The key issue here is we don't have any background "facts", and to sit here and throw stones at Mossberg is ridiculous because you dont know if the rifle had been taken apart, or altered in any manner inconsistent with proper rifle maintenance.

Would I buy a Mossberg rifle, already have some. You are basing your comments on zero substantive facts of any reliance other than your biased opinion.

It's just like the Remington cases, the rifle should never have been aimed at anyone in the first place.

There is a place for low cost gun manufacturers, fact is, there are some that would never be able to afford to hunt were it not for companies like Mossberg.

I don't know you from adam, but I've shot too many Mossberg guns to have much interest in your biased opinion.
