I have a Beretta a300 semi. Just bought it last year on the down low, but my wife found out anyway. I have a Mossberg 835 ultimag.  And I have an over-under that is pure death on turkeys, but it will kick the living daylights out of you. I think I'm good on turkey guns.

Do I have to write it down???  Kinda admitting to the doctor when they ask how often you drink alcohol... it was much easier when I'd tell them I worked at least 13 days a month, 24 hrs, therefore max was 17 days a month...

.410 Yildez single shot Sumtoy choke and Burris red dot
.410 Savage 301T single shot, Jebs choke and cheap red dot
.410 Hatfield single shot ( this ones not set up with a red dot or choked...does it count?)
20 ga Smith&Wesson semi auto, Sumtoy choke and Burris dot
20 ga Baikal single shot, Sumtoy and Burris red dot
20 ga Savage 220a. Single shot, gun manufactured in 1940's. Fixed choke, 2 3/4" gun. No red dot.
Benelli SBE1 that I have a turkey choke for, but it hasn't been carried for 1o years since my 20's arrived.

So my official answer. 
I only carry one turkey gun in the woods at a time.

Brian- do yourself a favor and build a 20 gauge 870 and put a red dot on it, and pattern it with some TSS 9 shot. It will change your world.

Agree.  And next will be .410's with 9 1/2 TSS!  Rig weighs about 4 1/2 pounds...loaded.  Picture may not show the pattern, it was 199 hits in a 10 1/2" circle at 35 yards.

I have only 2, my trusty old 870 that has been repainted by me several times. Choked with a Rhino .660 and has great Hevi Shot mag blend patterns. I recently bought and A5 I am liking. Struggling a bit to get a choke and shell I like.
