I lean that way myself! I have an old Winchester Ranger 120 and a newer Remington to compare against! They are all great time tested pump action designs but I prefer some of the Mossberg features and ergonomics better. I know nothing about semi-autos! Lol!
I have a 590A1 and I am looking at my extractor and spring right now. Exactly the same as yours. I put Magpull furniture on mine to adjust the length of pull.
I have the exact one. I thought about the 940 but the pumps just work, no gas issues. And the 590 A1 is robust . If you can't shoot them or stab them, you sure as hell beet them with it. It ranks right up there with my 1911 TRP 10 mm gov. Just reliable. Great video, nice detail. I learned by watching I moved my shoulder strap lug from my thread barrel cap to my bayonet lug. Thank you👍😁 didn't know I could do that or even an option on mine.
I had a Remington 870 for awhile, i wanted to SBS it but ended up selling it to build out an AR lower. That’s probably the only gun I’ve ever sold that i regret and one of these days I’ll have to get another one. I don’t see an issue with the receiver being aluminum,5.56 runs at higher pressures and ARs are semi auto. That puts a lot more strain on the receiver than cycling with a pump I’d assume. ARs have been put through hell over the years and hold up great so idk i think I’d rather have aluminum than steel where possible.
Hard to beat the Remington's for the money but I've always leaned more towards Mossberg. I always liked the Winchesters too until they stopped making them here years and years ago! Don't know what's going on with what are now called Remington's these days? Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@peteregger7928 I’ve never been a big shotgun guy… i got one because biden said it was all i needed 😂.

@@peteregger7928 until he said to send two blasts at the front door yeah lol. I wouldn’t mind having a good semi auto shotgun something like the beretta 1301,they’re just so pricey. The cheap ar12 box mag fed shotguns don’t seem to be anywhere near reliable enough to depend on and the proprietary parts make them non practical. My 870 was 4 in the tube and one in the chamber and that was pretty crappy as well, i never tried those little short shells in it maybe that would have been an option
Thanks for a nice look at your 590. I have same with bead sight and camo furniture as it was easier to find in the 20 inch version. You sure have kept it very clean!
I think cost and wieght are the main reasons they have 590 and 590a1. Many who don't need metal trigger guard or heavy walled barrel will opt for lighter and less expensive 590.. plus 590 often has heatshield, vs heavy wall barrel, which can be removed for even lighter set up as many don't shoot enough to really heat the barrel up.
I think their web site is screwed up! They show the 590 without the speed feed stock which would be lighter at 7.75lbs. They show the 590A1 at 7.0lbs with the speed feed which would be heavier. I think they have that backwards? Assuming that they listed the specs backwards .75 lbs is significant.
@@peteregger7928a 9 shot 590a1, with all the factory accessories (loaded stock, bayonet lug, heavy barrel and metal hardware) fully loaded comes almost exactly at 10 lbs. just a little tid bit for ya
Just got a 590 9 shot 20 ga…added aftermarket aluminum safety and a TacStar 4 shot saddle mag…love it…I do wish it had choke tube option…would make it extremely versatile…
They are good shotguns! Not positive about 20 gauge but I believe most 12 gauge 500 series barrels are interchangeable if you wanted to go that route for a choke. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I think so! I don't see any real advantage to the "Ghost Ring" other than maybe changing out the front sight with some type of Tritium. But then you could probably do that with most shotguns anyway.
I have an original Remington 870 Combat Police Magnum and the ejector has 20,000 rounds on it at least and never had one problem but my original Mossberg 590A1 ,we are talking the 80’s model with wood stocks and heat shield, exact same gun the US Marine Corps adopted and it too has over 20k rounds on it, never a problem. I also have the 590 like you have and I have pounded it like a howitzer and it is still going strong! It is a tad lighter than a 590a1 just like it. Yeah I love shotguns. Riot and combat more so than anything else. Some folks would say hammering away with 12ga slugs, buckshot, and field loads is not fun,,,,,, I BEG TO DIFFER.
That's a lot of shoulder pounding! I've always liked the look of the 590's with the wood furniture! I also have a Remington 870 and a Winchester 120 Ranger. People say you mean a 1200? Nope it's a 120. It was a smaller run and was a little cheaper than the 1200 series. Just a basic shotgun! Bought the Winchester back around "84". Not a scratch on it! Thanks for watching and commenting!
I love that they offer a more affordable 590. I picked one up new for 440 I bought my 500 20 inch with the ghost ring sights for around the same price. I just wanted the bayonet lug I’m cool with the thinner walled barrel and polymer trigger guard and safety less weight. And mine came with a heat shield both did actually but who cares about the thinner barrel wall at that point I’m not on a naval ship going through whatever they call doorways it’s the navy I assume they call them something other then what everyone else calls them lol.also both my new made 500/590 same thing with tue spring on the extractor sticks out a little bit haven’t had any issues myself.
I've always thought the polymer trigger guard might actually be a little more robust! Bulkhead doors and hatches! Lol! Thanks for watching and commenting!
I saw this a couple days ago. I meant to say that if you detail strip that bolt and put some cold blue on that spring , it prolly won’t bother you as much.
That's a good idea! I have since found out that it's normal on Mossbergs so from a functional standpoint I'm not worried anymore. I've had the shotgun for a lot years and just recently noticed! Lol! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Loctitie is definitely a blessing here for that extracter screw. My gunsmith, unfortunately, is months behind in projects. I see no problems with the receiver being aluminum. How many hundreds of thousands of rounds has an AR receiver stood up to higher pressures of a 5.56? Not to mention, the gases don't come back through the receiver in a pump. More food for thought is the fact a gunsmith has more metal in the barrel to work with if you want to add a choke system. To my knowledge, Only one of the 590a1's comes with a choke system.
I've never heard of a Mossberg receiver failure just because it was aluminum. As you're saying the steel barrel chamber handles the load! It may have happened to someone but I've never heard of the extractor screw coming out either. The rivet on the Remington could just as easily fail or become loose in my opinion.
@@jefferycantrell5363 Joined "74". First five years I was an ADJ (Jet Engine Mechanic) which later just became AD. Got out as a AD2 (E-5) in "79". Went back in a couple of years later changing my rate to AT (Aviation Electronics Tech) specializing in PME (Calibration NEC 6673). Did 16 more years and retired in "97" after 21 years and some change as an ATC AW (E-7). Started off with a Med cruise aboard the USS John F. Kennedy CV-67 out of Norfolk, Virginia while assigned to a west coast squadron VS-21 out of NAS North Island. East coast and west coast both got the new S3A Viking aircraft at the same time but we were operational way ahead of schedule because the east coast Navy was a bunch of slugs at the time! That's how we ended up doing a Med Cruise with the brand new F-14 Tomcats as well! Then we did a WestPac onboard the USS Constellation CV-64. Went to shore duty assigned to VS-41 still at NAS North Island. Did quite a few work ups on the USS Nimitz CVN-68 out of Jacksonville, Florida. I was was supposed to be on shore duty at the time! Worked the flight deck with VS-21 the entire time working my way up to "Final Checker" training others not to get killed at the catapults. No one else at VS-41 had flight deck experience, were "high power" turn up qualified with a CDI (Collateral Duty Inspector) qualification which is how I kept ending up on the Nimitz. "The better you are in a whore house the more you get screwed!" Got out in "79". Went back in late "81" and was assigned onboard the USS Enterprise CVN-65 out of NAS Alameda as ship's company AIMD (Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Department )and did two WestPacs. Went to NAS Miramar AIMD for shore duty then to the USS Tripoli LPH-10 AIMD as ship's company at Naval Station San Diego (32nd Street) and did the Persian Gulf War both "Shield" and "Storm". That was a long one! About 10 months deployed! Back to NAS Miramar again for shore duty AIMD then the USS Kitty Hawk CV-63 AIMD as ship's company again then I retired! Because of broken service I did way more sea duty than the average sailor!
I got the 590. Afterwards I realized it was a pointless gun in between the 500 and 590a1. 500 serves the same purpose but more versatility. 590a1 same as 590 but better for not much more money.
Been awhile since I bought my 590 and I can't remember exactly when but I believe that the 590 I have was originally marketed around 1988 and if I remember correctly I purchased mine around 1998. I don't remember the 590A1 being marketed at that time but I'm sure it must have been? The 590A1was the result of the United States Navy wanting a heavier barrel for shipboard use but not sure when all that took place? The history of the 590A1 dates marketed for civilian use is a bit murky.
Well, I mean, I guess that makes sense, but the 590 was supposed to be the update to the 500 for the military, and the 590 A1 was supposed to be the update for the military for the 590. So historically that progression makes sense.
You Need The Adaptor For The Mossy To Utilize The Aguilla Mini Shells It Doubles That Capacity to 18+1 Pete 😀😊😀 They Have Slugs and Buckshot Rounds I’ve Shot Them Thru My Winchester Model 12’s 😀😊
I've seen some videos on those. More powerful than they look! Mossberg makes the 590S which is specifically designed to reliably shoot the mini's as well. Sounds like the adapter would be a good option if you don't have the "S" model or a shotgun designed for Mini. Are you using the adapter? Thanks Chris!
U Need To ADD: #1) The STREAMLIGHT TL-RACKER 1000 Lumen Foregrip Light... #2) The TACTALOAD FAST 5 STOCK, Which Hold's 5 Extra Rd's... #3) A 6rd Side Saddle, Velcro Shot Cards... #4) The BEST Home Defense Shotgun Ammo, Is The FEDERAL FLIGHT CONTROL 00-Buck, 8 Pellet Load...
I think the 590 for my intended use "home defense" is more than adequate. The A1 was more intended for hard use like LEO/MIL. Maybe have around 50 rounds on mine just to make sure it worked with a few different type loads and it just sits there waiting. I'm easy on my stuff.
The heavy barrel on the a1 was a requirement for ship board duty where hitting the gun against a metal bulkhead (wall) may deform it the barrel. Not an issue for a house made of 2x4 and sheet rock.
Can't say better other than just not having to reload as often if you're in the middle of it! This model of shotgun wasn't designed for bird hunting but more so for self defense. Also not having to buy or install a magazine extender if you own a Remington. If weight is a concern you could just load less but still have the option of more. Thanks for watching!
I have a Remington 870 as well! Got it before Remington imploded! It's a budget matte black bird gun with a really long 28" barrel. Came with a couple of screw in chokes. Bought it to shoot sporting course clays with my son. Works well! Thanks for watching and commenting!

28" is getting out there for me. I have an 870 and a Ranger 120 with long barrels. Like new condition! Very few rounds through them!
Sweet. I need a shotgun.
They are very versatile and with a rifled slug barrel 150 yards is doable with decent accuracy.

You would probably be just fine with the 590. The 590A1 was primarily to meet military requirements I believe.
