I used hardware store duck boat paint to spray my old Rem 1100 about 15 years ago. The paint has held up better on the gun than on the boat. Duck guns are made to withstand abuse, and the 1100 has withstood more than its share (I bought it second-hand in 1976 and have never had a problem with it).

BTW, I never worried about "the camo look," just sprayed randomly to eliminate reflections. Ducks don't give a damn what your gun looks like, as long as you don't flash it at them.
