hey CGN, just trying to find a mossberg 590a1 here in the gta.. Anyone happen to know of a place that has them in stock..

I already tried that sylvia place or whatever it`s called and they don`t do retail to civies. Just gunshops.

Any help would be appreciated.

Also an 870 police magnum would be good too
 
Just picked up a 51517 at WSS. The sucker rocks. You won't regret getting one. I don't know if there is one in the GTA or not.

I've always shot the Rem 870, but now I like the 590's safety MUCH better (easier to index with the thumb) and the slide release is behind the trigger guard instead of in front of it.

I always was bothered by having to shift my hand around so much to reach the 870 slide release... the one on the 590A1 is in a far better location. I can index it, rack the slide and carry on shooting with barely a finger movement.
 
just that you wont be able to parkerize it or blue it. any refinishing is a bit more complicated because youll have to match the steel parts/barrel to the aluminum receiver. also, coatings dont adhere as well to an aluminum surface as they do to a parkerized or bead blasted metal one.
 
theres all sortsof armchair expert theories regarding the durability of the aluminum vs steel receiver, but the bottom line is that none of its detractors have ever 'worn out' a 590 receiver or had one fail due to the properties of the aluminum.

my opinion is that unless youre dropping them off the tops of buildings or running over them with tanks, either gun will outlast you.
the 590A1 is a military-issued combat shotgun, so that should tell you theyre durable enough for civilian use.
 
Okay guys I just got back from epps with a 590a1 9 shot :) :) I called yesterday and was told they have no 590a1s at all, so I called today and was told they only had 2 six shot. So I went there this afternoon, and turns out they had a 590a1 9shot tucked away in the back... and now it`s mine; my new baby :) Great place ellwood is, extremly busy, but great helpful friendly staff. I definatly recomend them to anyone. Not sure nthat I like these ghost ring sights yet, but meh it`s my first shotgun. Again thanks for your help guys.

Got my 51517 today :p its HOTTTTTTTTT, i'm shooting it this weekend, can't wait

How about that though: I ordered the gun on Saturday through phone from MilArm. I picked it up today (tuesday)!! Thats fast shipping, thanks MilArm!
 
I had the 870 and now I rock the 590A1. There is no loading gate so speed loading is really easy. + the safety is well placed. I will not go back to the 870.
