I had been looking at a Mossy 930 SPX but ended up with a 590A1 which I got a great deal on. Individual needed $$, claimed he only shot about 25rnds through it and sold it to me for $300.
The weapon was exceptionally well maintained and was very clean. It came with a no name two point sling and a Mesa Tactical six rnd side saddle.
After talking with my CATM NCOIC he stated that I should swap the magazine tube spring for a more reliable one and also install a Hi-viz magazine follower. He also stated that those were just two of the multiple factors led the AF away from the 590A1's and towards the 870 MCS's we now use.
I know very little about shotguns and have been reading this sub-forum as much as I can to gain more knowledge. But I have still have yet to find any reccomendations on where to buy accessories for my "boomstick". All I am looking for is a front sling end plate and where to get the follower and spring at this time. Eventually I will be adding a Surefire fore end and a VCAS sling.
TIA
