Does anyone have any experience with the Mossberg 590A1 Retrograde? It looks like a mean machine. Does anyone know what bayonets will fit it? Thanks!
My brother has had one on order for a year now.
Not the retrograde because I change out stocks anyway, but I finally more or less gave away my very overused 6 shot 500 to a friend, bought an A1 a couple years ago, and I like. Just... nice. Seems like at least for commercial ones they give it a bit of extra love as it's very smooth from the factory. Inside and out. The parkerizing is old-school good as well. Thick and smooth, and nearly black, not something you see these days. Also, while not actually important, its just fun to have a metal trigger assembly.
The bayonet mount is silly but fun, but I did end up putting the KZ light mount on it, which is not a bad deal if not going with a lighted handguard.
The bayonet mount involves the muzzle cap, so if you use a side sling adapter (like I do) that is clamped under the cap, it will prevent the bayonet from locking as it changes the distance between the two key points.
