i'm gonna be folding em up in the air man. yeah, it's pretty difficult to find an over/under in 3.5". actually, browning and beretta were the only companies i saw out there that were making them. i want to shoot some turkey as well with this thing. actually, i've got several other shotguns and bought this one in hopes of replacing them all. 3.5" isn't really needed. you can certainly go heavier load with 3" and do just fine, but most of your big time waterfowlers and turkey hunters shoot 3.5" mainly because of the increased amount of lead that it will throw out there. 95% of the time i'll probably stick to 3" but i didn't want to buy a new shotgun and then a couple years later envy everyone else and have to get another. i already have 3 shotguns so a fifth would be ridiculous. ha!!!
