Great Shotgun,
May 12, 2013
I just got this shot gun. Took it out to the shooting range to test it out. Its got a good kick but it felt the same with all the diffrent types of shells. Personally i liked the hollow tip slugs. The only recommendation i could make is the postal grip other than that its a great shotgun to carry around or for house protection .

I bought this for the farm to use on snakes origanaly but carry this thing where ever i go now. I did find that federal paper shell kick the least but i even shot a quite a few military grade buckshot out of it and the kick is fine, but then again I'm a man.

How To Lessen 12 Gauge Kick!,
April 26, 2011
People Have Been Using Watertight Tubes (Military Surplus) For Many Years, I"m Not Knocking Their
Shotgun Have Heard Nothing But Good About It, But As I Said Above' "The Idea Is Not New" As For The
Kick Of The 12 Gauge, I Have A Few Suggestions,#1 Is You Can Buy Less Powerful Shells IE: Low Brass, Another Idea Is Let Mossberg Know That More Dimunitive People Can't Handle The Recoil And Suggest They Make Them In 20 Gaugh As Well As 410 And Then Watch The Sales Go Thru The Roof As They Will Have Opened Their Market To Many More, And Last But Not Least Is An Easy Sollution To Those That Already Have One Of These Mossberge JIC Packages And That Is Buy A Box Of Aguila Brand 2 Inch Shells, They Function In A Few Pump Shotguns That I Have Tried But "To Be Sure" That You Can Count On The 2 Inch Shell Working Flawlessly As Your Life May Depend On It (You Should Have A Pro. Gunsmith Adjust The Feeding Mechanism)It Is Only A Minor Job As The Few I Tried These 2 Inch In Worked Fairly Well! P.S. Unless Your Are Hunting Ducks Or Geese You Do Not Need A 12 Gauge, Even Law Enforcement Could Use 20 And Even The 410 Which Would Be Safer, However People Still Buy 10 Gauge With 3 Inch Chambers, Some People Think Bigger Is Better, But To Me Why Use A 10 Pound Sledge Hammer When A 3 Pound Hammer Will Do?

Perfect Trunk Kit,
December 13, 2010
I just purchased this kit for my car. In the state I live in, we are allowed to carry shotguns in the trunk so as long as the ammo is not within reach. I carry the ammo in the center console. I hike a lot in the back woods and come across all kinds of animals and not so nice folk. This kit is perfect for handling any situations I come across.

Great for disaster aftermath,
November 22, 2010
After Hurricane Katrina, I learned really quick how important it was to have an emergency kit stowed somewhere the looters wouldn't think to look. I purchased this to bury in the yard for safe keeping in case of another major disaster. I tested it out first by buring just the tube with a few non-essential items for 3 months and I have to say I was impressed. Everything inside stayed just as it was when I buried them. That's saying alot since the humidity seems to penetrate everything here on the gulf coast. The shotgun goes without saying, its a Mossberg so we already know it's a quality firearm. Yes, it's a little harsh on the wrist without a stock but hey, it's better then being caught without one. I will most likely be purchasing another one of these.

Mossberg "JIC" 500 12gauge shotgun,
November 15, 2010
I bought this package because I had been wanting a compact 12 gauge for camping and home protection. I found that I dislike firing this gun with the pistol grip(hurts after a few) so I added a folding stock to it. The only problem now is that with this set up I cannot fit the thing into the tube. The folding stock and different angle of the new grip won't let it get all the way in. So i gues I need to find another option or change the grip/stock if i need to use the tube. Other than that, the shotgun is great. I have blasted many rounds of birdshot thru it and several slugs and buckshots. Lets just hope I never have to use it as it was intended. I got a great deal on this gun, if you shop around you will may find a deal as well.
