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 just got the Remington 887 combo and was wondering if anyone has seen an aftermarket picatinny rail for a scope mount. it has three screws on the top so it is tapped for a scope mount. The tactical version of this gun comes with one so there must be something, however i have not seen anything on Remington’s web site or anywhere else for that matter. i bought a weaver rail for shotguns but it didn’t fit maybe a different style or something if anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated

Here is the situation. I have a Benelli Nova pump 28" barrel that I use and quite enjoy for dove and other bird hunting. I was told I could get a rifled barrel for it for deer hunting. As it turns out you can but they are SUPER hard to find and SUPER expensive. I believe Ithaca makes a 24" rifled barrel but I have heard of issues with it on the Nova.

So my question is what would be the best set up to hunt deer with what I got. Slugs, choke, sites, I wouldn’t think you would use a scope with a smooth bore slug but again I am not an expert by any means so if I am wrong, please advise. This will be my first deer hunt with this gun. Advice, technique, pointers, anything would be helpful. THANKS SO MUCH!

I cannot decide which to buy i originally had my heart set on the T3 but i thought about it a little bit and i am so pleased with the quality of my Remington 870 shotgun that i figured why not get another remington. I only have one thing i don’t like on either gun. With the remington the trigger pull is almost impossible to change where as the Tikka you have one screw and your done. But on the tikka i dont like the bolt handle being drilled out and all. i think it looks like its not quit finished where as with the Remington it has a nice textured bolt handle. i also cannot decide on what scope to get for either rifle. A Nikon Buckmaster 4.5-14x-40mm or the Bushnell Elite 3200 4-12x-40mm or the Bushnell Elite 3200 5-15x-40mm. I have been using Nikon products for many years and they have outstanding quality where as Bushnell has just in the near past stepped up on their quality. the scopes are all in the 0-0 range. I LOVE Bushnell’s Multi-X reticle but the Nikon Nikoplex reticle falls a litte short for me. Thank You!!!

i was thinking about picking up a benelli r1 pretty soon and was wondering if anyone actually shot one? hows the recoil compared to lever type rifle and bolt action ones? i heard it tremendously reduces recoil is this true? whats your opinions on the cheek pad(comb inserts), you guys prefer the high one, medium, or none at all? do you guys recammend the comb inserts with scope or without as i like to shoot with and without sometimes depending on what type of game and mood i am in. btw i live in california not that it really matters. thanks guys

Hello, Is a 2-7X32 Nikon Prostaff a good scope for deer hunting with a 12gauge Mossberg 500 with a fully rifled slug barrel? Will this scope hold up to the recoil? Is it too much power for slug hunting? Is there any better scopes for around 0?

I know I don’t need a scope for deer hunting, but I want and prefer using a scope!

Thanks

For next deer season. Will the scope stay zeroed in with the recoil of 3 inch slugs? I’ve never had a problem with scopes on my rifles (.30-06, .308) going out of whack because of recoil, but the recoil on my shotgun makes the rifle recoil seem like a love tap.
I can go down to 2 3/4 I guess.

Shotguns are all we can use in Iowa; Rifles I use in WI.

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
