RMSc / K footprint

Optic ready 590 with the RMSc Footprint. I paired it with the Vortex Defender CCW enclosed emitter optic. It’s supposed to be a direct fit but I feel like the optic didn’t sit flush on the recoil lugs on the receiver. I added the “1 degree shim” >!(in the video I said 1 inch, My mistake)!< but now the optic sits slightly above the lugs and it bothers me that the optic is canted forward.

For those of you with optic ready Mossbergs, which optic are you running and did you have to add a spacer/shim or plate?

My shooting buddy says he wouldn’t trust the optic if it didn’t sit perfect on the recoil lugs as that can lead to a mounting failure. >!I did make sure to torque to spec and used orange loctite!< my biggest concern was wanting to zero to 25 yards but the shim package says “use if zeroing less than 15 yards”. I know I may be over thinking. Any insight is appreciated

Picked up my new baby yesterday

I already had the limbsaver and Esstec 7 round clip on hand so they went on pretty quickly. The blanks I have loaded there are not actually attached to the velcro yet, I'm letting it cure for 24hrs, I just lightly rested them on top for the photo.

Don't rag on me too hard for the locks, I have to be extra cautious in my home for now as I'm very green.

I picked up the Mossy Mav88 Security 20"barrel 7+1 & a Ruger 10/22.

Maverick 88 Wood conversion

Sorry in advance because I’m sure this has been asked. What is the best way to go about converting a maverick 88 12 gauge into wood stock and wooden forearm. I have read I need a 7 3/4 tube assembly but can anyone recommend where to find the stock and pump section. As well as the tube assembly and cap? Or any tips or steps to do this. Thank you

First Shotgun 590A1

Magpul forend, Houge 12” LOP stock, Streamlight TLR RM-1, shell carrier I designed because I didn’t like the Esstac shotcards.

Weird user error with the 940: went shooting with a buddy, we shot about 150 shells trading off the same gun. Ran flawlessly in my hands. Failure to feed every 2-5 shots for him. Any ideas what this could be?

We were using the same shells from the same boxes, he would fire ten with two or 4 FTFs, hand it off to me, I would run ten shells without any issue.

First couple times I went “oh it’s not clean enough and he’s getting unlucky, but after a while I got convinced it’s user error. We’re about firing at the same rate and he’s not holding the trigger down after firing or anything so I can’t grasp what it could be.

It’s a very new gun so not much experience on it. Hoping someone who knows what they’re doing could explain this.

Light mounting advice

Hey everyone, just got this this mossberg maverick 88 security model at my local gun shop for 225(comes with a 20 inch extra barrel), i want to keep the same 18 inch barrel and use a light on here too, I am not opposed to swapping barrels since im not seeing a lot of other options online, I just want to keep it as stock as possible since I really do like it the way it is, especially since its in the only shade of FDE I like on a gun.

Barrel

I realized I used a chamber brush to clean my barrel. Does my barrel look damaged? If clearer pictures are needed lmk.

I just LOVE a Mossberg shotgun!

Mossberg shotguns are absolutely great firearms. Top of the industry for sure! Are they the finest crafted, no. Are they the most expensive, no. They work. Every time, all the time. From my first firearm purchase to my most recent. Although I have many others in between. Mossberg has always been there!

990 AfterShock SPX

I’m leaning more towards the top version for camping this upcoming hunting season. Minus the stock and sights everything else is the same with both of these?

How often do you clean Mossberg 590

I only shot 10 rounds of slugs today. It was cleaned and lubed the other day. Is it really necessary to clean or re lube after only 10 rounds? It's stored in a safe with two dehumidifiers.

Morgana has a friend.

Seeing as Morgana (Mag) is intended to be an inheritance hand off I got her a little friend. I will be making a custom wrap-around butt stock which will have the info on the AI-generated ideas. I will do a leather over wrap with the same info. I will mount either an SF crest or Master Parachutist Badge on the throat.

The Evolution of Morgana

Project Morgana.

I was unable to get the rear between receiver and stock sling mount on. All my screw drivers are just too damn short. I have to get a longer screwdriver to remove the stock.

The bat wing top mounts will be for later upgrades possible night light or small laser. Perhaps holding a small DIY "Smile for the bright light flash" 1" x 1" facing forward sign. The gap between the top rail mounts will be for a picantanny mounted DIY set of rear site protection Wings.

I don't want to replace the whole site, I just want wings.

With the bat top mounted rail mounts I still have a good sight picture.

Ah, an old man and his shotgun.
