The Mossberg 50107 500 Turkey delivers specialized turkey hunting performance in the versatile 410 gauge platform. This purpose-built shotgun combines Mossberg's proven pump-action reliability with camouflage patterns and barrel configurations optimized for close-range turkey encounters.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard field shotguns, this turkey-specific variant features a 24-inch ventilated rib barrel that balances maneuverability in dense cover with the velocity needed for effective 410 gauge performance. The Mossy Oak Greenleaf camouflage completely covers both the synthetic stock and barrel, providing superior concealment compared to partially camouflaged alternatives. The 3-inch chamber capability allows hunters to utilize high-velocity turkey loads that deliver 25% more pellets than standard 2.75-inch shells.
Key Features
- 24-inch ventilated rib barrel optimized for turkey load patterns
- Complete Mossy Oak Greenleaf camouflage coverage on stock and barrel
- 3-inch chamber accepts both 2.75" and 3" 410 gauge shells
- 5+1 round capacity with dual extractors for reliable ejection
- Ambidextrous top-mounted safety accessible in shooting position
- Synthetic stock resists weather damage and maintains zero
- Standard receiver accepts Weaver-style scope bases
Field performance centers on the 410 gauge's reduced recoil and precise shot placement capabilities. The ventilated rib barrel dissipates heat during rapid follow-up shots while providing an elevated sight plane for faster target acquisition. Turkey hunters benefit from the reduced noise signature compared to larger gauges, minimizing spooking of nearby birds. The synthetic stock maintains consistent cheek weld in varying weather conditions.
