I'm making ready with the Mossberg 500 combo - got both sabots and standard slugs, will decide which barrel to use dependent upon what stand I hunt. Also taking my muzzy. Also gonna bring my Ruger GP100 pistol (might call that my concealed carry lmao )

Don't forget your Rambo knife! Lol, just kidding.

I'm determined to kill something with this 870. We have a curse and I will break that this year. New scope will get dialed in thanksgiving morning. If something happens with either of us, one of us will end up with concrete boots! The TC will be on standby as always.

45/70, Rem 1100 and an Accura. I've got them all dusted off. I think Mason will be using the 45/70 on Saturday, but rarely does the starting pitcher finish the game.

Mossberg 500 and TC Omega will make the trip again this year. Everything is dusted off and dialed in. As long as I do my part we should be good to go.

I'll be toting my Marlin 1895 xlr 45/70. I was hoping to try it out this year but since my son filled the freezer already I don't foresee it going "bang".

Remington 1187 in 20 gauge with a brand new (still needs mounted and sighted in) Vortex Diamondback 3×9 scope. Built this gun for my wife, but I love carrying it too. I'll probably bring the CVA Optima Elite with me too for a long range option if needed...

There is something special about taking game with a old "family" gun.
Second would have to be using a new weapon type on the same old game...

Of course, third would have to be a combination AK-57 uzzie radar lasar triple barrel double scoped heat-seakin shotgun.

I picked up a Henry 44mag. It sure is pretty. I'd like to tote it around. Something tells me the Savage 220 will see most of the time in stand. It is TOO fun and TOO deadly. If I am beating brush, I'll likely take the trusty ol' 870 but possibly the Henry. I bought it to use. Neither has a scope so it wouldn't make a big difference I suppose.
