Lakefield Mossberg compatible with Mossberg 500 parts?

[Power Pill]

I'm looking at a Lakefield Mossberg and I wondering if they will accept standard Mossberg 500 parts...Barrels especially...

Anyone know?

Thanks!

Is the gun you are looking at a 500 or 400? Both have many common parts. Barrels are the most obvious. The criteria for interchangeability is that they are the same gauge, chamber length (99% are 3" chambered but some very early ones were 2 3/4" only, barrels still interchange but limit to 2 3/4" shells) Persuader barrels and other 500 models with long magazine tubes will not fit standard 500/400 models due to the location of the barrel support ring. Fore ends and fore end iron are a whole different issue. I don't have the time to type out all the possible scenarios when it comes to 400/500 series shotguns and fore end details.

The 400 and 500 for the most part are the same gun.

The only difference between a 400 and a 500 is the 400 has a single action arm and the 500 has a double action arm that was the change up . That's on the older version 500 the new ones may be different

The 3 400 models I've had have all had dual action arms

Yea and my lakefield 500 20g only has a single action arm.
