which model of the Mossberg 500 12 gauge shotgun should i get???? i am going to be using it for home defense and hunting(squirrel, coyotes, deer, birds, etc, probably nothing bigger than a deer). also i would like a nice flashlight and/or scope, but idk which model to buy, i was thinking about the tactical, or persuader/cruiser. I don’t want a wood stock or anything, all synthetic.
if you think i should get the wood, why? and if i do could i put accessories on it?
which MODEL should i get???????
could i add a pistol grip to the model A?
does the model a have any other names?

I am looking for a shotgun I can use to shoot clay pigeons. I have an 18 inch 20 gauge Mossberg. I haven’t used that for clay pigeons yet. I have shot a 28 inch barrel shotgun and hit most of the pigeons. My arms got really tired after a little bit. Anyways.. the 18 inch won’t be as accurate right? So what’s a good one?

What would they be?
I would take a pump action,probably mossberg or benelli
Ar-15
kimber 1911
The 1911 has stopping power for conceal carry or home defense
The ar-15 is a fun gun
Mossberg 500 is a hunting gun

Hi, i went to big 5 here in las vegas, and they are selling a mossberg 12 gauge 8 shot shotgun for 9.00 but the guy said he would sell it to me for 0 if I decide by tomorrow? How come they would go lower? Could it have a problem? Also, is that a good deal for that shotgun? It looks great to me, its the 590a mossberg
I WANT A HANDGUN OR 12GAUGE FOR SELF DEFENSE

i am looking for a great new or used 20 gauge shotgun that i can purchase under 0. i have researched the mossberg 500 all purpose 20 gauge, but it is 8 new and i don’t think i will have enough to buy that. i will most likely be using it for birds and small game around my house ( i live on 6 acres)
i want one that is pump action too!

I have a Mossberg 500 that holds 6 shells (5 + 1 Chambered). Is that legally acceptable here in the US? I had a friend tell me that I needed to install somebody to limit me to 3 rounds. Is this true? Could the BATF bust down my door and arrest me for having a shotgun, I bought in 1993, that holds 6 rounds?

Should I use a shotgun with a buttstock or pistol grip, because the buttstock shotgun does not look as well designed as the pistol grip ones.
Mossberg 500 persuader for example, or should I use a remington 870?

I just bought this shotgun. Its a Mossberg Maverick 12 Gauge. Anyone know if its a decent gun? Im not hunting or anything.This is just for protection. It was cheap and hell, a shotgun is a shotgun. Im not going to pay 600 for a gun.

I have been told i can’t use steel shot with a mossberg 195D bolt action shotgun because of the choke. What about a non-poly choke or insted of steel bismuth shot? HELP.
didn’t answer my question.

I know pump-action shotguns are legal here, but I remember reading something about American gun laws and pistol grips.

I’m buying a Mossberg 500 pump shotgun. It will have a 20" barrel and the 8 shot tube, can handle 3" shells. It will be purely for home defense. Hopefully it will be used 1) never, 2) by me, 3) last resort by my wife. For use # 3, I want to be sure that a target in the "general direction" of a threat will be hit. #3 is why I’m moving from my favored Colt .45. I don’t give a #$@& about rebuilding the house … if it’s necessary to kill an intruder, carpentry and dry wall are a small price to pay if the gun gives us the winning hand. Any thoughts on a good load? I used to alternate a slug and bird shot in 3" Magnum form in my Remington 870 when in the home defense mode. That was arrived at by my gut feeling … never any experience, fortunately. Others probably have a more scientific viewpoint. Love to hear it.

Thanks,

Rich
Thanks for the answers guys – good info. I appreciate the comment about a "general direction" aim not being a good concept for even a shot gun. One likely shot is from an upstairs landing through an open foyer to an entrance … 20 ft. or so. Sure you have to aim, but the odds of a 2 or 3 inch group sure beats the footprint of a .45 ACP, under stress and low light. I think I’m leaning toward 2 3/4 with buckshot. Thoughts on locking mount systems? There’s another recent thread on the topic, but how about a 12v police cruiser lock (lots for sale on eBay) with a cipher pad and a combo you know by tactile feel? I’m more concerned about child safety than theft – If a guy had the time to crow bar it off the studs, it’s his … I just want family safety.

Rossi shotgun question. should i invest in a recoil pad for my youth size 20 ga. I also have a mossberg 500 12 gauge and the 20 gauge kicks and hurts worse than the 12 gauge should i buy it or not?

OK. i recently asked about hunting black bear, and earlier tonight i bought a mossberg 500 12 gauge pump action shotgun to get my shot better. If i dont get a better shotgun, using the mossberg I now have with a 3" slug shell, would you say i have a decent chance at actually taking down a bear? Please do not answer this unless you have experience hunting bear.

My stepdad recently passed away and kindly left me his gun collection. One of them is a Mossberg 835 hunting shotgun with a non-factory 15" barrel. I have removed the barrel, and the shotgun in it’s current state is in 3 pieces. I know there is a 0 fee and a background check, but I want to know exactly where one would start in the process to acquiring this "short barrel shotgun tax stamp" from the ATF so I can go out and shoot this thing at a range before I leave for Marine Corps boot in September. Some other info that may hinder the process: I am in Orange County, FL, I’m 19 years old, and as stated the barrel has unfortunately *already* been modified (by my stepdad not too long before he passed). Thanks guys

I have been looking into getting a 12 gauge shotgun for home defense. I want to say this was on a mossberg 500 tactcal shotgun i saw. They had it on a 6 shot capacity and a 9 shot capacity. Almost certain it was called a speed feed. In the picture it shows that you can store i beleive it was 4 extra shotgun shells in the handle frame of the shutgun just in front of i guess it would be the stock. Sorry dont know much about shotguns so probably just making these terms up. If anyone understands what i am talking about and can please explain to me how the speed feed works. Is it just a storage area to hold the extra shells? Or is that where it feeds the shells up into the shotgun? I am confused because it says there are 6 and 9 shot capacity. Is that including the extra shells in the speed feed or is it 6 and 9 shot capacity for the stock plus what you have in the speed feed?
use the link.

looks like the best way is to just buy a new 18.5" barrel and do the pistol grip myself. can anyone suggest where the best places might be to purchase this barrel for my mossberg 20 gauge pump model 500c and if i buy one, is it something i can change out myself . thanks again everyone for the input.
