Title: Ultimate DIY Turkey Gun
Post by: busta biggun on March 15, 2017, 05:08:20 PM
When I read the first line I thought, oh no,..... here we go again. But,... as I read on, I found this article interesting. What do you guys think?

He's balls deep at about $1200 if he got the gun for $222...

I got my 25th anniversary SBE2 for $1225 and it'll do just fine out to the same distances he talks about and I use the heck out of it for ducks and geese.

Won't make the guys at turkey camp go 'oooooooooh', but Im not in to for that.

The second sentence got me, "where's the fun in that?" Any gobbler I call into 30 yards is all the fun I want when I'm turkey hunting, regardless of the gun. I'm still using my $170 shotgun with a few cans of Rustoleum and a cheap ghost ring sight.

Scroll down to the Turkey Guns / 20 gauge Turkey Guns threads below. Nothing new. It can be a fun project.

 I am interested in that vinyl wrap. I wonder how it would stick to my krylon camo job?

Not too crazy about that type of stock on a turkey gun, but not my gun, so not my issue to deal with. I didn't think I would like the Shurshot stock, but fell in love with it when patterning my gun, so who knows?

I do like the camo job on it, though!
