Mossberg 940 Pro Turkey semi-automatic shotgun 12 gauge camouflage hunting gun

Mossberg's line of Jerry Miculek-endorsed 940 Pro semi-automatic shotguns now includes the 940 Pro Turkey. The new gobbler-getter comes cloaked in Mossy Oak Greenleaf camouflage—in both 24"- and 18.5"-barreled options—with a receiver machined for low-profile mounting of a Shield-compatible red-dot.

The gas system is said to run trouble-free for 1,500 rounds between cleanings thanks to internal parts—the gas piston, magazine tube, hammer and sear—being treated with corrosion-resistant nickel boron. Ergonomic enhancements include length-of-pull adjustability, an enlarged and beveled loading port, oversize charging handle and bolt release, and elongated elevator.

Near the muzzle is a Hi-Viz CompSight front fiber-optic unit and barrel threads that accommodate screw-in Accu-Choke-compatible X-Factor chokes. To learn more, please visit mossberg.com.
