Depends on the end cap and length of the mag,It will fit the reciver as they both use the 500 .
As far as I know only the 835 barrel will fit the 590 and that's based on same mag capacity.
There is some difference on the front locking mechanism between 500 & 590 unless you swap the magazine as well otherwise it will not work.
Found it:
The primary difference between the Model 500 and Model 590 is in magazine tube design. The Model 500 magazines are closed at the muzzle end, and the barrel is held in place by bolting into a threaded hole at the end of the magazine tube. Model 590 magazines are open at the end, and the barrels fit around the magazine tube and are held on by a nut at the end. The Model 500 magazine facilitates easy barrel changes, as the barrel bolt serves no function other than holding the barrel in place. The Model 590 magazine facilitates easy cleaning, as removing the nut allows removal of the magazine spring and follower.
