Published on August 18, 2018

I know I said in the title that our old buddy Hickok45 was gong on a ‘Big Game Hunt’, but he was talking about several different targets he has set-up on his range. Sorry if you’re disappointed that they aren’t real animals. The weapon he’s using today is the Mossberg 590M, magazine fed shotgun, so let’s concentrate on that for a minute before you watch the video alright?

About the Mossberg 590M from their website:

590M shotguns and magazines are uniquely designed incorporating stabilizing ribs that engage the magazine directly to the receiver for a sure lock-up. The 590M™ Series offers magazine-fed convenience in the legendary Mossberg pump-action tactical platform.

For home security, tactical, and competition applications, 590M Mag-Fed pump-actions offer many practical advantages: faster reloading/unloading, increased capacity without additional magazine tube length, and quick and easy transitioning between various types of loads.

Full magazines are the center of gravity point, making the 590M shotgun easy to balance for greater accuracy. The 590M is designed around the Mossberg 590,® the choice of tactical users worldwide and time-tested over decades of dependable service.

The features Mossberg tactical pump users expect are all there: Dual extractors, Twin action bars, Positive steel-to-steel lockup, Drilled and tapped receiver, Ambidextrous safety, and a Heavy-walled barrel.

590M Accessory magazines are available in 5,10,15 and 20 shot capacity.

590M™ SERIES ACCESSORY MAGAZINES PACK MORE ROUNDS INTO SHORTER MAGAZINES — QUICKLY AND EFFICIENTLY ADDING CAPACITY.

The world’s first production double-stack 12GA shotgun magazine offers a shorter magazine length vs. capacity than competitor’s single-stack designs, providing better swing, balance and control.

Magazine construction highlights: Hardened steel feed lips, over-molded steel shell ramps, easy-grip external molded design, proprietary self-lubricating polymer magazine body material, heavy-duty ASTM-A-228 music wire magazine spring, removable floor plate for easy cleaning, and a tough black oxide finish on steel components.

For shooting flexibility, 590M magazines are available in 5, 10, 15, and 20-Round, and are for use with 2.75” shotshells.
