10 years ago, things might have improved but I wasn't very happy with it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
