I'm using an old 870 Wingmaster. I bought a 26" vent-rib replacement barrel with a full choke and camo stock, pump, and barrel sleeves.

i have a remington 870 express mag turkey gun...12 ga...only takes 3 inchers but its called a mag....it has the camo stocks and a 21 inch barrel...light as heck and is nice to carry and manuver in the woods....and it doesnt kick as bad as youd think.....i shoot 3 inchers and they dont bother me....then again i thought my friends 338UM was fun to shoot...and it patterns like you wouldnt believe shooting the extended turkey choke reminton had in it...its my favorite turkey gun.....and i used to hunt with a mossberg.....they are to heavy and too bulky....i retired mine to small game hunting and maybe deer hunting if my area goes slug gun only......which rumor has it may.....it feels like a little kids gun but is full sized....i love it......

I use an 870 express mag. I painted it camo and it works great. I just wish I had a shorter barrel on it. The standard bbl is 28" plus the turkey choke tube.

I just got the new Mossberg 935 autoloader for turkey hunting this spring, on sale at Cabela's . It has a 22" barrel, turkey choke, sling, gun safety lock and case, in Mossy Oak New Break Up (barrel, stock and forepiece). I patterened it with the choke that came with the gun, not the greatest pattern at 40 yards, plenty of kill power at 20 and 30 yards, so I ordered a Rhino .695 choke and some Nitro 4x5x7 HeviShot to see if that will make it better. I'm also planning to polish the barrel as discussed elsewhere on this forum.

I've shot an Ithaia Model 37 for nearly 40 years. Can't beat it! I've owned and/or shot others (Remington, Mossberg, Winchester, and others), but I keep comming back to that old trusted friend. Its the only turkey gun I own, now.
