I decided to give a couple of my older toys a tart up a month or so back.
First up: My 12yr old Tikka T3 that has done some serious miles. I got Paul @ NZ Hydrographic Printing to dip In Kryptek Mandrake pattern. He puts a matte finish clear coat on top to give it a very hard wearing protective layer, which has a nice dry feel to it.

Second up: My old faithful Remington 11-87 Premier. I have had this for near 20 years and it has never missed a beat, back when they were made properly and with full steel. It gets well used, but also well maintained. Bluing had worn off in a lot of areas and the stock was scratched and marked to hell. I sent it off to Paul once again and he dipped the stock and forend in carbon fibre pattern, fully prepped primed and painted the action, barrel and some other bits as shown. All painted had a hardener additive so should wear well.

Very happy with the end results, workmanship is excellent and much cheaper than buying a new gun/stock.
Very nice :cool:
Wow. I would be interested to know the ball park cost. I have a few that could do with a birthday.
Wow @Bryan they look awesome mate.....
Thanks @Rushy. The costs are very reasonable, especially given the quality workmanship and what Paul does to produce the it.

Paul responds quickly to Facebook messages.
PM inbound regarding details on costs.
Got the PM thanks. Not on Facebook so the link is not so useful to me but may be to others.
you would have to be pleased with them, they look great.

Classic @Sarvo Had one in similar condition years ago. Nice wee rifles. Do you have the folding leaf sight still?
Yes I do have it
Was very afraid to take it off - but learnt the correct direction to tap it towards and - no problem
I have another Hunter 222 also - it’s got the America Beaver Tail fore stock and it’s like new - think its 1956 a couple years younger.
I will get it out 1 day and put on here.
Got both of a chap that got them in form England – sure he on here somewhere watching
