Just got this photo to work, Its a REM 1100 finished in the AmStripe camo pattern. The colors are OD green & Matte Black.
  The Amstripe pattern is by far my favorite pattern. I dont know why but I really like the way it looks. Joe Edited photos |

No, I didnt do it but it was done in house. I'm swamped with customer's orders. Since it was my own gun, I did the masking but I had my 13 year old son shoot the coating. He has done a couple of rifles for family now. He did his Grandpas S&W & an Urban Digital on his own rifle.

your right That gun looks GREAT I really like the look of it too for some reason
Do you think that pattern would look as good on an 870? I like it alot But got no reason to spray a redone Field 1100 I use for trap lol |

It will look almost the same as it dose on the 1100. They are both about the same dimensions in the receiver area, & stock.

Thanks for the photo; my gunsmith is doing my Israeli Heavy Barrel FAL in that camo and it's nice to see some other examples of it.

The Amstripe pattern really looks good on the large flat sided rifles like the FAL & AR's. I did one of my AR's in it & I'm going to do my STG58 in a custom digital version of this pattern when I get it done. It is a little wider than the AmStripe but it looks wicked (its more of a cross between the advanced amstripe & a digital.)
Post a photo when its done. Joe |

Thanks, it is coated in DuraCoat (Prolane T). Which is an excellent two part polymer coating. It has roughly the same wear charateristics as a good park job.
I highly recommend this coating for applications where baking the refinished item at 300+ degrees, (needed to cure the thermally cured products such as KG or Moly Resin), for an hour may cause damage, especially for applications that will require coating optics or electronics. Joe |

It's POLANE-T, but who really cares? I had to use a sandblaster to remove the DC'ing I had done. I wanted to rough the surface up for a new scheme and it takes a whole lot of sandblasting to get through it! |

Yea, Yea I cant spell I always put a "R" in Polane T (Prolane T) & an extra "A" in acetone (aceatone). Dont know why, you would think with as much as I see it on the cans I'd be able to spell it. Joe |
