Got one of these this weekend.

#50665 590® 12 ga. Pump Action 9-shot capacity, parkerized finish, bead sight, 20" cylinder bore barrel with heat shield and Speed-Feed® stock

Uh huh.

Very similar, this is what I've been recommending:

Remington 870 Marine Magnum

Mrs. harpseal and I have a matched set (sequential serial numbers) of identical Mossberg 590's. If any intruder gets through the 12 gauge fusilade then They are up agaist 9 .45acp 185gr hollow points in chest and head from me followed by my back up 9mm with sixteen 115gr hollowpoints and Mrs Harpseal's .357 magnum.

Enjoy your new toy.

I was thinking about the heat shield, because I was worried that rapid firing would cause the barrel to overheat. With the Mossberg, you have the option of the ghost ring sites -OR- the heat shield, but not both. I opted for the ghost ring sites that come with the 51663, and I am happy to report that we haven't generated any real heat in multi-shot situations. At most, I've felt only what you would call a warmth from the barrel.
