    Default Mossberg Bolt-Action Shotgun

    Can anyone tell any information about a Mossberg Bolt-Action Shotgun model 195KA? I have one with a fixed choke barrel, improved cylinder and front/rear sights. Can this gun shoot rifled slugs? I tried to locate an owners manual and also there is no serial number.

    My first shotgun, 51 years ago, was a Mossberg bolt gun in 20 ga. Mine had the PolyChoke & for deer hunting I'd screw open the choke to IC to shoot pumpkin balls.
    You didn't say how old the gun was or what condition the barrel was in, but slugs shouldn't do any damage to an IC barrel. It won't be as accurate as a dedicated slug barrel, but it should work.

    Thanks for the info! According to a Moosberg weblink, the 195KA was produced between 1956 to 1963. The only item I am purchasing is a newer 2-round clip. This weblink states that the KA model had a change to the barrel; did not say what the change was. Mine does not have the C-Lect Choke. Maybe the barrel was cut?
    Thanks again!
