I am thinking about putting one on my gun.Just wanted  anyones opinion on the pluses and drawbacks of doing that verses putting a regular scope on it.

Take it from a guy who hates optics or sights on a shotgun, it's a great sight!  Put mine through a lot last year and it's still good as new.

That's what I wanted to hear.As I get older I am having a harder time with just using the bead on my shotgun, especially when the turkey is within 20 yards.

Highball,

I advanced to bifocals 4 years ago and noticed the same thing, as a result I would lift my head a bit to see the bird better and ended up shooting much lower than I like. After reading a bunch here I settled on a FFIII on my Benelli M2 and have never looked back.

All my turkey guns have a fast fire on, no draw backs that i've found. Had to switch hit and shoot a bird left handed this year and it would have been a whole lot harder without the simple reddot.

Gobble!

No negatives here. I have the guard on mine.

I just ordered one to replace a FF 2 on my 870.   :z-guntootsmiley:

Best turkey sight out there!

Well I was in the same situation last year trying to decide, I always just used a single fiber bead but last at age 60 I need to get a better sight picture, I mounted the FF3 it was easy to see that I made the right choice. Spend the more on it and not a cheap nock off. Good Luck with it.

At almost a third of the cost of a FF3 I'd recommend looking at the Mueller Quick Shot.  It comes in black or camo.  :OGturkeyhead:

The issue with the mueller is it sits MUCH MUCH higher then the FF and is much bigger. If those things do not bother you it is a fine red dot for sure

FF3 is a great turkey sight!  I had a M2 20 gauge drilled and tapped, added the Marlin base and wouldn't look back as it has worked out great and especially when it's different folks getting behind this gun a lot of times throughout the season.
