On my O/U. See pic(not mine). Is this gun tape?
Thought about old sock or facemask?
Anyone have any suggestions?

The picture appears to be "Vet Wrap". It sticks to itself without leaving a sticky residue. I'm not sure if you can get it camo, but it does come in a variety of colors. Another option would be to buy a small piece of Mossy Oak vinyl. It applies rather easy and again leaves no sticky residue.

My dad uses this on his 1100. If any residue left after peeling it off a shot of WD-40 will take residue right off.

Does look like vet wrap. The vet wrap comes in numerous camo colors. Was given a couple rolls from a friend and member here on OG that's digital camo.

Use it to wrap one of my wingbones which is a bit too white and shiny.

Thanks. Guess I could do vet wrap and slide forward when loading/unloading

I'm not sure the vet wrap would slide. I used it on the stock of the wife's gun to add a riser and some padding for her cheek. It's pretty solid and doesn't move. You might take a look at Mossy Oak Graphics. It's vinyl sheeting that is basically permanent until YOU want to take it off. It is fairly easy to apply, fairly inexpensive and doesn't leave residue when you do take it off. I used one of their kits to camo a 1187 Premier. When I took it off after 3 years, the gun looked just like it did when I applied it.

Put this Mossy Oak Graphics on my sweet 16. Easy to install, no residue, and can be ordered gun specific. Was inexpensive too. Good luck....

Thanks PA, but I had help from a patient wife who is good with the exacto knife. The hair dryer makes this stuff easy to apply. I am confident that anyone on this forum can do it. Great product. Be safe my friends....
