My new custom dedicated turkey gun is ready!
« on: May 04, 2021, 12:41:26 PM »
Check out my new dedicated turkey gun that is finally ready. I won this Winchester SX3 on Gunbroker a few months ago and it originally had a Mossy Oak marsh finish. I wanted to set up a nice 20 gauge for my son to use in the future so I let him pick the camo finish he wanted. I showed him some choices and he picked Mossy Oak Greenleaf. I sent the gun to Tarjac and it arrived back a few days ago and they did an amazing job. I can't find a flaw in the finish. In the meantime I bought a Trijicon RMR, Shotkam (will mostly be used on my bow), a few chokes and some Apex TSS to get it going. I hope to get to the patterning board before this season ends but if not it will be ready next year. It will go good with the rest of my Winchester SX family lol.

Thanks guys. Bink the SX4 20 is the middle gun in my pic but a 26" barrel. I really like that gun and it shoots dead on POA/POI at 40 yards with the bead. I hope I like the RMR with some time in the field but I will say the Aimpoint on my other gun has easier and better features. Can't wait to get some time at the range with it.

Nice setup, I have been looking for the sx4 20 gauge "universal" 24" for 18 months and can't locate one but did just locate the 26" "universal" in mobuc, I love the look of that gun. I am tempted to buy it but I know soon as I do,I will find the 24" model.

Thank you! Winchester and Browning are a year behind orders. I am waiting on a Woodland camo gun and they said expect a year wait. Probably the same with the 24" barrel models. Give them a call and ask they are great to deal with on the phone.

I am playing with the RMR and I am liking it much better. The auto adjust works perfectly and will be great in the woods. You can turn it on when you work a bird and no need to worry about adjusting the brightness up or down.

Very nice. Tarjac really does top notch work. Nothing but good things to say about them.

Love it! Looks like TarJac did a fantastic job on the dip. I really like the matte finish, i have noticed a lot of factory camo dips look almost glossy and the shine in bright sun is noticeable.I recently handled an sx4 and really likes how it fit and pointed, and was suprised by the light weight. If i didn't have my heart set on a new 16 gauge A5, i would seriously consider one as my next do all shotgun. May you have much success with it for years to come!
