Have 2 NWTF Winchester 1300's. Both laminated stocks, both engraved with the NWTF Turkey scene. One is the standard vent rib, the other is the Buck & Beard model with rifled sites. They both have 22 inch barrels. Great guns, pattern well.

I have 3, I have my favorite turkey gun, my Browning Bps 12 ga 3.5" NWTF in Mossy oak "New" Breakup  that I have used about 98% of the time the last decade, and last year I purchased the same gun barely shot,used in Mossy oak Breakup.I have yet to even take it out,It needs a sight and It came with no chokes.I got it for half of what I paid for mine new and it looks brand new,older man that was downsizing.

I recently purchased a Browning Silver NWTF 3" 24" in Mossy oak Breakup Infinity. I like my Bps more than any other gun I own,rifle,muzzleloader or shotgun.

Thanks. It wasn't me though. An older gentleman I know took a shine to his turkey hunting enthusiasm and gave it to him. He had won it in a gun bash and it was never fired when he gave it to him.

I have the 1998 Remington 11-87.   I retired it some years ago,  but pulled it out last year and played with some newer chokes in it and some TSS shells.    The old gal did well.   Killed a bird at 65 yards deader than a hammer - never even flopped.

I won a Remington 870 Express Supermag at a NWTF banquet about 25 years ago. It has the NWTF logo cut into the receiver. It has been my dedicated turkey gun ever since. Thanks.

I just picked up an Old Trebark 1187. I did not realize it was an NWTF gun of the year in 1992. Be safe....

I just picked up a Browning a5 NWTF 195 of 500. Maybe made in the late 80's early 90's. Not really sure and can't find much information about it at all. But it's pretty awesome!
