[QUOTE="Hangfire, post: 4227680, member: 27673"] I turkey hunted maybe 8-10 times in 3-4 year period back in the very early 90's....got two birds. I didn't want to mess up my Browning A5 so I went to a pawn shop and bought a well used 2 3/4" Winchester 840 single shot that had a 30" barrel and a full choke.....got my buddy at the gunsmith shop to reblue it for me for nothing and I refinished the wood and it turned out looking pretty good. I shot max load Activ Penetrator lead #6's through it (still have 32 rounds) and I swear that thing would kill on one end and maim on the other.....the recoil was pretty stout. Gave the shotgun to my son in Ga. in 2009 and I still have my camo turkey vest and some box and slate calls......dam near choked to death trying to use a mouth diaphragm once but that's a story for another day. :) [ATTACH type="full" alt="w840.jpg"]459280[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="activ.jpg"]459281[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
