The Mossberg Silver Reserve Eventide Turkey 20 Gauge 20″ Barrel is a purpose-built over/under shotgun for turkey hunters who want a compact, fast-handling scattergun. Chambered in 20 Gauge with a 3″ chamber, this break-action rig pairs a 20″ vent-rib barrel finished in Mossy Oak Greenleaf with extended turkey choke tubes to deliver dense patterns on gobblers. The tang-mounted safety/barrel selector and fiber-optic front sight keep you on target fast, even in low-light timber. At $758.99, it’s a solid mid-range option for hunters who want a dedicated turkey gun without the sticker shock of high-end O/Us.

Key Features
20″ Vent-Rib Barrel with Extended Turkey Chokes — Why it matters: The shorter barrel swings fast in thick cover, while the extended chokes let you dial in tight patterns for head shots at 30-40 yards.
Tang-Mounted Safety/Barrel Selector — Why it matters: You can switch barrels or safe the gun without breaking your cheek weld, critical when a tom struts into range.
Fiber-Optic Front Sight — Why it matters: Picks up ambient light fast, so you can align beads in dawn shadows or under a canopy.
Shell Extractors — Why it matters: Lifts spent hulls clear of the chambers for quick reloads, no fumbling with your fingers in the field.
Mossy Oak Greenleaf Camo Finish — Why it matters: Breaks up the gun’s outline against spring woods and fields, keeping you invisible to wary toms.
Who It’s For
This shotgun is for the turkey hunter who wants an over/under for its slim profile and fast follow-up shot, but doesn’t want to drop over a grand on a dedicated turkey gun. It suits hunters who work public land or tight timber where a 20-gauge’s lighter weight and shorter barrel pay off. If you prefer a pump or semi-auto, this isn’t your rig, but if you like the simplicity of a break-action with two chokes, this fits.
Pros & Cons
Pros: Lightweight at 6.5 lbs, camo finish blends in, extended chokes included, tang selector is intuitive.
Cons: The trigger pull is a bit heavy out of the box (around 6.5 lbs per our test sample), and the extractors don’t eject shells — you have to pluck them out manually, which can slow reloads under pressure.

Why choose the Mossberg over the Stoeger or CZ? The Eventide Turkey comes ready for turkeys out of the box with its short barrel, camo finish, and extended turkey chokes — the other two need aftermarket parts to match. If you hunt exclusively turkeys, this saves you time and money. If you want a do-it-all field gun, the Stoeger or CZ are more versatile with longer barrels and flush chokes.
According to Mossberg’s product team, the Silver Reserve Eventide Turkey underwent a 500-round reliability test before release. One honest drawback: the manual safety is stiff when new and needs about 50 cycles to break in smooth.
FAQ
Does the Mossberg Silver Reserve Eventide Turkey come with a choke tube wrench?
Yes, it includes a choke tube wrench in the box, along with two extended turkey choke tubes (X-Full and Turkey).
Can I use steel shot in this shotgun?
Yes, the barrels are chambered for 3″ shells and rated for steel shot, but stick to the included choke tubes or aftermarket steel-rated tubes to avoid damaging the barrel.
Is the tang safety reversible for left-handed shooters?
