Its a knoxx breacher grip.

I just sold it Friday on this website. I am painting a factory stock from mossberg to replace it.

I will post pictures of the new stock also.

Well you just gave me one heck of a good idea, and good explenation. I think i will try it this weekend, maybe just in an olive drab or desert tan, my 500 needs a new finish pretty bad any way.

Didn't go the camo route... I painted it with a can of desert sand. I may need to redo it, but it was not bad for a first try.

What about heat distortion? If your gonna do alot of goblin shooting I think the paint would act as a heat insulator and the barrel wouldnt disperse the heat like its supposed to when things get rocking and rolling at a molecular level. What kind of heat does it take to change the metalurgical composition of a shotgun barrel? I know they are cryo treating them to change the grain structure and im sure that alot of heat does the same but in a reverse affect.

I dont think any of us shoot a shotgun fast enough and with enough rounds to cause any heat damage to the barrel. Also mossberg duracoats shotguns at the factory. They would not do this if it caused damage to the shotgun.

Your paint looks like it is textured rock. Did you get the rock texture krylon?

Yes it is Rock Textured Krylon, it literally is like sand. It functions smoothly, and I paid special attention to not getting paint any where that the grittiness might hinder its function. I wanted something different, and it has a functional desert camo look, due to its speckled appearance.

If you had a bigger picture posted I am sure it looks cool.

You should do the stock and forearm also!
