There is something refreshing about a turkey gun that keeps things simple. The Charles Daly 101 in 28 gauge is a break-open single shot with a 20 inch barrel and a 3 inch chamber, and at roughly 5 pounds with an overall length under 38 inches, it is the kind of gun you forget you are carrying until a gobbler starts working your way. With today's TSS turkey loads, the 28 gauge has gone from an oddball to a legitimate spring option, and this little gun is built to take advantage of that. The included XX-Full choke threads into the proven Beretta/Benelli Mobil pattern, so tightening up patterns or swapping chokes down the road is easy.
The fixed synthetic stock wears Mossy Oak Bottomland, a pattern that has been fooling sharp-eyed toms in hardwood bottoms and timber edges for decades, while the metalwork gets an OD Green Cerakote finish that shrugs off rain and rough spring weather. Up top, a Picatinny rail comes standard on the receiver, which makes mounting a red dot painless. Pair that with the fiber optic front sight and you have solid aiming options whether you run glass or keep it bare. Sling studs are already in place too, so adding a sling for those long walks between setups takes about a minute.
Turkey hunting is a one shot game most days, and a break-open action gives you dead-simple operation with almost nothing to go wrong. The extractor lifts spent hulls for quick reloads, the manual safety is easy to check by feel, and the steel barrel and receiver keep the whole package sturdy without adding bulk. Recoil out of a 28 gauge is friendly enough that newer hunters and smaller-framed folks can shoot it comfortably, yet with the right load it patterns plenty tight for spring birds. It also pulls double duty on squirrels and other small game once turkey season wraps up. Simple, light, and ready to work, that is the whole pitch here.
With modern TSS loads, absolutely. Tungsten shot carries far more pellets per ounce than lead, so a 28 gauge with the included XX-Full choke can throw dense, effective patterns at realistic turkey distances. Plenty of hunters have moved to sub-gauge turkey guns for exactly this reason, and the lighter carry weight is a bonus on long spring mornings.
Yes, the receiver comes with a Picatinny rail installed from the factory. Most micro red dots with a Picatinny mount will bolt right on with no gunsmithing needed. If you prefer to keep it simple, the fiber optic front sight works fine on its own.
It uses the Beretta/Benelli Mobil choke thread pattern, which is one of the most common systems out there. The gun ships with an XX-Full turkey choke installed, and aftermarket Mobil-pattern 28 gauge chokes are widely available if you want a more open constriction for small game.
It uses an extractor rather than an ejector, so when you break the action open, the spent hull is lifted out of the chamber for you to pluck out by hand. It keeps your empties from flying into the leaves and makes for quiet, controlled reloads in the turkey woods.
