so i got this here mossberg...

[pauli]

...and access to a camera. sorry in advance, it doesn't QUITE fit on my main screen either

18.5" 20ga cyl bore, 5+1 capacity (with the dowel out). it kicks... perfectly.

it patterns like you'd expect, though. winchester value pack ends up in about a 12" circle at 7 yards. on the plus side, the pattern looked VERY even to my eye. i'll have to play with it more another day, maybe with some buckshot.

serial is L6706xx. anybody know how old it is?

apparently, my sister's boyfriend plays a few shotgun games. i guess i'll have to look into a more suitable barrel for such things and go spend some time with the guy for once

or maybe drive out to greenbelt...

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I know the forearm is factory of the older mossbergs but is the stock factory? If its not do you know where I can get one?

Call or Visit Vic Havlin

Vic Havlin is the Mossberg historian and knows more about Mossberg than anyone at the factory, including Iver Mossberg. His web site is www.havlinsales.com and you can get his contact information there.

+1 for Vic Havlin. Good place to get old/obsolete/factory second parts for a good price. If you have a Mossberg check 'em out.
