    Whats the best shotgun coating

    This is my only shotgun
    It is an 1987 - 870 Wingmaster

    It needs a new coating.

    Parkerizing was the coating of choice back a while .

    Now there is some new stuff but the cost is more than what I paid FOR THE SHOTGUN .
    Thanks

    Glad you are satisfied. Let us know what the cost and turnaround time was when you are done. W.B. does a lot of Gov't work.

    Birdsong coatings are IMHO the best of the polymer type coatings. If it doesn't have to be black, Robar NP3 is a plated finish that is MUCH more durable than any polymer coating. The color is kind of a lead grey.
