I have become extremely poor lately due to my pursuit of further education. So I can't spare too much money anywhere. If it wasn't for partial sponsorship from work, I am not sure I can afford to go to all the matches and shoot for practice.
With little to spare, I wanted some functional upgrades, but some personalization as well.

Just want to see what people have done to personalize their shotguns.

Rattle can of hot pink would take care of that.

Seriously though, some use decals, custom paint, etc to personalize. It's whatever you want it's your gun!

After hitting mine with files, then taking a soldering iron to the already camo handguard and pistol grip, my shotgun is very personal.  Personally it is butt ugly, but boy does it shoot.  Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all of that stuff.

One of my guys recently had his RAS shotgun and his pistol Cerakoated in a titanium color with flashy blue accents and added colored vinyl logo stickers.

Is the pistol barrel cerakoted?

an American flag decal drew several appreciative comments from the range staff at Ft Benning ...

Yes, of course some of the contact areas (link, ramp, bushing lockup area) are not coated,

+1 on the Cerakote.

You might consider shooting the shit out of it in matches. That would give it some battle scars and thus character.
I feel this is one the best and most personal form of…personalization.

Or you could paint it in rainbows and get really noticed!

Just playing with ya…hit up a good coating company or hydro dip outfit and let you're imagine run wild.

Unless sponsored or a company you feel REALLY strongly about supporting (more so than giving them your money and answering questions later when asked who made it)...I've never cared for stickers and such on weapons.

I've always liked the idea of anondizing, cerakoting, duracoat, stippling,.....

My 3-Gun rifle, I went with a two tone look.....factory NP3 coated Mega receivers, stainless barrel, chrome JP Lo-Mass BCG, polished stainless JP brake, black handguard/grip/scope/mount/stock.

My 3-Gun shotgun...26" Benelli M2 with 12 rd tube. Stippled the grip area and handguard, red HiViz sight. I really like the looks of the red anondized one piece XRail tubes, but Nordic has always worked flawlessly for me on other shotguns. Next winter, I may tear this gun down and have parts coated, anondized, or cerakoted.

My 3-Gun pistol....it has been a Glock 34, but today I ordered a Glockworx 17L custom lightweight slide with copper colored coating and black KKM barrel. Probably not a lot more functional than my Glock 34 slide, but satisfies my desire for custom style bling.


When you get some custom work done/do some work yourself....post pictures for us to enjoy.

Can't wait to see your 17L I've been looking at those all winter, but haven't pulled the trigger for one yet. What was their build time, did you get the silicon carbide grip?
