“turkey”

Whether you’re a waterfowler, upland hunter or clay target shooter, you’ll find something to be excited about this year. Here are our picks for the best new shotguns for hunters in 2024.

Spandau Shotguns, a division of SDS Imports, has launched its Spandau S2 Shotgun—a 12-gauge made in four different configurations for turkey, waterfowl and even upland hunters.

HEVI-Shot has expanded its shotshell line to include its 12 g/cc tungsten shot in .410-bore. This shot is over 50 percent more dense than traditional steel shot, making the HEVI-XII a logical choice for those who like to hunt waterfowl with the sub-gauge shotguns.

Browning has introduced the long-awaited A5 Hunter 20-gauge. A beautiful wood-stocked classic, this 20-gauge autoloader is field-ready right out of the box.

Stoeger Industries has debuted an all-new member of its popular M3500 line of shotguns, the M3500 Predator/Turkey.

Benelli's Performance Shop is known for turning out firearms that go far beyond even the already lofty level of the company's products. Now, the Performance Shop has turned its considerable resources toward a hunter favorite: the Benelli Ethos.

GForce Arms, Inc. has announced an addition to its Huckleberry Lever Action line of firearms. In addition to its existing GFLVR410 shotgun models, the company now offers a centerfire rifle in the .357 Magnum-chambered GFLVR357 model.

Mossberg International has introduced a group of new Eventide Over/Under shotguns, which should be of interest to hunters of all stripes.

Now ready for the field almost out of the box, Mossberg’s line of optic-ready 500 and 835 Ulti-Mag Turkey pump-action shotguns are being offered with an olive-green Holosun HS407K micro dot sight.
