    Shockwave Magpul SGA OAL (over all length)

    Maybe my Google foo sucks, but can’t find an overall length on the inner web of a shockwave with a Magpul SGA stock installed (with no spacers). Of course I’m filing a form 1… any help appreciated as I’m having my trust updated tomorrow and attorney is throwing in the filing for my SBS.

    Remember, the Founding Fathers reason for the 2nd Amendment... to combat tyranny. Sadly, when people discuss the 2nd Amendment, the opponents erroneously think it was meant to stand alone... it HAS a preamble:

    "...But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security..."

    I would just add the length of the stock to the length of the Shockwave sans grip.

    Obviously I don't have one yet but Magpul "says" 12.3" for the SGA stock. Just thought it might be a common build.

    So Shockwave is 22” less birds head. Shortest Magpul SGA configuration is 12.3”. So 34” OAL it seems.

    That seems like a fair estimate.

    Make sure that works.

    I had a "Nightstick" 590a1 and I recall reading that standard 500/590 stocks would not mount to the receiver for some reason.

    Perhaps I'm confused with something else but check into that.

    Mine was a good gun but I decided I was done with slide-action shotguns. My favorites are doubles and SXS's.

    Seems the Magpul SGAs do bolt up.

    I think the fore end didn't work without modification. Stock was fine.

    Will be doing the Shockwave specific TL-racker up front. You do have to purchase the specific one.
