Crazy Price! I don't use a shotgun very often, but I bought a Benelli Nova Shotgun 12-gauge, 3.5-inch shell, 28-inch barrel ~20 years ago. It has been a great gun for bumming around. It will reach right there with length of barrel. It makes a great turkey gun also came with 4 chole tubes. This gun now if you watch sales can get for 450 to 500$. https://images.guns.com/prod/2021/12/16/61bbb07d183444e0755ce72b7776fb47cd81f859fc988.jpg

That price is a no go for me but it would make a nice high country gun in rough country if it’s light weight but probably kills on both ends. LOL

What makes it a turkey gun? The color, sights, or name? That has to be one of the craziest things I have ever seen.

Short barrel, rifle type sights and tight choke with camo finish.

I love singles and that is a nice gun but probably still $600 or more on the actual market.... Id bet if you did the math that gun with a 3 1/2" payload would have as much recoil as a .458 win, maybe more

that is MSRP suggested retail price they set it high so that people can put it onsale
Henry single shots tend to sell around 500 street price
making a long shotgun short is more expensive than you might think
sending off a barrel to have it cut and threaded will run you 250-325 so if you are cutting down a H&R that you had to pay 225 for now you have 500-550 and you haven't added sights yet
there is a cult following of H&R NEF single shot guns

if I was buying a turkey gun today I would be looking at the Mossberg 500 turkey with the 20 inch barrel
and I would use that for shooting most everything street price right about 500 dollars in the camo
I am biased since I put that 20 inch Mossberg vent rib 20 inch barrel on my old 500 and I have shot about everything but a turkey with it.
