I added a FF3 to my 11-87 and looking forward to taking a gobbler with it

Added a new turkey gun to the arsenal.

I've been running my old Mossberg 500 20 gauge for years that I built into my dedicated turkey slayer. This year, I decided to do a budget build 12 gauge.

Picked up a Tristar Cobra 3 Force Pump. Removed the spring that "forces" the forend. Added a Mossy Oak Graphics vinyl wrap in Greenleaf, a Glenda Green sling in Greenleaf, A Godagrip cheek pad, an AT3 Tactical rd-50 red dot, and have a JEBS Headhunter choke I'm about to put in it.

Thing kicks like a mule but I'm loving how light it is with only an 18.5" barrel. And the patterns have been great with LBXR #6 out to 50+

I don't post much and can't get the pics to attach lol
Jesus is the answer!

Just ditched my rifle sights for a red dot, got some snake gaiters to wear with my leather hikers instead of the rubbers, and a diaphragm call pouch. No more rattling cases in pockets.

Also going to try a bladder style hose for a Nalgene bottle as my water supply. My only worry is noise from the water sloshing. If so I'll just go back to the platypus hoser system.

I bought a 12 pack of new socks. That's about it. Gobblers haven't changed neither has my equipment

Got new NMG pullover (replacement) new mouth calls, getting my gun dipped and cerakote, new Glenda gun sling, woodpecker call, probably buy some green leaf pants, new lacrosse grange (replacement)

Who knows what else lol usually pick up a pot call every year and I think I still need to buy more shells.

Decided to update some of my 20+ year camo, replaced a broken pop-up blind, then bought a Mossberg SA-28 :) to try later in the season. Being retired now for a few years, I plan on hunting more this year.

Well I unfortunately added a new to me again BPS 10 gauge. There's a backstory here.

Sometime in the late '90's or early '00's my best friend called me and told me that a LGS had bought a Browning collection and that it included a factory BPS turkey gun. I bought it and never hunted it. A couple years later he asked if I'd let his dad borrow it to turkey hunt with so I lent it to him.

About a year after they both started leaning on me to sell it so dad could have it. I finally caved in and sold it to my buddy to give to his dad with the stipulation that when he died I get it back.

Unfortunately he passed away three weeks ago and my buddy gave me the gun last Saturday. The good thing is he used in to kill several birds.

That is a great gun, smooth action and not as heavy as the semi's. I regretfully sold mine a few years back and regret it. Good luck with it. Try the Winchester Double X number 5's. Deadly combo
