I have this Winchester 1300, it's in realtree camo. I haven't seen any others like it maybe one or two. Is this worth anything? Because I wanted to sell it and use the money toward a Mossberg 500 turkey model.

It's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Not trying to be "smart" about it but that's the honest truth. Look at the older camo Remington's. Those guns aren't worth near what guys are paying for them in my eyes but they pull a premium for reasons well beyond my logic. Same thing with the Ruger skeleton stocked guns. You find a guy with some nostalgic pull and who knows? Either way, good luck with the sale. Personally, I think you've got a great turkey gun as is but fully understand the desire to get something new. For some guys, myself included, it's just one of those things.

Judging from your picture at least one Tom thought it was to die for

If it were me I would keep on running it. A mossy ain't gonna kill one any deader. But it is what makes you happy and if you want the mossberg then get the mossberg.

Probably a good call. I run an 870 because I got a good deal on it. It's plain Jane but kills turkeys just as good as super black eagles. I'd love a newer nicer gun but mine is just fine and effective until I can afford another.

I'd definitely stick with the 1300 to me the Mossberg is heavy and not well balanced the thumb saftey was the only thing I liked about the Mossberg I had.

Love me a 1300 dressed in Advantage camo!
To the OP - the old RealTree is cool. I had a 1300, traded it on a Mossy 500, then went back to a 1300.
While I hunt with a single shot now, I wouldn't hunt any other pump gun. Mine is the Buck/Tom edition
dressed in New Breakup.

Nice camo patterns on those 1300's. What chokes are you using in those? I'm using the factor full choke and getting good results from it. The original owner must not have lubed the threads because I can't get it out I have a factory extra full for it too but can't change it. I heard if I put the muzzle in solvent it can work the threads lose. Any truth to that do you know?

Thanks, I haven't seen one with the same pattern anywhere else. That's what made be think is was rare.
My friends father has a 1300 NWTF edition with the blued barrel and receiver with the fancy wood stock don't know how else to explain the stock on that one. But it's really nice. I've that model a couple times.

Quote from: longbeardbuster on January 28, 2018, 08:41:07 PMBe careful as some solvents will mess up the camo finish. Might try taking it to a gunsmith or find a wrench that can be used on a ratchet. I've got one but no clue where it came from.Quote from: eddie234 on January 28, 2018, 06:23:49 PM
