[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5290731, member: 1409"] As an aside, until my eyes became so old I needed an optical sight, my dedicated turkey gun was a custom side-by-side 12 ga with 2 3/4" chambers. Bought it @ 1993 to be both my dedicated squirrel and turkey shotgun. Very lightweight, easy to carry. Fixed chokes, one barrel "full", the other "extra full". I'd still be using it if it had been practical to mount a low-magnification "shotgun" scope on it. But it was easier to just buy one of the specialized "turkey" shotguns, already drilled & tapped for a scope and/or a picatinny rail. Most of my turkey hunting today is done with a 20 ga dedicated "turkey" gun (with an optical sight). It's almost like carrying & shooting a .22 rifle, but hits more like an old-school 12 ga turkey gun. [/QUOTE]
