Description
The Mossberg Silver Reserve Eventide Turkey is an over/under shotgun built specifically for turkey hunting, where a short, maneuverable platform matters more than a long-range rifle setup. The 20-inch barrel keeps the gun compact enough to swing through tight timber without sacrificing the handling balance that a break-action design depends on — in an over/under, barrel length has a direct relationship to swing weight and pointability at close-to-mid ranges, which is exactly where turkey work happens.
The Mossy Oak Greenleaf finish covers the synthetic stock and, per Mossberg’s own configuration, is matched to a full camouflage treatment suited to the green and shadow tones of spring turkey season. Synthetic furniture is a practical choice here: it shrugs off moisture, temperature swings, and rough ground contact without warping or finish checking the way wood can.
Fiber optic sights give the shooter a bright, fast-acquiring aiming point in the low-contrast conditions common at dawn and dusk — exactly the windows when turkeys are moving. Unlike bead-only arrangements, fiber optics give you a defined focal point that works even when ambient light is poor. The tang-mounted safety also acts as a barrel selector, a standard feature on this platform that lets you choose which tube fires first without breaking your grip or shifting your hand position.
The gun holds two rounds, which is the mechanical limit of the over/under format. For turkey hunting that is rarely a constraint, and the format itself offers a reliable, straightforward manual of arms with no cycling mechanism to introduce variability between shells of different pressure levels.
