i put this on the general forum, not sure which one gets used more in the off season
i am prob gonna get my SBE2 dipped in the next month or so just to make it more "custom" so to speak. anyone have updated reviews or recommendations or for that matter ones to stay away from? i have searched on here and found some older threads with info but just trying to cover all my bases and get more updated info.
I am looking at doing either MO bottomland OR Elusion Forest Ghost (leaning to the Elusion currently). I am very very nervious about getting it done as it is a crazy expensive shotgun and it is my "always wanted" gun. If it was done just so so and what not Im not sure what i would do.
Looking for someone with a good price and does GREAT work....i mean great, not "good" or "pretty good" but GREAT. Would want someone that does a final coat to help it last longer as well.
any reviews or opinions are welcome, Im gonna sent my barrel off to Rob Roberts next week to get it ported and the forcing cone lengthened then its off to get dipped hopefully.
Ive read some good and some not so good on Tarjac, good stuff about Camo Solutions but he doesnt carry Elusion camo and some good and not so good on ColorandCamo. TNT from on here does both camos but its a newer company from what i gather which makes me a tad nervous.
I have some parts stock scope rings/mount getting dipped in Bottomland at TNT right now. I am expecting a call from them any day. I will let you know how it goes. The prices are good and the staff so far has been AWESOME!!!!!

Rob Roberts also does camo dipping. I'm not sure about the patterns however.
Thanks,

Tarjac did good work for me.
There's nothing to be nervous about with TNT's camo, he knows what he's doing and does a dip that is just as good if not better than others.
TNT for sure!!
Stan @ Sportsman Outdoor Services. Have that thing duracoated! Never will rust, no cleaning, and tough as a tank. Right now he has old bottomland, new bottomland, natgear and will have the Mossy Oak Greenleaf before too long. sportsmanoutdoorservices.com. Email him and told him Will sent ya.
I don't know if you were planning on shipping your stuff to someone or looking for something local to you. But here is a company in Sharpsburg, MD they do an awesome job. They've done a bunch of guns and bows for people that I know, and everything from them looks great. Nostalgia Works is their name and here is a link to their web site:

i ended up going with Rob Roberts over at Gun Works. Talked to Tom over at TNT and he was great to deal with but i was already sending my barrel to Rob to get some work done so it saved me money in shipping to just send the whole gun.
not to mention Rob has been awesome to deal with, he answered the phone when i called and i bet we chatted about hunting and guns for 20mins. I also like that he removes all the old factory camo before applying the new. Not to mention not many know Super Black Eagles like he does!
I will post up some pics when i get it back from him.
I've seen TNT's work. That is who I would trust.

I think you made a great choice. Rob is a man of his word and does great work. I've had him work on a couple of guns and have been very pleased with what he did and his return time is excellent.
Thanks,
Clark

I agree. You won't be dissapointed with Rob's work.
Where is TNT located??
Charlestown SC. I believe (GREAT GUY AND DOES AN OUTSTANIDING JOB!!!!)
yeah Tom seemed like a stand up guy and went out of his way to answer all my questions, AND i have yet to find someone that has even the slightest complaint about his work.
I REALLY wanted to do the gun in Elusion Forest Grey but just made more sense currently to let Rob do it all for me at one time.
