Pistol grip butt stock

[04_e46]

Thinking about getting a new pistol grip butt stock for my mossberg 500 "security" shotgun...anyone have a recommendation? Was looking between the knoxx/blackhawk or the speedfeed...I just want something with a pistol grip and butt stock together. Thanks Calgunners!

I love my knoxx...I have probably close to 3k shells of all sorts through it with no problems. You'll find a lot of haters here regarding this stock. However, I love mine.

I've used both, and I'm partial to the Blackhawk/Knoxx, but it's purely personal preference.

I've used both as well and chalk up a vote for Speedfeed from me. I never was able to get comfortable with the Knoxx.

My preference is for Speedfeed IV, the internal shell holders in Speedfeed II I've found sometimes drop their shells under recoil. Not a good thing.

I've got a Speedfeed IVs, works great for me. I would certainly recommend it.

The speedfeed stock I'm thinking of was a conventional stock with a speedfeed feature on my 590, not a pistol grip speedfeed. I didn't care for it. The location of the shell "feed" isn't ideal for everyone and probably more so for lefties. A side saddle is probably better located and I found it just a bit better balanced.

About the only thing I miss with the Knoxx or the Choate stock I tried just prior to the Knoxx is easy access to the tang safety which worked just fine with a semi-pistol grip/conventional stock and not so well when you add the pistol gripped stock. It's just a bit too far away to comfortably reach with your thumb and you might resort to toggling it with the weak hand/off hand instead, or sliding your hand down to toggle it and take up a shooting grip. Suddenly the "odd" position of the safety on the Remington starts looking more optimal - it doesn't change much between a conventional vs. pistol grip stock.

The link is to the short stock but you can add a thick pad to it for both recoil management and a longer LOP.

The Knoxx stock is adjustable and recoil absorbing but expensive and the springs add a point of failure that need a bit of maintenance every now and again and you should probably keep spare springs just in case.
