Hello everyone, I recently bought my first gun a mossberg 590 shockwave 12 gauge. 2 days ago I was cleaning the barrel and noticed what looks like damage in the barrel.
Theres paint missing and scratches i am going to attach pictures. I shot two rounds of magnesium or “dragons breath” shotgun shells. Also i have shot at least 100-200 rounds of steel buckshot out of it. Im not sure if this is normal wear or damage. Either way I believe it is still useable i just want to hear everyones opinions so i dont do it to any shotguns i may get in the future. Also i thought maybe it was build up but I have cleaned it throughly and nothing came off.
