Did you buy that gun camo or did you have it dipped?

357MAGNOLE

I assume dipped for those above. I don't think they had the youth in camo from factory. Although I have been known to be wrong

I dipped mine myself.  I have since sold this 870, but it turned out perfect.

I have one I am working on now. 870 youth, 21" barrel, Kicklite stock and forearm, McCarbo trigger spring, JEB's .560 choke.

I don't know how to post pics.

Does the trigger spring help? I though the trigger was pretty damn good out the box. Especially compared to the other shotguns I have.

My trigger spring should be here by Monday, supposed to reduce the trigger by 2.5 lbs or so.

I went with a patriot and was able to knock right at 3/4 of a pound off.

Had mine dipped in obsession by camo solutions, they did a fantastic job.
I did my trigger job myself.
Took the trigger group out for the dip job, while it was out I cut exactly one coil off the factory spring and polished the sear with jb bore brite and finished it with flitz. Took about 20 min and now I have a no-creep, smooth as glass 3.5 lb trigger.
