  1. I’ve got a M2 20ga that I use mostly for turkey hunting back up to my 12ga and a little crow hunting. I bought her new 3/09 and would say she’s has probably at least 500 (not much I know) rounds through her. I had it out the other day crow hunting and noticed a minor issue I’ve experienced a few times while turkey hunting in the past is now getting to be a pain in the rear all the time.

     

    Trying to loading either 2¾” or 3” shells intro the mag tube is getting tough to do. I’ve had her apart and cleaned the spring, black aluminium follower/spring cap, inside of the mag tube and even lubed the follower/cap with a little Rem Oil but I’m still having the same issues. It’s really tough to feed shells.

     

    Does anyone have any suggestions or heard of this issue with other 20ga M2’s? Thanks for any help on this :D

    :D

  2. First of all....**BOTH CHOKES SOLD**

     

     

     

    CH/QBPS....It's been a while since I was on here. Hope all is well and that you're ready for thumping turkeys : ) Just got in another 100pk of targets from QB yesterday and getting ready to pattern four guns this weekend.

     

    I ended up trading in my SBE II : ( Both my turkey guns (other than the smoke pole) were autos and I just love my M2 20ga too much to get rid of it. Seeing the choke tubes didn't do anything to the trade in value, I keep them.

     

    I ended up getting two these two new thumpers for my son and I with plenty left over to set up & trick them out. Nothing againt the tubes or Benelli! As I said, I still have & love every much....my M2 & the R1 ; )

  3. I've got two SBE II turkey chokes for sale. Rhino .660 and a Jelly Head .660. Jelly Head was a test choke and Rhino I used for 1 season. $70 shipped for the Rhino and $35 shipped for the Jelly Head. Buy both and I'll sell them for $90 but you pay shipping.

  4. You just paid entirely to much for a production call. If you were looking into spending that much money you should have went with a good custom call made from someone who will and can make a call to sound the way you want.

     

    Production calls all basically sound the same way with the same tone qualitys. CnC production calls are a thing of the past hand turned calls are what you should have went for. That way you would have had something in the woods that the guy across the road is not going to have.

     

    EDIT: I see someone through a link out check Andy Kaisers calls out http://kaiserkalls.com/ or do a search for him on google you will see what is said by people who actually use them

     

    Some get it and then there those that don't FLH :D I'd never buy another mass produced call again period. I own three of Andy's calls and several other custom calls from other call makers. Andy's calls for the last 5 years are always in my vest ;)

  5. I've got a Rhino 20GA .575 turkey tube for a Benelli mobil system for sale. Bought a M2 and it doesn't fit, I need a crio threaded tube. Used for patterning last year only and will sell it for $65 plus shipping. I need to cover the cost of a Pure Gold tube

     

    PM or email me at [email protected]

  6. Thanks Chad ;) That gives me a good base price to go off of. I guess maybe I'll see what my buddy can get one from Benelli will cost and compare.

     

    It's getting close to that time! A friend of mine asked me the other day while ice skating with my son if I was starting to get the fever. As I skated pass him I let out an owl hoot for a reply :D

  7. I had a coyote attack my hen decoy this year! She'll never do that again ;) I also watch a hawk attack a hen as she pitched from roost this year. That hunt was awesome and I ended up taken one real nice spurred gobbler thanks to that hawk.

    Here's how my "coyote load" preformed this year!

  8. Awesome season and nice birds!

     

    I am still feeling guilty when I sleep until 6:00 AM, I can't mentaly let the season go.

     

    I'll post some pics later.

     

    I killed 3 birds between NY and PA. One of the birds was 23lbs! 9 1/2" beard, 1 1/8 spurs!

     

    Mywife told me if I had a turkey mounted she would leave, I hope the taxedermist hurries up with it :D

     

     

     

    Thanks! I wish my wife would give that kind of ultimatum! I’d have them all mounted :D I couldn’t pass up on the 1 9/16 spur gobbler and then the hen. The best spurred gobbler I've ever taken plus my first bearded hen. She actually was pretty pissed about me getting the hen mounted as well. Lucky for me, my taxidermist is a great friend of mine and it will only cost me $700 for the two birds and the base display.

     

    I’m going to have the gobbler standing relax with the hen feeding in front of him. I thought it would really show off her beard (which was 7 ¾” long) and the gobbler hooked sword will be seen good in the standing position as well.

  9. I was only there for the first three days and the high winds, rain and snow really messed me up :mad: Did get a shot off opening morning but missed. Hard to shoot when you're soaking wet, freezing and shaking like crazy.

     

    I do know this, I'm buying better rain gear next year and it will be the first thing packed in my truck when I'm getting ready for another hunting trip.

  10. I believe I'll be passing on the EZ Pull Trigger Assist for turkey hunting. It does work really nice and I would recommend it ;) I just keep wondering about that award sitting positions turkey hunting sometime throw at me and using it properly.

     

    With my big fingers, I'm working the trigger with just the tip of my finger and that isn't something I care to try and deal with when I've got a nice gobbler working his way into my calling from my left side.

     

    Overall I give two thumbs up :D
