So where have all the Mossbergs gone?

[Deplorable Me]

Last year I had no problems getting repair parts for my 500/590 shotties. The parts guy I talked too was working at home.


However I have not seen any new 500/590s in the market since last year. I can understand people buying them up but I've not seen any new inventory. According to their website they are being produced but production has slowed down due to spacing for COVID.

Anyone seen anything in the pipeline?

I don't think this is a Mossberg specific thing.

I need a new trigger assembly for my 500.

China decided to stop arming its citizens.

Xref the on line schematics, have the serial number handy and drop a email to customer service. They sent me an email and contact info for their parts guy. I called the parts guy and he walked me through the parts to confirm what I needed. Keep in mind he was doing this from home.

I own a 590 A1 that I very much like and have been considering the removable magazine modification. Kinda of dragging my feet as I worry about how it might influence reliability. Anyway, in lieu of that I thought I might grab a Shockwave in .410 just for shits. Sort of a frivolous purchase as I am not really onboard with the concept. I know Mossberg makes one but trying to find one is quite the challenge.

I agree with others and I think it's all gun manufacturers are having a tough time keeping things in stock. I've been debating on selling my 20-inch 500 because I want to buy an 18in 590, but I won't sell until I know it can be replaced.

Haven't checked in a few weeks but the last time I looked they didn't have anything.

Midway, Brownell, Numerich, have all been lean for awhile on spare parts. Drop a message to Mossberg customer service on their website. They'll respond with an email and contact phone number to get the ball rolling to talk to a live person. The on line website ordering doesn't have the full spectrum of parts.

Numerich Arms

Just checked. Out of stock.

 

[pshift]

I have a 590. All parts and accessories are out of stock. I waited 7 months just for the MagPul stock.

I've seen a few around, for way too much.

Maverick 88s for $300.

Thats what my 8 shot 500 cost just a few years ago lol.

I've seen them at the auction sites via the small on line dealers but nothing from the big dealers. I'm think NIB safe queens.

They may be filling police and military orders. But some has to be hitting the public warehouses.

I paid less than 500 for my 590A1, of course that was six years ago.

I'm looking at Mossbergs on Gunbroker for shits and giggles. The Shockwave model is selling for $200-300 above a pistol grip model or stocked model that can easily be converted to a pistol grip or birds head model. Can't figure that one out.

Check Hessney Auctions

PSA has had them a couple of times recently. For $599! I paid less than $300.

 

[ArmedCorgi]

Man, I bought my 500 for around $300 right after the safe act was signed. I'll never forget how it was in that gun store that day. All walks of life in there buying what they could.

 

[Howdy]

I've been waiting to get one of these for awhile now.

Don't need them, just want them. Like collecting cars.

I was in this time frame also. I know a few months earlier it was cheaper and came with a second barrel. I think I paid $330 for it.

I have been looking for a new shotgun for a while now. I wanted to get a semi auto. I liked the Mossberg 930SPX quite a bit. Couldn’t find one anywhere except for occasionally a very overpriced one on GB. Well, I just “pulled the trigger” on a gun that wasn’t even on my radar until recently. Many say it’s better than the Benelli M4, and costs nearly as much, especially for the version I got. I will post it in the “what did you get today” thread when it arrives (if I am able to pass tue background check). If not I will ask my FFL for the “gun show loophole” special. Stand by folks.

FYI just got an email from sportsman's warehouse saying that Mossberg mariners are back in stock

I just may have picked up another maverick 88 security. $239.

Yeah yeah, mavs and mossbergs are so similar it's just apples to slightly less feature rich apples. Well, it isn't getting optics, and the mav 88 slides are dual action bars with a steel tube now. It's all I need.

I had to order it online. No local shops in a 120 miles radius had an American security shotgun.


You can't have too many security shotguns. This is number 4 for me.

I like your way of thinking. Mavericks are nice plain Janes.

 

[SonOfSun]

88s are great. I have one. It's always been reliable and cheap enough that you don't really care about bumps and knocks, etc. Perfect for what it is.

My first Mossberg 500, I got used at a yard sale (pre SAFE) for $60 and that included two barrels! Guns still here sitting upstairs just waiting...
