... And, I just don't like Mossbergs.................
....I've shared that sentiment since my first part time job in a gunshop during high school 46 years ago.....but they're kicking butt in the market place now. They, like Savage, may be real American success stories of quality-resurrection. Kind of the opposite of Remington, unfortunately.
I've owned a 590, and I can't say anything bad about that one.
1998, I ran a Sports Authority. Got a case of 5 Mossberg 500's in, wooden stocked.
3 buttstocks were split, 2 wooden forearms were cracked, not from shipping damage but from improperly seasoned wood. Of the 5 shotguns, 4 of them had sling swivel studs that did not have a hole drilled through them for the sling.
Needless to say I was shocked at the numerous issues and total lack of QC.
