I think it's interesting to see just how this breaks down in this crowd. Everyone has a favorite of everything they use, and that's the American way! You can't sell a Ford to a Chevy guy!
I would like to vote for 2. I chose MB for me, I love my 835. I love my Rem 870 compact 20 gauge as I have gotten it to be a shooter and my son smoked a turkey with it.
I feel your pain! I voted Mossberg because of the killer patterns my 835 produces. But there are alot of 870s in my safes and only one Mossberg. For that matter I have a Winchester 1300 that I love also! So many choices!
I really don't have a favorite turkey gun. My favorite shotguns overall would be Berettas.
I Love my 870 SPS-T but I own a 835 that's laid down a bunch of birds and they both have a home till I'm gone but I sure am liking a Benelli M2 and will own one in the next year.
I vote for two, also..
Benelli.. SBE or SBE ll.. 12ga.
BPS 10ga.
1. Mossberg 835
2. Benelli SBE 2
I voted mossberg because this is a turkey forum. While I think that mossberg is as good a turkey gun as one can ask for, I also love grouse and woodcock hunting and for that I love those Franchi and beretta o/u's and I also have a little Benelli Legacy 28 ga that sweet. But I am not so blind that I am hung up on only one brand.
Mossberg for me. I've been using my Mossy 500 for the past 34 years. First used it for small game then turned it into a turkey killing machine 16 years ago.
Now I have an 835 and a 20ga Mossy
870 Express Super Mag.
Remington
Ol Mossy :icon_thumright:
Mossberg for me.
1st Mossberg for me, then would come Benelli. You cant beat the killer patterns of the Mossberg's, and you cant beat the looks and quality of a benelli.
I wanted to vote for two myself. I voted for Mossberg cause I love my 835 and was the first shotgun I bought myself. I added some things to it this year to make it a turkey gun. I would also vote Remington because all the things you can do with it and Remingtons are excellent guns. Going to buy a 870 20 gauge this off season to set up for turkeys.
Beretta shotguns here..
Remington Wingmaster 870 21in barrel, polished, hastings .665..... may actually be my favorite gun that i own.... Been turkey hunting with it since the late 70's. Probably killed more turkeys with this gun than any other.
I have two favorite turkey guns and both are Berettas.
I voted Remington as my favorite. But my 835 is my best shooter. And it's still a heck of a gun. Hasn't failed me yet, and everything works like it should.
for pumps I like my Winchester 1300 with the 22" choke tubed barrel with the rifle sights on it. For me those sights are low enough on the barrel I get a good solid "cheek weld" on the stock to help with recoil, and the fit is as good as I have found in pumps. mine is matte black with satin walnut lumber.
for semi autos I like the beretta 391's and Xtremas
remington 1187Sm for me.
Benelli SBEII

1. Mossberg 835
2. Benelli SBE 2
Same choice! I own both too and both are cerified turkey smashers! Plus with a simple choke change, my SBE II will slam the geese and ducks and whatever else I feel like pointin her at. :z-guntootsmiley: Used to be the same thing with the 835 but she's all turkey murderer now. :newmascot:

Mossberg for me.. :z-guntootsmiley:
Mossberg 835
Remington 20ga 870 youth
My favorite is my beretta 390, but I retired her and have been toting a stoeger for the last 3 seasons.
Mossberg for me, turkey slayer is my 835 aka scatterbrained and my deer slug gun is my 695 bolt action aka kaw-liga. Lol, but like alot of the others i'm also pimpin out an 870 20guage.
