Hopefully reliability is not impacted when adding the extension.

Once Dick's can get one from their distributer, I'll be happy to actually contribute to this thread.

Spent some time last night digging through these forums.. great information all around, cheers!

Haven't had experience with one on a pump gun, but I added a Nordic Comp +2 to my 930 and have had zero issues as a result...

New to the site. I've had my 590A1 for a little over a year now. It's the tri-rail version, so it came with the adjustable stock and railed forend. The only thing I've added so far is the Mako foregrip with light adapter (second picture). I've liked it, but I'm planning on swapping it for a Magpul AFG. I think it looks better and would be more sturdy in my hand. I'll move my flashlight to one of the side rails via a simple ring mount.

Here she is fresh out of the box. It was a Christmas gift from my wife:

With the added Mako foregrip:

I'm also planning on shipping my barrel to Vang Comp soon. A friend of mine has a Remington 1100 with the VCS, and the patterning difference between our two shotguns is amazing. I have to have it! :D

Posted pic in another thread a while back, but I guess nobody will complain too much if I add it to this thread also. 590 Mariner made 1989. No it's not 'real' stainless. Just polished marinecote. According to Havlin, no real stainless barrels, mag tubes or recievers were ever made. Still looks nice tho. I like simplicity, so no add ons will be forthcoming.

True stainless or not that's still a find looking gun.

They better not be. I paid for lead. ;) These are RIO, btw. Funny thing about the RIO 00 buck (clear cases), they are slightly longer than the other buckshot (#4), so although I can load 8 #4 in the tube, only 7 of the 00. Both are 2 3/4" but different design. Anybody ever experience this with other ammo?

i know my fiocchi #00 and #4 and remmy #5 and #9 are about the same length.

I've experienced the same thing with the Winchester PDX1 ammo. I can only feed 7 in the tube. When I compared them side-by-side to another 2 3/4" shell, the PDX1 was every so slightly longer.

I understand the engineering for this. Stuffing 9 00 pellets in a shell requires a little more room than a smaller pellet, hence the extra length. But I'm wondering how that would effect 00 in a 3" shell, given a 3" chamber? Would there be a problem or is this accounted for in a 3" chamber?
 
Re: I'll show you mine if you show me yours! 590 photo threa

Nope,

Shell length measurement is taken from an empty, unrolled hull. While variance does exist between manufacturers and different loads, a 3" shell will always be under 3" when loaded and crimped. Same for 2-3/4 shells...

Very nice, I've never seen a fluted barrel like that before.
 
Re: I'll show you mine if you show me yours! 590 photo threa

Thanks Old Mossy! I put a few rounds thru her and she went thru them with no hiccup! I will be changing stocks and forend in the near future!!!
 
Re: I'll show you mine if you show me yours! 590 photo threa
