Title: Got tired of waiting
Post by: ghillie on March 10, 2012, 10:23:36 AM
I wanted to get a shotgun just for turkey hunting and in early Janurary I made a decision about which one to get.  Went to a local store that carries them and found out they are on back order.  I went ahead and placed an order for one.  Well it still has not arrived and there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel and the season is getting close.  So I went ahead and canceled that order and found another gun that is in stock and sitting at another store here in Iowa.  It is already shipped and should be here on Tuesday....

Went with another SBEII.  This one is matte black, 24".  Steady grip stock, magnum stainless sure cycle.  Already have the FF3 for it as well as an IC .665 from my other SBEII.  Also have the Hevi choke and will pattern on Wed...it's supposed to be like 70 degrees..

Good luck Steve! Sounds like a killer combo! Enjoy your new gun, and good luck sighting her in. :icon_thumright:
