Have put about 8 rounds through it.

ETA: And I know where that comment is going, lol....
I still believe in the Riddle of Steel, I guess, but to be honest, no bad guy is gonna want to hang around long after seeing a crazed naked man in a unicorn mask charge out brandishing a shotgun with a bayonet sticking off the end, screaming "BLOOD,BLOOD, BRIGHT RED BLOOD!!!"
sounds like a bunch of cope and seethe to me. mossberg hasnt gone bankrupt, remington has lmao.I know this will probably trigger some Mossberg lovers but how could this shotgun possibly beat out the 870 or the 1300 in reliability or ease? I cleaned one up for a friend and it felt like it was made of cheap Chinesium with the aluminum and plastic. Pulled the trigger pack out and had both shell stops fall out. Also while torqing on the barrel nut the stock twisted on the receiver. I know it was my first time to mess with a Mossberg but it was much more difficult to manipulate in putting back together than any Winchester, Remington, Benelli or Beretta. Felt as if I needed a third hand. The only other pump I disliked cleaning this much was the Browning BPS but atleast that was good ol metal not plastic. I know the military adopted these but that doesn’t always mean they are the best.
Thats true, but bad business practices do not equal bad design.sounds like a bunch of cope and seethe to me. mossberg hasnt gone bankrupt, remington has lmao.
