MOSSBERG 590A1 TACTICAL SHOTGUNS
Guns & Ammo ^ | Dec. 19, 2009 | Press Release

Posted on 12/28/2008 3:19:57 PM PST by smokingfrog

Tactical Shotguns now available to general public.

North Haven, CT (January 2009)—From U.S. Service men and women around the world to law enforcement agencies across the country, Mossberg shotguns have experienced nearly four decades of combat and combat readiness in the hands of armed forces world-wide. Enjoying a long-standing relationship with the U.S. armed forces, Mossberg is the manufacturer of the only 12 gauge pump action shotgun ever to pass the stringent U.S. Military Mil-Spec 3443 standard.

Now, for 2009 Mossberg will make available select 590A1 models to the general public. All models will come standard with heavy-walled barrels, metal trigger guards and safety buttons in a durable Parkerized finish. A full range of sighting options will be available in front bead, ghost ring rear or 3-dot configurations. Several variations of stocks will also be available with wood, synthetic, speed feed and adjustable aluminum. All 590A1 models come drilled and tapped from the factory making it easy to mount a Picatinny rail, scope base or other optic options. Other accessories available for the 590A1 are heat shields, Picatinny rails as well as orange buttstocks and forearms for training purposes.

The Mossberg shotgun has a proven place not only in the field but also for home/personal defense.

For some reason I prefer a shotgun without a pistol grip.

I put two rds of 3” 00 buck in a pistol griped 870 once.

AND braced for it.

I was a fool to shoot two rds.

I like the looks of a classic double barrel but their is nothing inherently wrong with the pistol grip. Just make sure there is a stock too.

I taught skeet for several years. I once tried a SPAS and was surprised how well it handled on the skeet range.

I have arthritis, pretty bad in my hands and shoulders. I have noticed that my Winchester Defender is far easier to handle now that I replaced the standard stock with one which makes it look a bit like an assault rifle. That pistol grip really does help.
