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.
I use a mossberg 500 shotgun with a 28 inch vent rib barrel with a modified choke. i use federal field and target 2 3/4 inch #6 steel shot. is this a good setup for prairie chicken shooting and crow, and how big will my pellet spread be at about 30 yards?
i also have a box of winchester super double X 3" magnum copperplated lead #4 shot. would this be worth the hefty recoil?
i’m turnin 18 in a couple weeks and was going to purchase a mossberg 500 shotgun, but heard that you must be 21 to buy a pistol grip installed one. so i was just wondering which mossberg 500 model doesn’t have a pistol grip installed
hi, im looking into buying a Mossberg 500 shotgun sometime soon, and i need some help…. i was thinking about getting the 12 ga. model, however, i started to think more and more about getting the 20 ga. when this past weekend i went out shooting skeet and shot about 75-100 shells through a 20. and my should was somewhat sore, and i thought if i get a 12 it would be too much recoil. now i don’t know which gauge to buy. i would mostly be shooting skeet, hunting small game/ possibly birds, and probably deer eventually. which gauge should i get, 12 or 20 and why??? please help
by the way… i am 15 years old and about 120 lbs. im not sure of my height, probably around 5′… 5-6" tall.
thank you all for your answers. i was just wondering because i don’t know how much a recoil pad would work, but i am now pretty sure i will get the 12. also when i go hunting squirrel and such i have a single shot 20 ga if carrying around a 12 gets to be too much work. thanks again.
I currently have a Mossberg 500 shotgun with two barrels. A 28" field barrel and a 24" slug barrel. It is basically new and has about 120 field loads through the gun. I want to pick up a synthetic Remington 870 field shotgun 12 gauge for a replacement. I realize I will probably loose a few bucks but I really would like to try the 870. Are the new 870′s still good quality? I heard they also absorb more recoil due to their receiver being made of steel. Thanks for the help. How much should I ask for my mossy do you think? Thanks.
I recently purchased a mossberg 500 shotgun and went to load it for the first time. The round tube will only accept qty 2 of 2-3/4" shells. Im no dummy so I hope its not me… on shell goes in fine, second goes in fine, and 3rd simply stops after I depressing in the other two shells maybe 1/2". Anyone have any quick fixes?
Its something to do with the shell tube… even knowing it cant be anything else… I still disassembled it down to nothing and reassembled it, and action works fine, it chambers and ejects the two shells I could load just fine too…
I’m not a collector but have a philosophy that a good handgun and a shotgun in the house are a pretty good start to home protection.
That said, I have a CZ 75 as my night stand protection and CURRENTLY a mossberg 500 shotgun. The Mossberg is fine but I’m a gun snob and there’s an ad for decent deal on the Benelli Nova.
Two questions.
Would you agree that if you just owned a couple of guns for home protection that a solid 9mm and a shotgun would be wise?
I was thinking of selling the mossberg for 0 and spending another 0 for the Benelli. Just because it seems like a cooler gun. Worth it?
Hello, I have a mossberg 500 shotgun with a slug barrel. I’m going to use if for deer hunting. What are some useful or nice accessories should I purchase for this gun?
Also how does a sling fit on this gun? Were does it hook up and what kind of sling should I get? What other accessories are available?
Hi, I bought a new mossberg 500 shotgun from big 5, its the synthetic combo 500 pump action. I see that the barell does not have threads at the muzzle for interchangeable chokes, but the barell is stamped modified barell, what does this mean? Also, can I fire the cheap federal 100pack shells?
I have a mossberg 500 shotgun and I want to try firing some slugs in it. Can I fire slugs in this gun or do I need to change the barrel? What are the best slugs to use for hunting deer?
I want a nice short barrel for my Mossberg 500 shotgun, the only 18.5 barrels I can find have no iron sights and my shotgun from the 1970′s so it can’t mount a scope or Eotech sight . Is there any 18-20” barrels with iron sights or provisions for mounting a scope ?
I have a mossberg 500 shotgun. I am a big deer hunter with a little budget. I was wondering if a rifled barrel can shoot rifled slugs? I know most barrels out there cost like 160 bucks and up. I found this barrel at walmart and it comes with a scope http://www.walmart.com/ip/Mossberg-Barrel-Scope-Combo-For-20-guage-500-Shotguns/4956490 Would it be a good barrel to use with any kind of rifled slugs? It looks like I can get a different scope if that one dosen’t fit me.
Thanks

I live in Louisville KY and I want to purchase a Mossberg 500 shotgun + ammo. What is the best place to go to?
Wow Hugh, thanks for your incredibly smart reply. I admire your IQ.
I’m asking for specific names of gun stores in the area, dumbass.
I plan on purchasing a new barrel for my Mossberg 500 shotgun, and the barrel says that it has " Vent Ribbing". Can someone easily explain what this means ?
I want to own a Mossberg 500 Shotgun for self-defence, i know that i have to be 18 and with no criminal history. But do i need a permit or something, so it could legaly be in my home?
I bought a mossberg 500 shotgun with a 20inch barrel which I really enjoy. I get outshot by a friend at varmits that our 15-20 yards out of my range. I miss and he kills it. Its not my aim btw. Can I put another choke on it or do I have to put a longer barrel? thx
It says its a "cylinder bore" choke. This is the gun.
