All 5 of the Mossy 500s our local academy just bought went back to the factory as soon as we were done at the range. Some of the biggest POSs I’ve seen.

The guy over here with the A1 that runs.
I guess I need to get my hands on a newer production 590 and see what’s up. 🤔🤔
Nope. Safeties were so hard to disengage we stopped using them because they required to thumbs pushing forward to get them to move. One cadet sliced his thumb open trying to get it to move. And with slugs, they were WAY off. Another instructor and I went out and sighted them in and had to put a piece of duct tape on the stock telling the cadets where to aim to hit the preferred area. Ailing normally would have caused hits high, which would have been misses.

Bead sights just get no respect anymore.
There's nothing civil about this war.

The 18" bead sighted barrels on Mossbergs essentially require you to not be able to see the bead to have a proper sight picture. When I use a student's gun I actually "aim" with the screws in the top of the receiver to hit point of aim.
