    Cheapest place for a Mossberg 590A1?

    I'll be buying my first shotgun soon, so I'm wondering who sells the Mossberg 590A1 the cheapest. Not the 590, but the 590A1 with 9 rnd capacity

    I think they are sold at Big5 and go on sale for ~$310. Can anyone clarify that?

    I'm located in Santa Rosa in Nor-Cal, and I don't want to have to drive too far to go get it. Maybe within a 40 mile radius.

    call your local gun store before going to big five and buy from them if they can match the price

    I heard a nasty little rumor (I may have started it without having any reason to believe it tru) that the mossbergs at big five have major rust problems :P

        nothin wrong with the big 5 moss590s. buy it. Its the best deal around for a new one. In fact I bet you'll find that at that price, you would end up with a used one at most shops. Now... if you dont mind getting slapped, crapped on and flamed in both the gun shop and this forum.... then by all means, go in there and ask them to match Big 5s prices. I am pretty sure you'll regret it. If your local shop knows/recognizes you at all... that question will likely move you to the top of their sh@t list .

        Hmmmm... so you guys really think that the moss590s from Big 5 will rust more than one from your local shop?

                Will do, and thanks for everyones input.

                I have never heard of rusting problems. The 590A1 is the military grade version, so if it's good enough for them, then it's good enough for me

                  i thought that the parkerized finish prevents corrosion of the steel. I mean unless you abuse your piece and leave it out to rust itll eventually rust but any 590 thats well maintained wouldnt have a rusting issue

                    I have not found a moss yet that has not had a small rust issue somewhere on the Shotgun. Would that stop me form buying one. No. Does it make me wonder that they develop some rust - nope (something in the finish I guess)- everyone I know who owns a moss has the same minor issue.. but these are one heck of a shotgun to use.. You will enjoy the 590 (It's big)!

                      Id like to take a moment to point out that the rust thing was a joke

                          Big 5 does NOT sell the A1 (M#51663). Only the 'standard' 590s (M#50645).

                              Thanks for that info. It really helps to have a model # to go by


                              I'll be calling around tomorrow, so I'll be posting updates on prices.
