Racking a mossberg “should” send an intruder running. If not they are more stupid than you can imagine.

Depends on the situation. In the dark, racking it reveals your position to an armed intruder. Not a good idea.

That is mostly a myth and I won't count on it. My 870 will be loaded and racked before I ever try to confront home invaders.

It also tells the bad guys where you are and what you are armed with
