Is a camouflaged gun important for duck hunting?

That is true since the browning owner would never have laid it down in the swamp to get wet and full of crap. Plus he would be scared the other B gun owners would run off with it if he did. ;);)

Browning owners learn that a speck of dirt or a drop of water on the gun turns it into a single shot.:stirthepot2:

What do you expect it takes a few years after they used the other B guns to realise that their new brownings didnot screw up after the first round and they can pull the trigger two more times.
By the way how is that new B gun of yours working as good as an old sp-10???

I have to laugh today looking at the snow starting outside. F'n Nuts

It depends. Do you take an ozone generator with you into the field while hunting deer so that you can fart and smoke all day without worrying about odour? Do you have a rifle equipped with a laser-rangefinding scope with LED's that light up to teach you how to shoot? Do you grab your smart phone to find out if the sun is shining instead of looking out the window?

If the internet goes down for some reason do you start to shake and maybe pee yourself a little?

If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then you do indeed "need" camo. Otherwise, no. :)
 
10-15 years ago I would have never thought I'd be hunting with a Camo Gun...but now I almost don't feel comfortable Waterfowling using anything but. I have a Remington 870 Special Purpose that must be 7-8 years old and it looks and works A1, bought a new Extrema 2 last year and it is hands down one of the best purchases I have ever made.

The camo finish on both of my guns is very durable and makes the gun pretty much weather proof; Salt Marshes and Potato Fields in prime Duck and Goose hunting Weather will make you a believer of a coated gun.

Don't get me wrong I love my polished blued, walnut stocked shotguns...more so on a nice sunny day walking through the woods looking for grouse and rabbits though.

Couple cell phone pics of from last fall:

I just bought my first shotgun a browning bps with camo.....2 reasons come to mind. I love the way that rubbery finish feels and I thought it would protect the gun better against corrosion. I think it was about $100 more than the same gun in wood.
 
I think having a gun that's blued and a matte black scope is more important. You don't want steel shinning in the light and having your prey see the glimmer.
 
Camo gun or not, the most important thing about duck hunting is location. It doesn't matter if you have 300 decoys and camo everything, you have to be where the ducks want to be, not where you want the ducks to be. There is a lot more to worry about than a camo gun.......but they look cooler, and that my friend is what its all about.

A lot of truth in this post. If they want in the field or pot hole you are set up in I agree nothing is going to stop them from trying to come in. I would see us limited out and four guys picking up decoys and birds landing all around us..
