Camo or walnut?
 

im thinking about getting a Mossberg 930 semiauto shotgun for waterfowl hunting. I cant decide if i want it to be walnut or waterfowl camo. I like them both but im not sure if the camo is worth the extra money. anyone have any opinions on this?

a bazillion game animals feel prey to walnut b for camo. save yer money

I agree the game will not know the difference, but being in a duck blind, lots of moisture I would opt for the camo reason is the camo is synthetic which will not expand like wood will when wet

ditto. a duck hunter's gun take a beating be it in a blind, boat, bumping off decoys walking in and out of a hunting area, etc. My advice is spend the extra couple bucks and get the camo.

while your correct i don't think paying for camo really has much to do with actually concealing your firearm. to me its just a option so we're not all shooting the exact same guns and some alternative material to add a little protection.
the world would be a pretty boring place if all we had was black and walnut everything

thanks for all the advice everyone

Synthetic
 

I was glad when they came out with synthetic stocks. I beat up a lot of wood in a duck and goose blind. Black synthetic or camo is the way to go.

Blued barrels and walnut stocks or my favorite but synthetic is the way to go when it comes to waterfowl IMO.

+1

.........and there you have it.

ive got a weakness for walnut stocked rifles:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Camo/Synthetic Stock for bad weather Duck Hunting.....most of my Rifles are have wood stocks but when bad weather is in the forcast I get out my Synthetic stock Savage Axis XP Camo .223 Rifle for bad weather Coyote Hunting! :D ;)

For waterfowling, synthetic and camo'd is the way to go.

Although I can appreciate the nostalgia of blued and walnut for OTHER purposes, I'm a stainless steel guy through and through, which doesn't usually pair with walnut. I'm not a fan of synthetic stocks, tend to be more of a laminate fan. I actually dislike all black shotguns, and it's hard for me to swallow an all black AR.
