I know this has probably been done to death (yes, I have read several threads) but here goes.....never been much of a shotgun guy, but I'm starting to hear some gobblers calling my name. I'm wanting to start hunting them (probably by next spring season, possibly this fall).
Anyway, I'm currently leaning towards the Mossberg 535 turkey/waterfowl combo. My other choices are a Remington 870 or Mossy 500.
I don't know if I "need" the 3 1/2" chamber but something is telling me to get it in case.....well anyway.....
Turkey is really the only hunting I have any interest in so a "turkey only" gun would do me just fine. It just seems I've seen some decent deals on the combos.
I do want it to be in camoflauge as well, and one more thing................I acquired a gift card from Gander Mountain (Bleh! LOL) so I'll use the gift card to knock off the high marked up BS that is Gander gouging....also, will look into price matching if they do anything like that....AND I will not be in a hurry so hopefully I can wait for a sale and not get gouged too much...
Oh, price is a big factor. I talked the better half into a shotgun ....because I had to use that gift card on something LOL..... and funds are tight so it will more than likely go into layaway, and needs to stay under $500, preferably less...just dont wanna go "too" cheap and end up with junk.
Again, something really is telling me I want the 535 Mossy, so talk me in/out of it.
