Camo yes, replacement stocks are not available that I am aware of. Camo raises the price a little. If waterfowl and turkey are on the list I would buy the 3.5" version. 3.5" makes a huge difference in steel capacity so you can actually maintain a decent pattern AND shoot large enough pellets to kill something cleanly. That is having your cake and eating it too. For turkeys another 1/4 oz of shot OR another 150-200 FPS darn sure is not going to hurt anything. The 3.5" gun shoots my light 1 oz reloads, so targets are not a problem. You get the versatility of any 3" autoloader, plus the power of a 10ga if you need/want it.
