I got stupid
« on: January 19, 2011, 10:23:13 AM »
Yesterday I went down to and looked at one of my turkey guns. I had left the camo tape in it from last yr. Boy was I stupid. It took about an hr and a half to get it off. Lots of hoppe#9 and rem oil to loosin it up... i'll never do that again.. >!!

That must have been real fun! Can't say I've ever done that but my ole guns could probably use some tape to hide all the imperfections.

 Next time........use dry cleaning fluid.....it cuts right through that crud. Gasoline will also work.....but not as well.

  Yep I am guilty of the same.. My 20 guage ended up with a bunch of rust under the tape.
