Default Name your turkey gun.

Im interest in hearing what gun everyone uses on turkeys, and what guns they have tried before and didnt like. i would start a poll but i know i will leave out some big gun maker and it wouldnt be that accurate of a poll.

1100 Remington 2.75" 12 gauge. Had choke tubes installed and lengthened the forcing cone. 2 Mossberg 835' s and a Winchester Mod. 12 (1935 edition). Killed birds with all of them and liked them all. Don' t have the Remington any more so must have liked it the least. I still use the 835' s and the model 12.

To take you literally I named my gun " meatstick" . It is a Remington 870 Express Magnum 12GA and I shoot Federal Premium 3" mag #4' s through it with a Rem turkey choke.

To add, I named my decoys after my kids (hens Grace & Sydney, jake Spencer)

Simple---" old faithful" .

Mossberg C-lect choke Model 195, 12 gauge, as full as I can crank the selector. Equipped with Tru-glo beads, shooting Winchester HV 6 shot.

After a day at the range, the name changes to " old cannon"
