What's wrong with you, Mossberg?

it has been posted here alot, no new suprise........

yes its ugly.....

but to answer your question on "why?"........Because we all know that the damn recoil on a .22 is unbareable

That is the first Ive seen it.

I think it is downright franken-funny.

looks pretty cool but I think mossberg got a brake craze

Mossberg employee #1: "Hey, did we get that order of 1,000 muzzle brakes in, yet???"

Mossberg employee #2: "1,000??? I thought you said to order 10,000!!!"

Mossberg employee #1: "What the hell are we gonna do with all these muzzle brakes???"

Mossberg employee #2 (future VP of Mossberg): "Let's put 'em on the Plinksters!!!"

Mossberg employee #3 (new to the conversation and future CEO of Mossberg): " Have any of you guys seen my design for a tactical 30-30 with a muzzle brake, folding stock, vertical fore-grip, and laser rail mount??? I call it the Mossberg 464 SWAT!!!!"

Yeah its kinda rediculous. Except I would buy that tactical lever action that was mentioned

Oh well, guess people want a .22lr that they think is a Barret .50

it's something to look at in a picture but thats as far as it goes

Mossberg has always had an affinity for the strange , some of the first thumbhole stocks on production rifles , the flip down end piece on the fore end that doubles as a vertical grip on the 22 rimfires.
Had a vertical fore end grip on one of their pump shotguns.

Then of course they make one of the best pump shotguns going.

I'll say it first: That's gorgeous.

Not to mention their bulpup shotgun.

If they make one with a 16 inch bull barrel I'm going to buy one but as it is it looks way out of balance to me

Another odd thing that Mossberg does is all of their long barrels for 12 gauge shotguns are ported. I've never heard anyone say anything positive about ported shotgun barrels so why they are doing this is beyond comprehension.

Mossberg? Strange? Three words: Bolt. Action. Shotgun.

Love mine, but it freaks people out at the range.

A faux .50 cal----lolollo

Aren't the .22's made in Brazil or somrthing like that?

I'm guessing they're going after this market:


The evil black tactical assault .22 crowd

photoshop much?


The mossberg would be your basic long range .22 tactical counter sniper rifle

Way to defend her.......

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA... ok...ok... ok... HAHAHAHAHAHA ok... woooo thats funny and this coming from a guy who owns a "sniper" 10/22 that thing is rediculous
i think gunsandreligion is right i think Mossberg has just gone insane with muzzle brakes

WHY??

Please reduce the size of your pictures. A dial up member will be loading this page until Tuesday.
I must agree with you though. It's daft, but I bet they'll sell all kinds of 'em.

Mossberg currently has a muzzle brake fetish. I'm waiting for them to come standard on the 464.

Besides. How many people are now talking about Mossberg because of it.

The more people hear the name, the better.

oh.....heres another one i found.....its a Model 817.......just a freakin shame that they would do somethin like this to their guns.......

I recently saw a picture of their shotgun with the same break on it. Completely ridiculous! However, if you build it, someone will buy it.

Midas Brake Job anyone? Worth thier weight in gold! Maybe they are trying a bit padding the revenue.

The brake probably weighs more than the gun itself.
