Ithaca 100 SxS. Those side by side barrels look like eyes to a turkey and they fall into a hypnotic state.
  To the original poster: Just turn your Over and under sideways to get the same effect.  :tup:

I'll be using a 16ga sxs hammer gun this year.  Got a tom with a 1905 Lefever 12ga sxs last year.  Double guns are great for turkeys, since you rarely shoot more than once, and you have a choice of which barrel/choke to use.

I change up from my 12 Tominator Muzzle Loader, Nova and Stevens Gold Wing 20 gauge O/U. The O/U works awesome I use Heavy Shot Blend Turkey loads in it and Full and Extra full chokes. Have not had an issue with Knocking down a Turkey with it. Point of aim with either barrel I just put it on the head and let go. Bird in the dirt every time so far.
Smoke em when ya see em!
