Hey guys I'm looking for a little advice on my next purchase. I'm looking at getting a shotgun and I was wondering if there was one out there that serves as a all in 1. I turkey, duck, and upland game hunt. I was looking for something that I could use any time with a quick change of the choke. Thanks for your help

Anymore, they all seem to be multi purpose...at least the pump and autos. Almost all have choke tubes and such.
Figure out how much you want to spend and go from there.
Good luck!

Check into a Remington 870. I use mine for just about everything.

Hard to find a better gun for the price.

Don't know how much of each type game you hunt but if you would use the gun mostly for Turkey and Waterfowl, you may want to buy a gun that shoots 3 1/2" shells. However this type gun would be heavier to carry all day walking after upland game. I have a Browning Gold 3 1/2" 12 gauge, great gun for Turkey, Ducks and Geese, but is a liitle heavy in both gauge and weight for upland hunting.

I use a Mossburg 500 in .12 ga. for the upland birds. Not in to
waterfowl and haven't tried it on turkey yet. Barrel change is a
snap and can be done in the field if you want more than 26 inches.
Barrels are not too pricey for this model and they all come with good
selection of choke tubes.

| Get a Remington 870 super. The shot barrel will take 3 1/2 shells and can change choke tubes. Get the combo and you'll get the rifled slug barrel also. I've had mine sence 1995 and never have had a problem.

| my all around gun, an 835 ultramag, sports a polychoke2, for instant choke adjusting on the fly, with a polychoke and different ammo she covers all bases. I use other guns for more specific hunts but for everything in general its the 835 and poly.

| Remington 870 Super-Mag will shoot any shell, plus the best selection of screw-in chokes. Only real downside in my opinion is the recoil if you shoot 3.5" shells. Any pump gun with the long shells will really cross your eyes!
