Who had the 590a1 14" barrel kits?

Now you need to find a Meprolight Mossberg Ghost Ring Front Night Sight to finish it off .

14" Mossberg barrel just back from TacOrd. They silver soldered on a Mossberg front sight base,
Vang-Comped the barrel & Cerakoted it. Very nice work, thanks Casey & crew!

Can't wait to see the finished product. How much does a Vang-comp job cost?

With these kits flying around... does anyone have a spare full length synthetic 590A1 forend laying around? How about a factory buttstock?

-LOL, that is the sight base I got off you as part of the GRS kit, thanks again. A few more parts to acquire then I'll post some pics.
-The Vang Comp system was $255. from TacOrd.
-20" 590A1 bbl kit coming to an EE near you this spring!

I just wonder, will it look as big as a tombstone when I sight down a 14" bbl?
I'd prefer a thinner "National Match" style sight, but with the Meprolight low-light visibility.

Is your rear sight is a Mossberg factory one ?

Yes, factory GRS. I figure I might even have to "thin" the front sight.

I have GRS on a 20' and a 18.5" , and as you can see on the 18.5" they're mount back somewhat , maybe 3" ahead of where they might be on your 14" barrel , and to be honest , To me they don't look any bigger sighting down them on my 18.5" then on the 20" , but , as always , YMMV.
Obligatory crappy cell phone pictures.

Thanks...good to know!

OK, here is a shot of the 14 incher I've been assembling on a 590A1 receiver.
Thanks to: TacOrd for the Vang-Comp & installing the front sight post, awesomeo for the bbl kit, BeaverMeat for the GRS kit.
I recall that Claven2 was selling a similar stock he called a "Miami Vice" stock, I think I'll refer to this as my Miami Vice shotgun.

Now... where are all the take-off barrels at???

I believe the kit comes with everything you need to change your Mossy into a 14" shorty. There are 2 sizes of action bars and forends for Mossbergs and this is the shorter one.

Considering I paid $599 for the entire factory 590A1 14" unit, I'd say $475 for the barrel kit might be a little steep... however, doubt we'll see another shorty 590A1 shipment anytime soon.

Yes, As I was dumb and sold my original 14 inch that I got from Bullseye sports. So I did buy one of those kits from CSC. Worked fine for me. I installed the kit on a 20 inch 590A1 that I had, it was originally wood furniture and said US service model on it. I took the wood off, installed the new kit from CSC and bobs your uncle.

Still got the 20 inch 590A1 barrel with heat shield too.
