Title: Greenleaf dip?
Post by: the Ward on April 01, 2022, 10:02:31 AM
Anyone have a gun dipped in the new greenleaf pattern? If so, who did the work and were you satisfied
with how it looks? I have been pushing myself to finally put together a real dedicated turkey gun this summer, I'm just getting tired of swapping stuff around on dual purpose guns. I have some ideas on what i want to build, and i'm thinking i would like to have a vintage look to it. Thanks for any info you can share.

I had one dipped. He did a decent job but he did have one spot near the action release that was smudged a bit. But I had a heck of a discount on the price and I also know I am rough on stuff so no complaints

Thanks! This gun originally came in a marsh finish when I won it on gunbroker. I wanted to make another dedicated turkey gun this is it. Love it.
