Mossberg Maverick 88 Part

It is, but then you wouldn't be able to have a safety since the Mossberg 500 trigger group utilizes a tang safety instead of the crossbolt safety on your Maverick 88

I think they intended these to be a throwaway gun. I have one that had a dent in the mag tube and I couldnt find a replacement for love or money. I wound up removing the dent with a ground down deep socket and some valve grinding compound. Good luck.

Just go right to the source and order the parts you need direct.

Come on, dude. Did you seriously write that or was that a joke? Too much alcohol or too little sleep? You have got to be kidding.

The trigger guard. They come up all the time between $30 and 45 or so.

Your mag tube. They run $10-25.

That's literally thirty seconds of searching on ONE site. I'm not even going to bother with the real parts suppliers like Numrich or Brownell's.

calm down bro's, this is only the internet.

I do not want to buy a used part and I do not trust or make "auction" purchases.

I bought a Maverick 88 a few years back and changed out the stock for a ATI Collasible stock, been a solid gun for the $150 i paid for it new from Academy, But i would not consider it a throw away gun, sure has brought home alot of doves and turkeys for me

Seriously? Call Havlin Sales. Call Mossberg directly. It's hardly a rare gun and it's still in production. The mag tubes are the same as Mossberg 500 like most of the parts are.

Seriously, kids these days...

The Mav 88 is a 500A in nearly every respect. Hardly throwaway.

The sky is blue and water is wet unless its frozen, then its cold. Argue about that for a while. Been a member here for soon to be 5 years and have less than 30 posts. I guess that makes me a lurker. The Maverick is a Throwaway or sometimes called a Throwdown. Its Cheap Cheap Cheap. Cheap to buy, Cheaper to make and Cheaply made. You can bet on it. Like a Ford Escort or Hyundai Excell. You buy it to use it cause you cant afford much else and you drive the wheels off and then you leave it it where it quits. I like my Maverick down here in the swamp because it will kill a copperhead or a rattlesnake at a distance. If it falls off the tractor and I run over it I havent lost much. I go get another one. Ive used mine for three years it still works and it doesnt owe me anything at this point. Thats my opinion, my point of view or if you cant quite get your mind around that its just the way I see it. Have a nice rest of your life...without me.

I don't consider a Model 88 a throw-a-way but I do consider mine a beater gun.
It goes where my much nicer shotguns wouldn't dream of going, duck boats, rain/snow soaked deer stands, through the merry bramble bushes looking for rabbits, etc.

Tell you what, bud....next time you can't find a common, dime a dozen part because you're too busy or too rich to spend two mins to look for it, send that "throw away" gun my way. I'll even pay the postage. I'm guessing I shouldn't hold my breath, though, right?
