Definitely interested in this! Please keep us posted North Sylva! I already have my money in my hands haha!
Just got off the phone with Dan at CSC.
Apparently it's just the barrel, no magtube. No forend. 150$ ish.
He doesn't know if it's heavy barrel or not.
Either way, without the shorter forend assembly and tube you're hooped for an A1.
That's contrary to what the importer and one stocking dealer are claiming. I think your guy has mistakenly misled you. Unless of course he's saying spare barrels are available for that price point, which in that case I'm interested in one. I'd like to have a second barrel for the shotgun I already own.
The barrel is definitely the A1 heavy barrel. To the best of my knowledge, Mossberg only has (1) 14" barrel option and it's the A1. If you look at the muzzle of the pic shown in the first post, you can see the thickness of the barrel.
I'm hoping other dealers will have more competitive pricing on the kit.

Yes I think there is some confusion as CSC stated it was just the barrel.
The OP's offering seems to read and show 14" heavy barrel and mag tube. This would still require the shorter forend and forend tube to work.
If it's a full kit with forend I suspect they left that out by mistake.
Not really sure what CSC meant on the phone, but I'm sure everything will be clarified in the hours/days to come.
Good news! It's the full kit.
Little pricey but at least there's an option for Mossberg owners to own another SBS.

Thanks for the info here Dexter!
I think if I could get just the barrel, the chop saw and tig welder might be all I need to modify my old lowly Maverick 88.

That's what I think too.
Just give me the barrel cheap.
I can modify/fabricate the rest pretty easily.
The thread size in the end of a Mossberg 500 or Maverick 88 mag-tube is 7/16"-20.
I can easily make an end-cap on the lathe that will accommodate the barrel ring of the 14" barrel, even with the offset.
If you install the Shockwave Raptor grip; You are just over the 26" minimum non-restricted length.
A normal pistol grip will put you into the restricted category.
Could you tell me who sells the raptor grip in Canada, I can't seem to find any dealer, and shockwave technologies stated that it does not ship out of USA.
I would like to get one for my rem 870 with 14" barrel.
Thanks
Sounds like the Remington 870 14" barrels at the CSC which are $180. The Mossberg 590 ones are $475 at CSC.
The Mossberg ones are more because they come with the correct-length magazine tube and possibly some other things (hand-guard?)... I'd have to check with them again.
Edit: The Mossberg 590 ones at CSC include barrel, mag tube, spring, and hand-guard.

This , but for the 590 .
Though I prefer the 590 to the 500, you could have a very inexpensive SBS by going the 500 route. In terms of volume, I think it would be more popular.

if mossberg (or??) produced a (15"?) barrel for the 500 that was flush to the standard tube mag
(like their 20" barrel fits on the 7-8 shot) it would be a HUGE seller!!! most likely COULDN"T KEEP THEM IN STOCK
What goes on in the states IS a factor,
but come on...this is OBVIOUSLY a good idea
JUST SHORTEN THE 18.5" BARREL TO 15"ish ALREADY

Yes it does.
Unlikely. As you have said these barrel kits are next to impossible to obtain. It's highly unlikely there will be any more leaving the United States.
