Long story short;
Bought a 590A1 retrograde ,
Mossberg decal on butt stock peeled off the wood finish when removed ,
Got a new replacement stock sent out under warranty,
Stripped and refinished the original stock.
I used a razor blade to remove the original finish, then I steel wooled the stock and applied a few coats of Boiled Linseed Oil.
The original finish was a lacquer or some such thing , it wasn’t even bonded to the wood , literally peeled off like old paint.
I have no clue why mossberg would take such a nice piece of wood and cover it with a crappy finish like they did.
