I’ll have to look more closely at the mossberg line, thanks.
First you should know what you want to do with it. i.e. trap etc.
The 835 I have is more of a bug out/sporty gun. They only sell long barrels for it. They are overbored, they are a 12 gauge but the entire length of the barrel is a 10 gauge. I am corrected constantly by people who don’t own one (Ticking me off to no end) that they are backbored and only the back part is a 10 gauge. They are wrong and never actually went to Mossberg’s website. They can’t shoot slugs through with smooth overbored barrels can shoot more powerful 3 1/2” shells.
The 590 is like the 500, but sleeker, sexyer, and you can add a magazine extention. You’re stuck with 5+1 with a 500, but how many would you need in a home invasion scenario?
