There used to be a guy on here named Ron Baker from Minnesota that made barrel stickers. Does anyone have a contact number for him? Thanks, Randy

I think good barrel stickers make other people think that I shoot a lot better than I do. For me, this game is all about looking good (when you shoot like I do :p) & barrel stickers from @trap4ever are awesome.
Ah, yes. The Flotest school of Trap. If you can't shoot well at least look good. That's for me. What sticker should I put on my Browning? Perazzi? ;-)

Barrel stickers were a big fad a few years ago. They seem to have gone into a disappearing act these days.
However, I've still got a "Baby Onboard" sticker on the barrel of my old Krieghoff Model 32.......

I'm not advertising anything, I do it to kind of lighten the mood and not take this shooting thing too seriously, also I had a guy at my club that kept picking my gun up to go shoot with it because he had one similar. By the way, mine says Here Comes The Boom.

....... also I had a guy at my club that kept picking my gun up to go shoot with it because he had one similar. .......
I watched a Senior shooter take a Perrazi off of the rack, and go shoot with it.... meanwhile the real owner came by and was. frantic over the loss..... the shooter came back and did not even apologize. I could not believe his behavior.

I also witnessed a stranger attempt to walk off with a 95% trap gun and leave his 50% unit in it's place. We stopped him but he swore up and down that he did not realize the mistake...... yeah right.

I guess stickers would be useful in these cases. I have noticed more guns in trunks between rounds in the last 3 years.

I ordered a bunch of barrel stickers from Custom vinyl decals vehicle graphics window sticker - they did really a good job! You can design your own right on their website.
Ohhhhh...those barrel stickers. A guy at the club I shoot at also makes those stickers, I thought his prices of $3 ea or 2 for $5 was high until looking at the link you supplied. I can think of more subtle ways of marking my guns for identification; but then I don't have fuzzy dice hanging from my rear view mirror either.

A regular I know at the local trap range told me that his son took the wrong shotgun home after a shoot because it was a shoot for teenagers and many of them were using the same gun (Browning CX). They didn't realize it until the Sheriff called and now the gun is stuck in the recovery office for a few months. A sticker with your name on the barrel or some other unique wordings might be useful.

I won't mind a sticker that shows the American flag, something I can put on during the holidays.

If you are just going to stick a brand name on the barrel and try to pretend that you are a sponsored shooter, well, I guess it is your money and your gun and you can do whatever you want. I'm not much of a poser myself so I don't do it. :)

Must have definitely been a trap shooter. That's not typical of a sporting clay shooter.

Enters: POPCORN. MAJOR POPCORN.

I wouldn't mind getting a sticker, but so far the only stickers I can find are ridiculous. "Whack em" "Flight Controller" "Quack Quack". I wouldn't mind getting an American flag, but can't find one. Someone picked up my gun at league this year and didn't realize my O/U was different from his 1100. Good thing I was there.

People picking your gun up and shooting it or someone walking off with your gun and when confronted insists that it's theirs? This is the reason that I have an ice pick, folding shovel and alcohol in my range bag......Joe

My friend Mal picked up my Max TA and shot a trap at the PA State shoot and came back bitching that he couldn't hit a damned thing, wondering what was wrong, until he discovered the mistake. He was squad leader then took the score sheet and headed the wrong way to the other bank. That's Macomb for you..
