I just acquired a Maverick 88 in a trade deal for a planer i had. The serial number starts with MV 050. 20" barrel Security model I am guessing.

Any idea on how long they need to be?@JPower As far as adding a rail on the receiver you should be good to go.
They started drilling and tapping receivers in 1990-91. The early ones were 6-48 thread. After 1997 the are 8-40 thread.
And what kind, socket head, torx, etc?Any idea on how long they need to be?

They have the rails on amazon, but a lot of the reviews said the screws included with the rail didnt work. The last thing i want to do is dick up my receiver. Mossberg.com parts situation frankly sucks.
The standard rail for a 500, 1997 and later, is made by Weaver, part number 417M in a 48440 matte finish.
It's 4.5 inches long and comes with 4 each 8-40 screws.
This rail also fits a 590 and 835 models.
If you only need screws any good hardware store has 8-40 raised headed screws. The threaded portion is about 3/16 of an inch long if my memory serves me correctly. Just use a good common screwdriver to install.
Hope this answers your question because unclear the length of rail your looking for or what you're trying yo mount.

Thanks for the info. Just the standard rail for a reflex or a red dot. With an 18.5 barrel i'm not going to be doing much slugs, mostly 00 buck or a little smaller for home d use.The standard rail for a 500, 1997 and later, is made by Weaver, part number 417M in a 48440 matte finish.
