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?
How much does this gun cost? The second one down on the list. The one in apg pattern with a pistol grip and shoots up to 3” loads. Thanks.
Woops, here is the link.
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?
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.
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 am looking for a Brand New Shotgun similar to the Winchester 1300 or Mossberg 500 Cruiser or similar i remember i used to see the 1300 Defenders with like a Pistol Grip instead of a Stock and a Pistol Grip on the Slide i thought that was cool i think the grips were called tacstar or something? i heard they don’t make the 1300 Defenders anymore? anyway any similar ones to the 1300 or 500???
just something like the one at this link copy and paste
with a thing to hold the Extra Shells a Brand New Shotgun Preferrably i have a long remington but i want something a little more like the ones i mentioned
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.
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
If I leaned over in a sitting position over a mossberg 500A shotgun (with a pistol grip on it) and a 16 " barell) butt end sitting on the floor between my legs and I put my head on the barrel tip with the tip placed between my eyes and pulled the trigger with a #4 round of bird shot, what would my face look like exactly?? What if I put it in my mouth and pulled the trigger? What type of damage would that do?
If the gun was a mossberg 500A with a pistol grip that was sitting on the floor between my legs, would the gun remain sitting upright without falling over?
Would my face be destroyed if the tip of the barrel was pressed against my forehead using #4 birdshot load? I’m asking this because the police say this is what my son did, but when I found him, his entire face was intact from his mid forehead down with NO blood anywhere on his face, nothing. The back of his head was gone however and the gun was standing on the pistol end upright not touching ANYTHING as if it was suspended in air with the pistol grip end sitting on the floor… that’s why I am asking. I think the police falsified the report and the Medical examiner office was shut down 6 weeks later due to their not doing their job. It was outsourced to a private hospital. So I am thinking they just didn’t want to deal with this and faked the entire report. I think his wife and boyfriend murdered him.
I think it’s funny that I have two college degrees in biology and zoology and am a gun owner, but I found my son dead with a shotgun wound to the head this summer and I am trying to figure out how it happened exactly. I am by no means suicidal and it wasn’t my gun it was his WIFE’S GUN. She bought it for him (10 yr felony there: straw purchase). So please don’t assume, you know, the first three letters of assume? I’ll never ever be the same after seeing my son lying there with his brains blown all over and I am still trying to understand how he could have done that. I never saw any hole in his face or powder burns, NOTHING. How could that happen? The police said he put the gun between his eyes and pulled the trigger but there was NO HOLE and like I said, everything from his mid forehead down and ears forward was NORMAL.
How long would it take post mortem for stippling and possibly burns to show up? I’d think burns would show up right away but stippling maybe an hour or? I’ve been trying to figure it out forensically but that’s not my forte. The police report sounded like a textbook and they said there was "tatooing" but I never saw it. I found him probably within 36 minutes of his death, really fresh. The photos I saw taken a few hours later by the medical examiner, he looked completely different, hands curled, position shifted and large brain lobes were deflated somewhat that were lying around him ie. dessication and rigor was early onset. I can’t get the answers to my questions yet but I am working on it via the sherrif dept and the new medical examiners office. He was also drugged on clonopin, not his Rx. His hands were resting palm down on his legs, one on each when I found him, as if someone put them there. really strange. It’s three months out and I still cry in losing my son.
JOSHUA: I DO NOT OWN THIS GUN HIS WIFE BOUGHT IT FOR HIM OK GOT IT? One of the questions I DID have today for the Sherrif in my appeal for their photos of my son’s death is HOW LONG WAS THE GUN FROM TIP TO GRIP because I am eventually turning his wife in for a straw purchase to ATF. You want to look it up his name is John Charles Heitz and his date of death was on 7.19.2010 in Kalamazoo county michigan. I am his mother. he was 33. Why do you continue to accuse me of owning an illegal gun? You can’t read or? I already said it was registered to his wife. I think the police report said it was 16 3/4 inches and I know anything under 30" is considered a pistol and needs registration etc. as a handgun.
I did go back to this truck days later and took photos of the splatter too… there was some above but most of it was behind him in his bunk and consistent with center fire shells his brains were mainly to the right of him behind and to the side of remained his head with a large lobe off to his left. he was leaning slightly to the right on his back. When I found him, the gun wasn’t touching anything but the floor and so after I called 911 I went back into the truck and looked again at him to confirm what I saw, gun was exactly perpendicular to the floor touching NOTHING but the floor with a pistol grip end. I think that is nearly impossible with that type of gun and load. I found a shell at the scene after they all left and took my son to the funeral home. They police say they have a shell too… so I am wondering what is up with that as well… I know you have to cock the gun to empty the shell… Police said there one only one empty shell in the gun when they found it…
and by the way, I owned 16 guns when I lived up in Montana back in the 1980s and hunted on a regular basis AND I am a female AND NOT a christian republican extremist/conservative militia freak of nature. I just want to know how my son died and if the gun was illegal his crazy wife is at fault as it was HERS not MINE. All I need now is the police photos and if I see a hole in his forehead and after forensics deals with it then I can rest in peace knowing that my son wanted so badly to get away from his fat disgustingly obsessive complusive wife that he killed himself to get free of her. She told me that day she told my son the day he died she would give him a divorce. Well he might not have wanted to wait that long. Too bad she was such a dominating obsessive compulsive freak. Sorry about the new boyfriend she found less than a month after she moved to california. He doesn’t know she’s going to get him too… She’s a man eater.
i just bought a pistol grip forend for my mossberg 500 cruiser, looks great, feels great, but its a littke wobbly.. i was wondering if shooting the gun with the pistol grip forend can harm the gun after a period of time. since the grip is only attatched to the feed tube (magazine or whatever) alot of the reciol force is being put on the mag tube when i shoot it. and i was wondering if you think it will ever harm the gun. thanks!

Im not asking why a shotgun, but why a PUMP shotgun. I am having a hard time deciding what to use for home defense. I already have a Saiga 12 coming. What are the Pro’s and cons of a Saiga 12 w/ intrafuse t6 stock vs a Mossberg 500 w/ pistol grip & buttstock
I live in Cook County Illinois and was wondering if it was legal to add a pistol grip to my shotgun and take off the original stock? This gun is for home protection only. Thanks, Mike~!
