You can send them a Facebook message as well and they will answer back pretty quick.

 

[SKFOOTER]

Whittakers doesn't have any.

its the same gun just doesn't have the NWTF graphics on it. I have a lot of NWTF decals I could send you to make it look the same.

 

[SKFOOTER]

Thanks Mike, but I'm not gonna pay that much for it.

 

[Dover_Mike]

cant say I blame you one bit.

Before any of you spend that kind of money on that Winchester 20ga, take a look at the Weatherby 20ga turkey special:

I am extremely pleased with my Weatherby, and it cosmetically looks much nicer after I immediately removed those ugly sights, and have a Burris Fastfire sight instead.

Thanks for the suggestion Wes, but I want a shotgun with full camouflage and a conventional stock.

Have you looked at the Mossberg 935s? I got me one with pistol grip stock.

 

[SKFOOTER]

I want a conventional stock. And the Mossberg 935's are 12 gauges. And they are too dang heavy.

 

[TheLBLman]

I want a conventional stock.

I felt the same way, until I picked up that little 20 ga Weatherby.

I continue to prefer a conventional stock for wing-shooting and general shotgunning. But on a turkey gun, it's much easier to hold the gun steady for long periods with these "non-conventional" stocks, such as when you need to have your gun shouldered for sometimes several minutes patiently waiting and unable to move without being seen.

And,yes, with the right loads, today's 20 gauges greatly exceed the capabilities of yesterday's 12 gauges when the standard turkey load used lead pellets. It's so nice to be running & gunning with something weighing little more than a hiking stick. Even the extra shells you carry in your pocket weigh less and take up less space.

Already checked. Both stores are out of them and no new shipments until the end of the year.

This 20ga Winchester SX3 is a nice looking gun, but to me, going with it kinda totally defeats the main reasons for going to a 20 ga. It's a very heavy 20 ga, not much lighter than the 12.

yeah was my point as well but they are sweet guns.

I finally found one. Now I need to decide which optic to mount on the cantilever.
