This video will clearly explain why you should go with a 500/590 over an 870
LOL - EVERYTHING has been affected. I went to WalMart the other day and was going to pick up some 12 gauge shells for busting clays. They were out of bird shot - BIRD SHOT! They had deer slugs and turkey loads for 12 gauge. They did have some 20 gauge bird shot, but that was it.I went shooting with my boss and shot some clays!! I fell in love!! Plus I need a break from the 223/556 ammo drama. Shotguns weren't affected!!!
... I need to be educated!!
Remington 870
Mossberg 590A1
Winchester 1300 Defender
A very one sided video obviously pro Mossberg. He doesnt even mention the Steel reciever of the 870 vs Alum on the Mossberg. Nor the dual action bars on the 870 vs single on the Mossberg.
All of my Mossbergs have two action bars. You sure you've handled a 500/590, and aren't talking about a different model?
I have one of these, had a gunsmith shorten the barrel to 18 1/2" and I flat love that thing, action is as smooth as butter.I have an old Western Fields Model 30 12n ga Pump. It's Browning complete with the Browning hump on the receiver.
take it apart and check the O rings they might be swelled or cut, if i was you i would buy a new set of o rings for it first before you buy a new gun. and is it a 3inch magnum gun if it is it might not want to cycle anything but 3inch magnums. and is it a mk2 or what, what exact model is it?Has anyone here heard of a mosberg 5500???? This shotgun looks nice as hell but it just won't cycle
