I have a heavy barrelled Remington 700 that is nestled into a handmade heavy stock, in some fashion of cammo, a blued action, and a shiney stainless barrel.

The barrel is a re-fit from some olympic style target rifle and has 2 sets of 3 unsightly plugs in the front sight zone, and I would like to cover those for looks, as well as a cammo stock and stainless barrel just don't look right.

Can anyone recommend a smith (preferably in FL) that does a good woodland camo job in Duracoat? I found a guy that will powder coat the metal black, or duracoat 1 color, any ideas?
 
I can't help in regards to recommending a smith, but until someone does (and if you are so inclined) there is a lot of info available on the net about doing it yourself:

Also from that site:
"Question:
I want to professionally camouflage my airsoft replica myself. What exactly do I need to purchase?
Answer:
(1) Pick a "Peel 'n Spray" camo kit. This includes most everything you need including instructional DVD.
(2) If you do not already have an airbrush, get an Airbursh Kit
(3) You will need solvent/cleaner to clean the surface of the gun and to clean your painting equipment.
(4) Paint reducer is recommended. This thins out the paint so it sprays smoother.
(5) Clear coat is recommended for an even professional look and to protect
your masterpiece."
