Good job! Mossberg 835? Thanks. Not a Mossberg, it's a Winchester 1300 Defender... pistol gripped, 18" barrel, 12ga pump. After I install the new bead sight and reassemble it, I'll edit-to-add a pic of the entire gun. Even the sling clip on the pistol grip was all rusted. I had to seperate it with two small vise-grips to get it free of the grip. It wasn't pitted like the barrel & mag tube, so it just got sanded & duracoated (no Dura-Fil). Just hoping the Duracoat holds up when I squeeze it back together to put it back into the holes in the grip. |

Nice work. Don' t you hate all the waiting for the Durafil? Thanks. You got that right about the waiting. First time I've used Durafil... never Duracoated anything that pitted before. Instructions say "ready to sand in 4 hours". Nope, more like 6 (and it was low humidity & warm weather too). My wife refused to let me put it in the kitchen oven to speed up the curing time. It took 3 coats to fill in all the pits.
Now just go put an XS Big Dot on their now.
Not mine, or I would. |
