I’ll gladly take three - can I at least PP you postage?

I just installed a GG&G modified Magpul forend on my Shockwave yesterday. The work GG&G did is much cleaner than I or probably anyone could have done with a Dremel - it’s very professionally done.

I just installed a GG&G modified Magpul forend on my Shockwave. I’d like to provide a bit more protection for the racking hand - a handstop that doesn’t take up much of the forend, or maybe a strap. Has anyone tried anything like this? I’m not interested in a handstop that takes up the...

Very nice! I have a 51417 that I bought new, I just replaced the barrel with a new heavy wall unfluted interchangeable choke one because a local gunsmith messed up the installation of a set of Mossberg ghost rings.

Ok, I punched four additional holes in the replacement strap and folded the strap over so the screws were outside the loop - no more hand contact with screw heads. I’d upload the pics, but the website isn't iPad friendly.

Actually, it’s due to my experience with a similar GG&G mount on my Beretta 1301T...

To me, that mount looks like a recoil finger injury waiting to happen...

The Mossberg rep I spoke to a few weeks ago mentioned this was coming, but asked me too keep it under my hat. Glad to see it was almost ready at that point!

Lol - thanks, guys! Enjoying the Rockies with my sweetie.

I’m on my honeymoon right now, but I have a replacement strap waiting for me when I’m back. I have an idea of how I want to do it and will report back if it works.

My 590A1 came stock with Magpul furniture. There are no forend interference issues with my heavy fluted barrel, and I relieved the buttstock to allow the trigger group to be removed without pulling the stock.

Looks good, but have you shot it yet? I’ve found side mounts like that tend to bite the web of my hand - I avoid them.

I did read through all the pages, thanks!

My $329 Brownells special came in. I haven’t had a chance to shoot it yet, but I’m already looking at ways of changing the way the handstrap is attached to put the screwheads outside of the loop.

I just got off the phone with Mossberg. The rep I spoke with was great, he mentioned that the magazine length on the 590A1 changed fairly recently, and he was able to cross-reference a new 18.5” barrel with front ghost ring that would fit my shotgun. $200. It appears I’m looking for part...
