I just restored an old 30-30 that had 10 year old camo tape on it that had basically turned to glue. Goof-off took it right off and brought it back to new. I oiled the crap out of it and it is like it never happened!

Goof Off = naptha in an expensive can. Just buy naptha from the paint/hardware store, should work real well for getting tape goop off.
With I had known that, I have a can of Naptha in the garage and did not even think about using it :bash:

I've used WD40 on glue residue before (not on a gun though) and it's worked for meThis worked for me and it didn't stip the stock or barrel of finish. I would go this route. A little easier on the gun.

try Methylethyl Keytone aka MEK,
should be able to get it at a hardware or marine supply store.
that stuff disolves most ashesives.... its an industrial enamal/laquer/resin reducer..... when i was building boats we used to cover molds with tin foil held in place by a spray glue similar to the adhesive used in duct tape.... when i had to clean the molds, MEK worked like a charm... just wear a respirator and gloves. they call it cancer-in-a-can for a reason.
we taped our guns once and used acetone(aka the key ingrediant in finger nail polish removal).... but that was for a week-long period

:yeah:
Try an orange based adhesive remover before trying something thats a harsh solvent based product. I sell all of these products, there are certain finishes and varnishes that the stronger solvents will eat through in an instant. The orange adhesive remover is a mild yet effective product. It would be wise to start there rather than take a chance with your stock or barrel finish. As already mentioned, fire up the hairdryer to loosen it up. Better safe than sorry. You will most likely hurt the finish with MEK (Methyl Ethyl Ketone) but that just gives you an excuse to refinish and make it look bada$$
