Your first Turkey gun, do you still have it, or wish you still had it?

My first Turkey killer was a 12 ga. Remington 870 Wingmaster my Grandfather bought new in 1952. Plain barrel, modified choke, bead front sight. He used it for years as a pheasant and slug gun for deer.
When he stopped hunting he passed it on to me and I killed my 1st gobbler with it in 1982.
Still have it and it's in better shape than I am!

The first turkey I ever killed was with a Remington 1100 12ga I borrowed from my best friends dad. My first real turkey gun was a Remington 870 Super express magnum 12ga. I've killed most of my turkeys with it but have retired it and switched to an 870 20ga youth model. I really like carrying that little gun.

I hunted my first 4 years as a kid with many close calls, and finally sh out my first spring gobbler when I was 15 with a Winchester Black Shadow with a short stock. My father still has it and I will use it from time to time. Its ugly and noisy. My buddy nicknamed it the black rattler, because of the dang noisy forearm.
But I still love that gun, and can't wait to teach my son how to hunt with it.
