So if you could get any shotgun you wanted and price didn't matter for turkey hunting for the 2019 season which shotgun would you buy ?

I'd find a used 870 Wingmaster 12 gauge magnum. You can find them sometimes in nearly new condition. I'd spend the rest of the money on a good choke and variety of shells to find the best pattern out to 40 yards max. If you have to have camo you could find one of those as well.
If you make everything easy how do you know when your good at anything?

Looking for a newer gun than 15-20 years old

I'm interested in Remingtons new V3 turkey pro.  It's supposed to come out next month.  Already has a rail, 22" barrel, oversized controls and a lifetime warranty.  I've shot my buddy's 26" V3 and was impressed with it.

Next would be a Beretta 350 turkey gun.  It too has a rail and can shoot 3.5" if you want.  I think it's 24" barrel.

I have 870's in 20 and 12, Benellis, Berettas and a Browning, but the V3 really interests me.

Suit yourself but plastic and pistol grips don't kill Gobblers.

No, but it looks cool in the pictures

If price doesn't matter than a Browning Cynergy turkey edition.  You can flip a switch to go from a long range to short range choke.  Both chokes that come with the gun work very well.  The 24" barrel Cynergy is 6-8" shorter than a pump or auto with a 24" barrel.  The Browning gold trigger is sweet.  Remember with an O/U if you ever have a miss fire just pull the trigger again....no need to pump or chamber another round.  You can choose between vented rib, ghost ring or it has a rail if want to mount an optic.  I use optics so I appreciate the rail being on the barrel.  I like the MOBU dura touch camo.  It has a good feel and grip to it.  They are expensive but they are worth it if it's in your budget.

I'm actually getting the gun I want for Christmas this year. I've got a $1,000 budget, so I picked a Stevens m301 12 gauge. Gonna put a sling on it, a Kicks gobbling thunder .660, and either a scope or good fiber optic sights. Gonna paint it.

I came in way under budget and have a fun project ahead!  O0

Cool idea, but I would lean towards a 20 for a lightweight project gun.

I just got a Beretta Xtreme Plus A400 recently and it is a fine shooting shotgun, I'm going to try a .670 Indian Creek Choke and Apex blends in it over Christmas to see how it patterns. Not sure if that is a gun you have checked out yet but I can report back after I pattern if it is something your looking at.

Gobble!

And well you should be with the V3. Particularly at it`s price point, the V3`s one of, if not the, best guns going IMO. My walnut has been flawless. It should be a great system as a dedicated turkey gun, particularly so with the included optics.

Link to the V3 turkey pro? I can't find info about it.

Not much out on it yet. Suggest you google, " Remington V3 Turkey Pro Randy Wakeman " . He has some descriptive info in his " Randy Wakeman Outdoors " . You may have to scroll down to get to the text of the article.
