    New Mossberg 590A1

    I went to the gun show in Lancaster this weekend not looking for anything in particular but spotted a Mossberg 590A1 for $400 on the Quantico Tactical table. I’ve wanted one of these ever since I saw the GIs in Iraq carrying this model. I also, picked up a can of 80 12GA Fiochi low recoil OO buckshot for $55 from LA Ammo.



    Cheers,

            Congrats, that is a good price.The Mossberg 590A1s are tanks. I bought the US Service Model with the 20 inch heavy-walled barrel and 8+1 capacity.

              Congrats. It is truly the best. Here's some fun reading for ya:

              "The 590A1 was first introduced in 1980s. Born from the 500 series that appeared in 1960, it has, at the U.S. Navy’s request, a heavy-walled barrel, metal triggerguard and safety, and a new corrosion-resistant finish.

              Nine-shot versions were fitted with a bayonet lug. Before adoption the gun passed a 3,000-round endurance test with buckshot and slugs that allowed for just three malfunctions. It was the only gun tested that passed. Sand emersion, saltwater fogging and interchangeability tests were also part of the procedure. The 590A1 was adopted by the U.S. Army, Navy, Coast Guard and several Special Forces units and has since been issued by several hundred police departments, as well as state and federal agencies including the NYPD and the Texas Department of Public Safety."

                I've had a 20" 590A1 for 16 years, it's a great shotgun. Now, I just need to hit the range more often.

                            I see the 500 for 299 but not the 590. What am I missing?
