My Beretta is matte black and I've never had an issue.

I own both camo and non-camo shotguns. The finish on the firearm makes no difference, the important thing is to sit in the shadows and be STILL.

I hunt with one of each every year and don't really notice and negative effects with either one.

I can honestly say I have never shot a bird with a camo gun as of now.  Either been black or wood/blued. The only thing I've found as far as the turkeys complain, is the headache they get????

I've never owned a camo firearm.  Haven't had any issues yet with spooking turkeys.

Been turkey hunting for about ten years now & all my birds were killed using a flat black gun except the 1st one which was a woodland camo Mossberg 500 & this year I wrapped my 870 with camo tape.  But I am planning on having it dipped in Mossy Oak Infinity for next season.  Not only for the camo but also for weather protection.

I've killed a lot of turkeys and most where with a mat black 870.   No problems for me.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

Never owned a camo gun. In my opinion, any matte finish will work.

I've owned and killed turkeys with both and I don't think you'll see a difference.

My late father killed a boatload of gobblers with an original 870 Special Purpose.
