Thanks a lot for the information. I've been subscribed since I first found your channel, and it's one of my favorites.@@GSquaredTactical
@yukon065 thank you
Looking forward to the follow up on this. Particularly if they gave you any pushback or difficulty because of the firing schedule and lack cleaning or lube over time. Not making excuses because if that alone was the issue then a good breakdown, clean and lube should have resolved the problem. Thanks for documenting this 👍
Yes sir we should have a partial follow up video put up tomorrow sometime it will not include absolutely everything, but it will give some insight as to what happened with the gun. I will tell you this we have not cleaned it because we intended to shoot it the entire 1500 round, although that has been a daunting task. The reason we did not clean it is because the reason it failed was a relatively small thing and we thought that we could fix it ourselves and just continue the review up to 1500 however, that’s when things started to get shady with Mossberg and, we ended up sending the gun back to them and they sent us an email yesterday telling us it would be 6 to 8 weeks before we received it back and what you learn what they have to do to fix it. It will be mind-boggling to you why it would take eight weeks. But either way I stay tuned for that video tomorrow. Thanks for watching and for commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you have not already.
Great testing, guys! Very honest!
Thanks Keanon we will have a update live tonight at 6
Thank you for the review
Yes sir thank you for watching
I love Mossberg, but that tang safety has always been a detriment for me. I grew up using crossbolt safeties on everything I shot from BB guns to shotguns to rifles. The worst idea Mossberg ever had was putting the tang safety on the Shockwave. I and everyone I know who has shot them has gotten a substantial bite from them. Hickok45 even took a pretty good hit from one. I've shot the 940 JM Pro and the Beretta A300 Patrol. The Beretta is simply a better shotgun, IMHO.
That’s a fair assessment; the safety is a drawback for sure especially after ours malfunctioned. Thanks for watching and supporting us
I have seen other videos on this 940 , safety failed and extractor breaking , maybe mossberg mite need to consider a recall
Or stop using MIM parts especially on those 2 items. I’m not one that cares that much about MIM parts but if it keeps breaking make an assembly line change. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
@@GSquaredTactical We just got the 940 tactical brand new and from shell 1, and on, it won't cycle, sometimes hard to pull bolt back after firing, sometime when pulling bolt back to eject shell gets jammed like in yours video. This is a brand new gun, I think I'm gonna call Mossberg and send it in for repair.
I honestly don’t know why I fell for it again from Mossberg. I’ve always liked their pumps 590 etc but I’ve never had a semi they made that’s worth a crap and I feel for it again. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
It's a nice looking shotgun and has some nice features for sure. I have been considering one myself. I agree with one of your other commentors that it looks like a bit of an ammo problem. But more so that Mossberg should have designed it with common ammo types in mind.
The ejector broke, the mag tube follower broke and the safety broke. It was feeding because the ejector broke because we had ran the same ammo for nearly 800 rounds without issue. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already

You should have switch ammo my friend and I both had feeding issues with Winchester white box .
That isn’t the issue the gun broke and over 60% of the 900 rounds we put through it was Winchester without issue. Not saying it’s the best ammo option but the gun simply has a broken part. There will be an update concerning it tonight at 6. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
I have a 940 Pro Tactical and mine wouldn’t extract the spent shells reliably either. I was shooting the same stuff as you, winchester 7 1/2 bird shot. Now I just shoot 00 buck and have zero issues feeding or extracting reliably
Yeah, we have a video up our actually broke, and we had quite the experience with Mossberg. Go check out the video explaining what happened. We did get it back. Repaired for Mossberg about two days ago still uncleaned so we are going to try to finish out the 1500.
Mossberg 940 JM Pro Failure update: Horrible customer experience?!

Can you show us the cleaning? Let us know what you find.
There will be an update video tomorrow around 6
My 940 was having ftf with light primer strikes. I sent it in but have not had a chance to shoot it since getting it back.
Let’s us know how it goes. Thanks for watching and commenting and be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
Not sure on the ftf bit on the light primer strikes, I had same issue. There is a simple fix, switch the spring with a rugwr 10 22 one. There is plenty of information online on how to do this. I haven't had an issue since.
@@nicklausmisiti5204Thanks. I will get an opportunity to shoot it this weekend. I’ll follow up. If I still have problems I will look at your fix.
I had one of these and it was a jam o matic. Sent it back to Mossberg at my own expense, and when I got it back, I had to call mossberg to find out what they'd done to it. Didn't matter, because it still stove piped consistently. Done with Mossberg semiautos. Shame because I liked the way it shot and handled. I do have a maverick 88, and it runs flawlessly.
Yeah I was fine with it until I dealt with customer service.
5901 a1s mag tubes are paper thin. Ive noticed a few other things too. I aint got no mossbergs. Benelli nova tactical 18.5. 870 police. And sx3 and sx4s
This one just started falling apart after about 800 g we just gave up it’s for sale lol. Thanks for watching and for commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you have not already.
Got one of these shotguns in the camo. Out of box fun gun. Shot about 300 rounds then got it out a year later it was jam city. The Magazine spring broke. Disappointed in this guns quality
Our spring follower broke, our safety broke and the ejector smh. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
I clean my guns after every use after watching The Yankee Marshall channel. 😂
I always do as well like a deep clean but we was testing a claim with this one
I have had similar problems with my 940 Pro Tactical.
It is on its third trip back to Mossberg to be fixed.
That’s nuts
No way!! I just purchased one today 🤦🏽♂️
@@Ventura727 I hope you have better luck than me with mine. My Thunder Ranch 940 is getting returned and I will sell or trade my JM Pro 940.
@@andy_in_nh9243 thank you, I’m hoping for the best
Let us know
Broken extractor?
It is we have an update that will be up in 2 days explaining everything. Sent it back to Mossberg because they wouldn’t sale me an extractor because the safety is broken. Said it’ll be 6 to 8 weeks to get it back and my experience with them was the worse I’ve ever experienced.
I see a lot of issues with these guns on the internet. Though some are happy with their Mossbergs but overall quality and reliability are not what Mossberg is known from my experience. I’ve avoided Mossberg guns for a long time now.
Yeah me too but got suckered into this one
Who is the shooter he looks familiar from competition
We haven’t done any competition shooting as of yet, might get into it one day!
I think oiling the bolt carrier would be very helpful at the least
Extractor broke, tube follower broke and safety broke. It was functioning fine then fell apart. Thanks for watching and commenting and be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
Nice
Ty sir
Yea it’s really hard to find an all around perfect shotgun, after watching reviews on many different semi automatic shotguns I’m starting to reach the conclusion of spending the extra money on the Benelli M4 to keep my conscience clear.
I feel ya on that. The M4 is a beast. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
Get a 1301. M4 is overpriced.
I already have the M4 so I guess 1301 is next. Thanks for watching and commenting and be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
I just bought the 940 pro in Od green, hope I dont have these troubles!!! 😂
I hope you don’t either genuinely
This saves ammo cost on the 1500 round challenge lol. I’m actually sad it failed though I really like it
Follow up soon
@@GSquaredTactical I been looking into buying one since you said light recoil. Few months ago I bought a franchi by Beneli but kicks crap out of me compared to my 1187 lol. I let the kids use it instead
What happened isn’t a huge deal but Mossberg has been difficult we will follow up soon
I wasted good money on one of these. Ashamed Mossberg has such a campaign for it and it simply doesn't deliver.
Almost dropped the bag 💰 of coin for one of these today at the Dixie Gun show in Raleigh. Decided to look around, ALOT, before spending a week pay.
I heard you comment on people saying "it's the ammo." So I won't say it.
Does it have recommended ammo? Cause 7 1/2 field shot ain't what I would feed a tactical semi.
Nice presentation. Look now to see if you resolved it.
They did send it back to me with no explanation of the work done, but they did replace the cracked mag tube follower the ejector and the safety as all three of them were broken. When I sent it to them, they required that give them a list of ammunition that I was using, which I had to do of course because it’s all on CZcams not like I can hide it and my FFL said they said that there was no issue with any of the ammunition I listed. Thanks for watching and for commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you have not already. PS we are just west of Charlotte.
Go buy the beretta !
Which one? 1301? Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
@@GSquaredTactical get the a300, same price as the 940 pro. Tons of glowing reviews
I will look into that. Thanks and be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
You can see there isn't the same gas pressure coming back to the bolt. Once you lubed up the bolt and it still did the same. That confirmed it. Needed to clean the gas tube assembly
Did you watch the whole video or the follow ups to this? The ejector broke, the safety broke and the mag tube follow broke. Inside a year old had to pay to send it back myself and they replaced the 3 items horrible customer service. So the broke ejector and mag tube is what confirmed it bro. Thanks for watching and be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
@@GSquaredTactical didn't know there was another video to this. Going to go look for it. So I take it you wouldn't recommend this shotgun? I was thinking this or the Beretta?
@StrapDLBStyle get the beretta 1301 or A300 why better product. The 940 has been plagued with issues not just mine. Thanks for watching
You just might need an SBEPRECISION piston.
We will have a follow up coming next day or 2 on what broke. I haven’t cleaned it yet because it was sent back to Mossberg and they emailed yesterday and said 6 to 8 weeks
Please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
I would suggest if you were using rounds with better power you would not have had any problem
Except that tells me you didn’t watch the full video. The ejector broke, the safety broke and the mag tube follower broke. There other videos with our horrible experience with customer service. Also, everytime a 10mm, 45 or 12 gauge fails that people like they blame the ammo or the shooter. We have ON CAMERA 830 rounds of this very same ammo without even one single issue and at 831 it all went down hill. Thanks for watching
It's a tactical shotgun. It's made to shoot buck shot, high brass and slugs. The Winchester ammo you are using is low brass. It will not cycle as well with the lower powered game and target loads., especially if it has not been cleaned.
We will revisit it one day and try that but unfortunately we do have limited resources. Everything we put into this channel comes out of our own pockets so we shoot what we have. But thanks for the info!
Either way the gun broke pure and simple was sent back to Mossberg for repair. We ran 100’s of rounds of Winchester through it without issue
BS…other tactical shotguns like Winchester sx4 and beretta 1301 cycle target bird shots just fine
People are people. We ran likely 400 rounds of Winchester through it during this review without a single issue. It broke just that simple. People will make excuses for anything they want to like and will go to any extremes to prove it. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
Not per Mossberg engineering "John Raciti, senior R&D project engineer for Mossberg, explain the design parameters: “Our main design goals for the 940 JM Pro were as follows: Improve the gas system to drastically increase the cleaning interval while improving the ability to cycle lighter loads with minimal break-in."
To me tactical implies short gun with high capacity for in building type shooting.
Clean it.
lol I don’t think cleaning it will fix a broke ejector, broke safety and broke mag tube but thanks anyway for the advice sir. Be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
I hate to say it.
But it's not the gun's fault.
It's operator error and most certainly improper ammo.
I've put thousands of rounds through my 940 JM Pro. All of them were high brass, high Dram equivalent, high-velocity ammo.
Not one malfunction!
It's either a lemon gun or improper ammo.
I hope it works out for you.
I hate to say it, but you are wrong. The magazine follower broke the safety broke and the extractor broke had to be sent back to Mossberg to be repaired. It ran well over 800 rds of that very same ammunition before these problems presented themselves but just like always when someone don’t want to hear a gun they like Being spoken in a negative like they will blame the operator nothing new under the sun
Operator error? The ejector broke. How is that our fault exactly?
@@GSquaredTactical I'm sorry. I did notice your ammo is at 1290 fps. It's a bit too slow for the gun.
Try using hotter ammo (1500+ fps).
@@GSquaredTactical In truly sorry if I offended you so badly.
You'll never hear from me being critical of you again.
Again, please accept my apologies. I'll never bother you again.
It wasn’t a bother at all but generally people ask before blaming the operator. We appreciate you watching and please subscribe if you haven’t already
This is upsetting. I wasted good money on this pos
Absolutely you did. After is was repaired and I confirmed operation I felt lucky to have sold it for $800. Thanks for watching and commenting and be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
All semi autos have problems, ejecting game, Loads
It flawlessly ejected 800+ rounds of this same ammo before the ejector and safety broke and the mag tube follower will be next.
@@GSquaredTactical OK thanks very much truly appreciate it but I know a lot of semi auto shotguns don’t like bird shot
Yeah that’s true
