I've got a couple of Mossberg 500's in 12g and one of them got dropped in the river not too long ago. The magazine tube is full of gunk and before I got back to camp and got it cleaned out, it apparently rusted pretty badly inside. Bad enough that deep cleaning still won't allow the spring and follower to run smoothly.
Since I've got a few of these things, and I sold my HD 1300 a while back for more than it was worth, I'm wanting to build a 590 clone.
I would like a 20" barrel and a 8+1 magazine tube/spring/follower assembly for my Mossberg 500 but haven't really been able to find one. Numrich has one listed, but there is a "old model" and a regular one and I don't know the difference.
Any help here? Suggestions? I've always much preferred the action and safety of my Mossberg over the Remington and Winchester offerings, and this way I don't have to buy a whole new gun and can start with what I like and build exactly how I want. *fingers crossed* Hopefully I can find a bigger mag and a shorter barrel than the old birdgun has now.
