    GForce GF2P 18.5" 12 Gauge Pump

    I just picked this up, bought it for our son, I'm surprised as to how well the fit and finish is for a Turkey gun, we'll take out to the range later and I'll follow up on this post.

    I have around $150 in this including Shipping, tax and transfer.

    stuff like that are good as back ups to your back ups - but God help you if you're relying on something like that as your EDC in a long term/lifetime SHTF situation - just won't be standing up to the necessary rigors involved .....

    much less be a multi-generational weapon to be handing down thru your family - which needs to be a serious consideration these dayz >>> got my Dad's uncle's Win Model 12 that passed a 100 a decade ago - it'll be around another 100 if all things go right .....

    Ditto on this!! There are plenty of 870's and the like that have already built a rep, While a good price, think spare parts might be tough to get, that, and not sure if I would trust my life to a Turkey gun. ymmv.

    if nothing else - check the market for shotguns with store chain names on them - like Sears - they are all US made copies of the older OEMs that were popular when marketed - usually none of the actual parts were different - they'd do a different stock and forearm look >>> plenty were sold because of the Sears charge card and layaway policy .....

    I got rid of my 870's, they all sucked. I like the Mossy 500's, which was my first pump Back In High School. I got a Wingmaster in '76 that I wore out and pawned off.I'd buy another 870 Wingmaster in a minute though

    I'm confused, you say 870's suck but would buy another in a minute?

    I have an old Rem 870 Youth Model I bought for my kid as Home Defense and still hunts great. But i also have a couple Mossberg Silver reserves that are great for grouse and pheasant. An Old Stevens SS, and some Mossberg Bolt goose guns. But a couple years ago I bought a Stoeger M3500 for Turkey is a great little gun smooth Inertia Drive Action like their parent company Benelli. it may be made in Turkey, but it is still very well made about the only thing I can't shoot through it are some of the low velocity short brass shells. Just not enough oomph for that 3.5" chamber and the Inertia drive, but is great for them 3.5" can be nice for them big toms and high-flying Canadians.
