$240 Mossberg 590 at WSS!

I stopped by the Nanaimo store on Monday this week. They were unable to sell ammo or firearms as they had forgotten to renew their license and we're unable to renew on the holiday Monday. Sounds like they are having more problems than just service.

Ooh Wholesale, always good for a laugh
 
Haha I know the manager at WSS nanaimo from when he worked at island outfitters. He sold me the very first firearm I bought with a PAL, which was an Enfield of course.

Thats where my 2 590's are coming from ,in his defence ,the Nanaimo manager had enough common sense to allow me to buy the 590's ,if I paid the extra shipping, Calgay did not want to. However that was 3 weeks ago and I called yesterday ,they screwed up and my shotties were still there. Supposedly they are NOW on the way to Calgary,,and then me!
Tuesday I had called Nanaimo wss and a guy Named M@$& rymes with bark, answered, he took my info and put me on hold to look for the guns,,,:mad:,,15 minutes later someone picked up the phone as if I had just called ,told him I was on hold for M###. M### comes on the Phone like I had just called! I told him he put me on hold for 15 mins,he didn't even remember what I had called for , said another customer interupted him,:bangHead:,Did say he checked out back and could not see them ,figured they were shipped. He then took my Phone # and said he would go directly to the Manager to find out for sure and call me back!!!! You can guess the rest! :popCorn::popCorn:, :popCorn: :popCorn: :popCorn:
 
OK, Calgary has my shotguns, finally! They needed a copy of my pal, and dr, licence, took a bit, but done!They are shipping TODAY! Is this fiasco finally coming to an end? At least it will be a happy ending,( not as good as the massage happy endings ,but will be great just the same) now for the blackhawk knoxx stock for one and who knows what else! Also will be looking for a 590 28" barrel and possibly a 24" rifled!
Cheers, pics when they arrive!
 
holy crap bobdbldr, how long has this whole thing been going on for you? Going off post dates, it seems like it's almost 6 weeks total... thats freaking ludicrous. please let us know when you actually receive them in hand! best of luck!

Will do , It has been a hassle to say it nicely but I wasn't gonna let them have the pleasure of me cancelling the order ,I got half an idea that's what they would have preferred. The sale items were on at a price thay only made them around $3. so shipping them woud be a loss, especially from Nanaimo!
I just wish they would have told me that at first along with the other guys here! I would have and finally did pay for the shipping from Nanaimo to Calgary and then the regular shipping from there to my home!
I'll let you all know when they arrive, with pics.
 
GOT MY MOSSY"S!!! FINALLY!!
Canada Post delivered them at around 130 pm. In great shape!
i opened 1-590, great little shotty looks mean. Wait till we get the blackwater knoxx rr on it.
Wifey wants to open the other 2, after all she gets to choose 1 for her birthday/easter present!
It took almost 8 weeks and hours on the phone and internet but I got them and shipping plus insurance for 3 shotties from Nanaimo/Calgary was just under $40. .Now to learn how to disassemble them so I can clean and lube these babies!
 
They just cancelled my order.

How do these bums stay in business, I was gonna cancel my order a few times but didn't, partly due to the great price and mostly cause it seemed to piss them off when I internet called or phoned them!;0) You got the feeling they wanted you to cancel so the could go back to smokin their crackpipes! :eek:nCrack .
I believe price is the only reason they stay in business. The mossbergs I got were even a good deal at their regular price.
I got to know Vivvian and Andrew quite well and I am sure they are having nightmares about my calls!:D .

Congrats, I've had mine for about a month now and love it, have probably put over 300 shells through it already. But definitely give it a good clean first, mine came with so much packing grease/thick oil that made the pump action very stiff. I cleaned it all out and lightly reoiled it and it made a huge difference, as well I noticed a lot of metal shavings and machining remnants.

Also a quick question for everyone else here who has used theirs now. I've had 2 failure to fire's with mine where it seemed there was a light primer strike. One time with a remington buck shot load, and the other a federal slug shell. After the failure I realized that my magazine tube cap was slightly loose, so I think the barrel might have not been seated perfectly tight. That being the question, what does everyone do here to make sure the magazine tube cap doesnt come loose? I don't want to put loctite or anything, and I'm not sure going anymore than hand tight is a good idea.

Also are buckshot/slug shells more susceptible to this problem? Do they have harder/stiffer primers? I just found it odd that I shot 100 target 7 1/2oz shells prior to both of these failures with no problems.

You got that right and they are sweet, glad you guys kept on me about keeping on them. How's the shootin going sewktbk? I am heading to T.O. for work tomorrow but should get to the range within the next 2 weeks! Gotta clean them up first and I think i will get the wife's geared up with the knoxx blackwater recoil reducing stock. That way it won't give her much of a smack and she can adjust it more to her size. She had quite a grin on when she first worked the action!
Anyone know who has inexpensive barrels for the 590? I was thinking of picking up a 28". NOBODY say w.s.s. I want it this year!
 
yup. it was a good feeling finally getting this. More because they made it pretty clear they didnt want to sell these to us and we put them through hell to make sure we got them.
 
When I received mine it was sliding around in the box like there was nothing securing it in place. And when I opened it up, there was nothing securing it in place. What a way to pack things, kinda made me wonder if Moore guns was doing the packaging and shipping for WSS.
