I only own the one, so it is my everything shotgun. Though since I had it drilled and tapped and added a scope to it I have thought of getting another.

Favorite over last 35yrs is a tough one but would have to go with my BPS 10ga with 24" barrel it's a heavy gun that killed on both ends. But last few years it has been a 11-87 20ga with a 26" barrel.

Remington 870 Super Max Gobbler  dipped in predator green camo. Primos tightwad choke tube, Hevi shot magblend 3.5"    Gets it done.

 `05 12 gauge Remington 870 Super Mag SPS-T, MO obsession camo, thumbhole stock. Tasco Red Dot ( cheap, but came with the gun and works great ), 23" barrel, original .660 Jellyhead shooting 3" Hevi-13 #6. It`s a tank but a great turkey gun for my style of hunting ( mostly set up and wait `em out as opposed to running through the woods!).

Dedicated and favorite. When I take the BPS 10g out of the cabinet it is about turkeys or turkey shells
Got her a new dress this year before season too. Shoot TSS 8X9 through her with a IC 690 tube. Yep the girls heavy, but I like her curves!

As much as I enjoy the new Mossberg 20 gauge pump with 2.75" loads of TSS, this has been my favorite dedicated turkey gun. H&R 12 gauge with a factory dipped original Bottomland camo. Shoots 3" Hevi #7s. William at Sumtoy did a great d/t job for me and installed fiber optic rifle sights.

Shooting a 20 gauge 870 youth model with a 21 inch barrel for the last 10 years.  Hunted with a 835 for the 20 years before that.  Started with an 1100 12 gauge.  Hard to beat the 870.

My dedicated turkey gun is a 12 ga. 28 inch barrel Benelli SBE ii with a Burris FF3 on a speed bead mount, and a Sumtoy .650, with a claw sling.  It does a number on turkeys when I've got some to shoot at.

Luck counts, good or bad.

My dedicated turkey gun, I won at a DU banquet of all places back in 2008. It is a Winchester Model 1300 12 ga. with 26" barrel. I shoot the original super full choke mounted with a Tru-Glo Gobblestopper red dot sight. It is in Realtree camo I believe and does a real number on the ol' longbeards shooting Remington Nitro Turkey loads 3" #5's. Have thought about changing to some TSS or TSS/Lead mix, but it does such a great job out to 45 yards why mess with a good thing, right!?

I guess I'm an odd ball, but my go to gun is my Winchester 1300 12 ga. I'm still killing turkeys with the Federal Heavyweight straight 7's.
