Default Your first turkey gun?

i am going into my first turkey hunting season and i am using a 20 gauge Rossi, single shot, 3" Magnum shells, Remington, 1 1/4 oz. of #6 shot. I patterned it today. The first tom i see is dead within 25 yards. So i was just wondering, what was your first turkey gun? and does anyone have this gun?

Savage 20ga, 28"bbl, modified choke, and 3" Win Supreme #4's. Killed my first bird with it at 35yds. Since then, I've bought a Mossberg 835, it kills them just as dead as my Savage 20ga.

just got two shotguns, not sure which to take for my first turkey season this year... i got a Charles Daly maxi-mag in break up camo, and a remington 11-87 3", but it's not camo and i don't want to tape it, so i am thinking about the charles daly... both are 12 gauge.

My first turkey gun was a Mod. 97 Winchester. It still hangs on the rack. I wouldn't hesitate to use it again.
