I've killed several with a benelli supersport, and those of you who own or have this gun know it has a high gloss finish and a nickel reciever. I think JW said it all in his post. I now shoot a camo benelli supernova for turkeys, but thats only because of personal preference and the fact that I didn't like the idea of putting my high dollar supersport through that kind of abuse.

I'd say if you have a factory matt finish then your prob going to be ok... If your gun has any kind of glossy spots on it. Then I would say definetly camo it... Either with paint or tape...

I spent to much money, time in the woods andfighting with my ol lady to take a chance on screwing up my hunt because I was to cheap or to lazy to take the finish on my gun out of the picture...

I guess it all boils down to. How serious and howhard you have to work for your birdsssss
