Saving a Favorite American Game Bird:
Honoring 40 Years of Wild Turkey Conservation
The comeback of the wild turkey population is considered one of America’s greatest conservation success stories. Though wild turkey numbers dropped as low as 30,000 birds, today more than 7 million wild turkeys flourish throughout North America. At the forefront of the dramatic resurgence of this treasured American game bird is the National Wild Turkey Federation and their ardent supporters and volunteers. Since 1973, the NWTF has been dedicated to the conservation and improvement of habitat critical to sustaining healthy populations of wild turkeys and other upland game. Through their partnerships with state and federal agencies, and the support of their dedicated members, the NWTF has conserved nearly 17 million acres of habitat and wild turkeys now are abundant throughout North America.
Now, the National Wild Turkey Federation and America Remembers have teamed to issue an exclusive Tribute honoring America’s magnificent wild turkey and National Wild Turkey Federation’s 40 years of leadership in the conservation of this magnificent game bird. For this unique limited edition, we selected the Weatherby SA-08 Deluxe 12-Gauge shotgun, a classic American autoloader and favorite for sportsmen.
Working closely with the National Wild Turkey Federation, artists commissioned by America Remembers have created a museum-quality masterpiece. Craftsmen polish and decorate each shotgun with artwork in lustrous 24-karat gold with a striking nickel background to highlight the artwork. The blackened patinaed accents highlight the remarkable details in the gold artwork honoring the majestic wild turkey and celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the National Wild Turkey Federation.
The left side of the receiver prominently features a trophy tom proudly displaying his plumage to a nearby female. Brilliant, feathered filigree frames the pair of wild turkeys and the artwork is featured in brilliant 24-karat gold. Elegant scrollwork in the tradition of the finest presentation grade firearms adds a finishing touch to the design.
On the right side of the receiver, four wild turkeys forage for food in their natural habitat. Feather filigree surrounds the magnificent wild turkeys in the tradition of the finest presentation firearms. The handsome game birds are exquisitely detailed in 24-karat gold against a nickel background. Also featured is the individual edition number of each Tribute, from 001-300. As a final touch, the official 40th Anniversary logo for the National Wild Turkey Federation is featured in lustrous 24-karat gold.
