    Man, that is way better than the bead sighted ones! (not a fan of the speed feed either, tho)

    5+1 (2 3/4). Mossberg regular PGO doesn't work as it will be around 23-24" and thus, restricted unless you go with a birdshead grip making it 26" OAL.

    Think about what you want the gun for and whether that short barrel is really right for you. If it is, the 590A1 is a good gun and you'll be happy. I had a 14 inch barrel shotgun that was much nicer (Fabarm SDASS Martial) and sold it to get a 590A1 with those sights and a 18.5inch barrel that suits my purpose better. (The Mossberg is solid equipment, the Fabarm is a thing of beauty, it was like shooting jewelry.)

    For extremely weak people, yes. For me, I was shooting 00 Buck with one yesterday. I find it quite comfortable, but I'm a bigger guy than most and mine has a brake on it w/Hogue PG. Will try slugs next. It's actually pretty awesome.

    Old dude Hickok45 shoots them one handed but others can't seem to do it. The Birdshead grip is a viable option on this shorty, the OEM Mossberg PG is garbage and won't meet OAL requirements for NR status.

    Great to see more on the market. But there is often a large discrepancy with POA vs POI with GRs on short barrel shotguns. Nothing beats a bead with this configuration.
