Coating a 870

[pops572]

Does anyone know what it costs to have a 870 Dura/Cerakoted? Any place local (north Nashville) that does it and what kind of turnaround time? I have this WELL worn security shotty that just needs some attention, but I got it cheap and Idon't want to put a lot into it.

If you want to do it on the cheap, get a can of Alumahide II from Brownell's.  It's about $15 in a rattle-can and due to its epoxy formula, it is more durable than regular spray paint, but not as durable as professional Duracoat.  Most places I have looked at charge around $200 - $300 to do a pump shotgun in Duracoat/Cerakote or similar coating.
