Bentonville, AR – Escort’s proven PS line of semi-automatic shotguns are now available in turkey-specific models. The PS Turkey Hunter is available in 12-GA, 20-GA, and .410-Cal and is tailored with the turkey shooter in mind. Common to many Escort semi-automatic shotguns, the PS Turkey Hunter features Hatsan’s FAST Loading System and Smart Valve Piston technologies. The FAST Loading System enables faster and easier loading with one hand and without the need to change shooting position. The loading button acts as both a carrier latch release for loading and the bolt release when the bolt is locked back. This gun’s Smart Valve Piston will cycle 7/8 oz, 2 ¾” all the way up to 3″ full magnum loads, credited to its self-regulating design. This patented design is so reliable that one can mix heavy and light loads in the same magazine without a hiccup.

At its heart, Pheasants Forever has always been about community: a place where all are welcome to celebrate the beauty of the uplands and everything they encompass – habitat, wildlife and hunting. Our Women on the Wing initiative is an essential part of that mission: a common ground for like-minded individuals who are passionate about conservation.
