Transforming your Firearm with Mossy Oak Guns Skins

By Glen Wunderlich

With a couple of whitetail deer neatly vacuumed packaged and stacked in the freezer, courtesy of my big-bore pistol, thoughts have turned to deer hunting with friends as cameraman. Back in the 80s, doing so meant shoulder-resting a VHS camera with tubes, recording tape, and batteries larger and heavier than an entire digital movie camera today. The advantages of technological achievements continue to astound in ways never dreamed of just a few short memories ago.

With an Arizona coyote hunt already in the works for early 2015, traveling light with one special-purpose firearm would simplify life. The trouble is, however, the highly polished barrel and glossy wood stock on the varmint rig makes no sense. The wise varmint hunter wraps himself head to toe in camouflage. Yet, if his rifle is as conspicuous as high heels in a hayfield, it’ll be just as useful.

The answer to the dilemma was the modern marvel of gun skins with Mossy Oak® camo.  The generously supplied kits of pre-cut material provide the versatility of matching a firearm to given hunting conditions.  Certainly, other options exist such as expensive factory dipping or even do-it-yourself painting projects.  But, even if these methods turn out well, who wants to transform brilliant factory bluing and stock finishing to permanent status that may degrade value?  However, if you have a beat up, old gun, you can turn it into a thing of beauty easily.Remington model 700 with Mossy Oak marsh grass gun skins Read more
