Mossberg Tactical 22

[Erich.K]

I just finished playing with this over the weekend and i have to say it's a blast to shoot, now that being said I do have some question's That I'm hoping someone help me with.

When I was looking online at what people have done to their Mossberg's, I saw a couple that had shortened the handguard but no explanation on how to do this.

Also the 25 round magazines have a slight wobble when in the mag well they work fine I have already fired about 600 rnds or so through it and no problems yet, so I'm not sure if this is a gun defect or just bad luck for me.

Any help with this is greatly appreciated

I used a hand saw and dremel to cut off the handle and A2 front sight. As for shorting the hand guard, if you open up the guard, there are ribs that help hold the guard to the barrel. I guess you could cut the guard any where the is a rib. However there is only four screws/ two at each end. If you shortin the guard you'll need to make new holes and somehow bolt it tight.
Maybe others have used a metal hand guard from a real ar-15 but I don't know for sure. I don't know about the mag wobble. I do know I hate the mag release! I've also talen off the side rails. It feels much better to shoot now. Just fyi.

After cutting of the carrying handle is it still possible to mount the rail there?

Also could you post a pcture of you're's?

Thanks

Carefull, any bubbaing with a Mossberg, could greatly affect it's collectors value.

Maybe even negatively.

Mag wobble can be resolved by placing a short strip of soft velcro (the loops) on the part of the magazine that gets inserted into the magwell. Loop velcro with an adhesive backing is available all over the place.
