Re: First Shotgun Mossberg 500 What do I need to know?
I doubt this shotgun will go tactical. It's going to be the third choice for HD after my M&P handgun and AR. I want it to remain a barrel change away to hit the trap field. The most I might put is a shell holder on the stock.

Re: First Shotgun Mossberg 500 What do I need to know?
The Mossberg combos, either the field and security or the field and rifled slug barrel I believe offer allot of versatility for the price.
In my research for a entry level but reliable all purpose pump shotgun it came down to the Mossberg 500 and the Remington 870. It sounds like the 870 could have a reputation for slightly better quality but that could also be fanboyism talking. The combo deals on the Mossberg defiantly tilted the economics in its favor for me.
This photo I found is about exactly how I will have the shotgun setup while stored at home.

I wont need the trap/skeet whatever barrel. I like the shell holder on the stock.
I need to get searching for a fairly priced one now!!Gunowner99 - NRA Benefactor Life Member

If you just want the security. Take a look at the maverick 88. It is a much cheaper option and is basically a Mossberg 500 rebranded.

Don't forget for the REM. 870 crowd, You have the H&R pardner pump (protector) as an alternative. But the Mossberg 500 combo sounds like a sweet deal.

Re: First Shotgun Mossberg 500 What do I need to know?
I have the 500 and a Maverick 88. Barrels definitely do interchange. The 500's trigger group supposedly holds up a little better over time because the safety isn't part of it, but unless you are shooting an 88 an extreme amount, it will never be a problem.
