I have now had two different polymer Mossberg trigger units in which the rear crosspin has move partially out. See the picture below where I am pointing. Fir the most part the shotgun operates fine. It just makes disassembly a bit more tedious. I need to remove the rifle stock in order to get the trigger guard out as the cross pin protrudes just enough.
Mossberg has send me a replacement trigger unit and I will inspect after 250 rounds to see if it has the same problem. If it does, I'm curious if anyone else has had this problem and what they did to fix it.
One possible fix would be to put a drop of epoxy on each side of the pin so it can't wiggle out. The unit costs only $90 and I've never had one break. So even if I need to buy a new one it's not that much.
Also, I don't recall this being an issue on my aluminum 590A1 trigger unit so I could just buy a metal trigger unit from my 500.
I look forward to hear if others had had this issue and if they have found a simple solution.
