What do I need to do to get mine sent in? I have a Maxus and an Xbolt both that the duratouch needs to be redone. Do I call, email them or what? Take them up to Woods & Water. They packaged mine, shipped it off and I had it back in about 4 weeks. Woods & Water charged me $13 for the shipping.

Well, got the gun back. They replaced the stocks with non duratouch. They claimed the redipped the gun, but if they did, they need to get out of the business. All the worn places in the finish around the loading port and ejection port are still there. It appears the barrel and gun are old mossy oak, and the stocks are the new variety. I didn't expect a new gun, but I did expect them to do what they said they were gonna do. I guess I should just be happy I have my gun back and the stocks no longer are tarpaper. Gonna give them a call and express my displeasure today. That chit is terrible!!!

If I had one these I think I would have ordered a B&C stock and sent the bill to Browning.

On those Duratouch SX3's, is the whole gun coated in Duratouch or just the stock and fore end? If the receiver and barrel aren't coated then I can maybe see why they cheaped out and only redipped the stock set. Did they damage the gun while working on it or was the wear n' tear already present? I can definitely see your side also, especially if somebody at the factory specifically said they were gonna strip and re-dip the entire shotgun. I wouldn't want them touching it again regardless and would lean towards having it dipped in bottomland like you really wanted OR just dipping the barrel and action to match your new stock set.

The duratouch was on the stock set only. But I was told by them that they no longer manufacture the old MOBU and would redip the gun to match. I asked if I could pay and just have it dipped in bottomland and was told no. Even in the repair order it lists “strip and recamouflage” as being completed. Someone signed off on it. Maybe it was a gross error, but I don’t suspect so. We will see. I got ya! Yeah if they told you they'd redip to match I'd be pissed off too...good luck with it bud, I hope they get it straightened out for you.
