I used furniture stripper, the gel type...brush on a light layer, let it set a couple mins (doesn't take long and you don't need a thick layer of stripper), and then scrub and scrape it off, it comes off easy...I used scotchbrite pads and plastic scrapers, took 2 or 3 cleanings, the first one is pretty messy (2 layers of primer under the dip)....and then a tooth brush to scrub out the checkering on the final cleaning
need to wear gloves as the stripper I used burns, and I wore a mask, nasty fumes to be breathing in....(plus I installed epoxy flooring all through school, I've inhaled enough chemicals for a lifetime, pretty cautious about that crap now lol)
next step is a light sanding, degrease, and then prime and paint

Not sure I will strip mine, but that does look good as is. Thanks for the post.You could leave it as is, doesn't look too terrible but does have a hazy finish after stripping it...this is how it looks bare stock
That's sort-of how how I feel about that phlamo camo.I hope you guys realize you are destroying it's collectors value!
Many will find it obnoxious, much like when I wear one of my LEAFS hats. Complete strangers will come up to me and harass me when I wear it. I expect that rifle will be the same.

They are still available in country ( the gun ) but at the higher price of course.
It pays to shop around and be ready when a deal comes ones way.
The gun isnt for everybody regardless of the paint.
There are a few in the EE but, factor in shipping...
Someone will let it go for less money..eventually.
Tight Groups,
Rob

Well like they say, best way to make your vacuum cleaner suck, is to put a maple leafs sticker on it!! Haha

I checked online with Wholesale Sports and didn't see this sale listed, maybe it is only out on the Prairies?

A little late to the party here. Sale was to eliminate the stock sitting on the shelves.

White primer under the flame camo. Under the white primer was just that... black synthetic. Not a bad stock even in the rough.

I used acetone and a $1 nylon pot scrubber from Wal-Mart. Did it in a rubber maid container and when the acetone got to cloudy I would dump in and pour some fresh in. Worked excellent. No damage what so ever and the checkering is as deep and sharp as it can be on a synthetic stock. Really like my Krypneck camo was a bunch of fun to do as well.
