OK, Here’s the deal. BIG-5 just sent out their newest flier, and it’s got 2 Mossberg 12 gauge shotguns to choose from. I went in today and held/looked at both. One is the persuader/cruiser with the(I believe) 20 inch barrel, pretty sure it holds 7+1. I think it handles 2-3/4 or 3" shells. The other is within the 500 lineup, not sure the exact model. It has a combo of two barrels, one 18.5", and one 28". I believe it also handles 2-3/4 or 3" shells, and holds 5+1. Both are on sale for 9.99! That’s a pretty good price, if you ask me. Which would you choose, and why? What are the pros/cons of the barrel lengths, and is it worth the slightly longer barrel for the extra 2 shells? Has anybody had any experience with either or both of these, and if so what did you like and dislike about it/them? I’ve heard pretty good things about Mossberg, what do you think? And also, what are the pros/cons of the different shells and loads for a 12 gauge? I’ve never owned a shotgun, just rifles and handguns, so I don’t know much about the different loads. Thanks for any info or help!
Lance T, or any others with similar usage question. I have never owned a shotgun, so I want one that will be fun, reliable, will work for home defense, as well as many other purposes, and something to sort of get used to shotguns on. I mean before I lay down the big bucks for something "nicer".
Metropol, I’m very aware that the 500 is a great gun. What I mean is before I lay down 0 for the mossberg 930 spx, which I am considering. Thanks to all, for the advice and opinions. I still have the rest of today to make my decision.

got a mossberg 500 cruiser (pistol grip only). cool for the house but significantly less cool for my shoulder at the range. I need a stock, folding or otherwise, and/or a vertical foregrip. I also need to not go to jail for having illegal firearems. don’t know about all that class III/AOW business

I’m going to buy a shotgun soon and i was wondering how much the Mossberg 590a1 spx 12 gauge 9 shot with the 20” heavy walled barrel, metal trigger guard & safety button, black synthetic stock, picatinny rail, and the lpa ghost ring sights cost.

The charge is felony assault causing major bodily harm.
I have put down the destruction of my hat, sweatshirt I had to replace that were soaked in blood. My medical bills, and I have since purchased a mossberg home defense 12 gauge shotgun due to the fact the assailant knows where I live and has been contacting all my friends trying to sway their oppinions. Can I justify the shotgun as restitution?

I’m somewhat confused about this. I know some do shoot more than one BB but I didn’t know about the mossberg 500 or how to load it.

I hate the damn thing! I use shotguns for skeet shooting ok. Every time I go to the gun range to skeet shoot The damn thing, without a doubt always screws up on me and the fired shell does not eject! Would it be worth it to trade it in to a store like gander mountain or should i just keep it?

This past hunting season i was going to use my grandpa’s Mossberg 20 gauge pump shotgun but i didn’t due to that i bruised my shoulder firing a similar shotgun. Anyway when my dad and i went to a Gander Mountain to buy rounds for the shotgun i thought we could use buck shot but the guy there said that in Minnesota and in several other states Buck Shot is illegal. My question is, why is it illegal? Is it because on how much damage it can do to someone?

I have a Mossberg 500 Persuader (originally pistol grip configuration) 8 shot, with an oem heat shield. I’ve recently bought a mossberg ghost ring kit which I intend to install on the shotgun. My question is: if I install the ghost ring front sight, will this impair me from being able to remove the heat shield for cleaning/etc.
Thanks!

I’m in th market for this shotgun, but I do not like the big ass "ghost ring" sights it comes with. To me sights on a shot gun are just useless, especially since I’m not gonna be shooting at anything from more than 10 to 12 yards out as this will be primarily a home defense weapon. The beaded sight my el cheapo Mossberg Maverick 88 seems sufficient enough!

i plan on getting a cheap shotgun called the Mossberg Maverick series. Im getting the 88 Field model with the 28" vented rib barrel. Im just wondering how good of a gun it is, is it reliable, etc.

I recently got a Mossberg 500A 12guage shotgun, and plan on using it for home/self defense. I bought a stock already, and plan on buying a ghost ring sight. When I took it to the range, I was unhappy with the spread I was getting in my pellets. What is the best choke for this purpose for a shotgun, what type of ammunition do you suggest, and how do you go about changing the choke on this style of shotgun?
I want to add that I don’t see any threads on the inside of my barrel, like a nut. Will the choke tubes still screw in without one, or do I need to but a whole new barrel? If so, do you hav suggestions on which kind and where to buy them?

Hello there.
I’m looking for a good barrel mounted system for my Mossberg 500 shotgun. I’m new to the "tactical mounting" thing, so i was wondering what were some good barrel mounts to hold a flashlight. Like if there are any kits with the mount (rather it’s picatinny or not) and a flashlight, or a barrel mounted flashlight holder that can hold a variety of different flashlights. Thank you very much in advance 
@ Max
I’m from the states, i can buy one. I just don’t know where or what kind i should get.

Thinking about a H&R single shot but if I can get a good pump for like 50 more $ then I’ll do it. Looking for mainly customization. I know that a Mossberg 500 is very customizable but its a little bit to pricey.

I have a mossberg 500 with a barrel stamped modified choke, what does that mean? you cant screw in any chokes and I see no riffling in it. I got it at big 5 and it came with 2 barrels. can I shoot steel and lead shells?
