We need a Maverick shockwave

Eh, why would Mossberg want to cannibalize their own market?

They gotta wait for sales to slow or for pressure from competitors first. Shockwaves are still selling pretty hot, and I suspect there's not much pressure from the Honcho and Tac-14.

I'd probably buy one, but I don't think we're going to see one for quite a while.
 
Good Morning,
Thank you for your email. We here at Mossberg are always looking for ways to improve and accommodate more and more of our customer’s needs. I have already forwarded this email to our new products department to see what they can do as I am sure you are not the only one looking for this configuration. Thank you again and keep an eye out for more exciting things to come from Mossberg in the future!
Sincerely,
Customer Service Team

I,m seriously considering getting a Shockwave. My concern is how will LEOs respond if they see it? We have many at the clup I belong to and they use it as their training range. How do you prove it,s a legit gun and not a sawed off shotgun? I was at a gunshop this week that does a lot of business with local LEOs and I asked the owner what they said, The owner said most would confiscate it and the gun owner would have to prove that its legit. They don,t have time to play around with something that they were taught is illegal. Does it come with paper work or any markings on it to prove it,s ok?

It does come with a letter, saying that *yes* this is perfectly legal federally speaking per ATF guidelines.

Whether or not that particular LEO takes the letter at face value and dosen't suspect it's something you printed up to try and trick them is a different question.
 
I did a form 1 sawed off pistol grip pump back around 2007 with a range of OALs for pistol grip and full stock use. The most useful configuration was the 14 inch barrel with full size stock.
The minimum configuration, with the pistol grip was pretty useless.

I like law enforcement and I’d happily explain any confusion to an officer who was unfamiliar with an item; I would estimate that 99% of the time, an officer wouldn’t care unless I was already doing something wrong. In a rare instance in which an officer is a jerk or tries to give me a hard time about the legality of any of my firearms or accessories, my response will be “This ____ is legal for me to possess and use.” There is no requirement nor expectation for me to carry around my tax stamps or to provide documentation regarding the legalities and nuances of gun laws. Should an item in question be seized and/or I be arrested, I would consult with an attorney for compensation as a result of false arrest and possible infringements of my 2nd and 4th Amendment rights.
 
Houge recoil tamer pistol grip $22 delivered. For as much as Ill shoot it.I put the money saved from buying a shockwave toward another stable addition. 18.5 barrel.
