Cheap online Mossberg Dealer?
My dad is looking at Mossberg 500 in .410, Walmart has one for about $250. Anybody know if that price can be beat online? I know about the FFL fees... Got that taken care of....

They wholesale for $230, even with your Pelican discount I don't think I could put one in your hands for $250. The advantages of buying in quantity are considerable.

Even if you can get it for $30 less elsewhere, why hassle with the long distance purchase if you can walk up to a counter in a store right there? I wouldn't bother unless we are talking $100 or more.

Why would any adult male or female buy a .410? My daughters when they were teens and weighed maybe 90 lbs could handle my Mossberg 500 12 ga.

Tim, I am actually in the market for a .410 right now. I can't stand shooting 12 gauge for trap. MUCH more difficult to go 25-25 with .410.

My brother has a collection of 300+ longguns and 100+ pistols and he really enjoys shooting .410's in skeet/sporting clays and quail hunting for the personal challenge. On plantation quail hunts he even uses 2 1/2" shells with a vintage model 12 winchester to level the playing field.. On the range he uses a Kreghoff (sp?) o/u that he has with a matched set of barrels chambered in 12/20/28/.410 that is a sweet gun. Sometimes bumps up to 28 ga for sporting clays.

Jim I had found a break over for 100 even... He wants more than one shot and he's a man that wants what he wants....
Oh I had one of those Rossi's in 20/.22 That 20 would break your arm and the .22 wasn't that accurate..... |

My (11 year old) godson just bought himself a Mossberg 500 with his christmas money. I'm so proud of the little chipmunk!

Don't buy a Mossberg !
Savage 410/ 22LR Combo they are marginal quality as well, but more versatile.

Mossberg's are considered bottom end. However, they are also 100% fully functional. The only issue i have with them is that the pump action will bind up if you pump it too fast.
I had one in the Army, it was a perfectly useful weapon. I have been thinking about getting a 12gauge anyway, that $187 new price at Wal Mart just sold me. |

I know no one asked, but if anyone is ever in the market for a riot gun, i was absolutely in freakin-love with my Berreta 1201FP.
It utilizes the Benelli recoil operated action, but is made under license by Beretta. AWESOME weapon, and costs about 40% LESS than the famous Benelli it is patterned after. Last edited by m21sniper; 01-12-2010 at 08:43 AM.. |

Mossberg 500, Remington 870..... both function just fine. Thousands of each have served their owners with years of troublefree basic 12 ga pump shotgun service.
PS, I understand collectors and gun afficianados (and apparently trap/skeet guys) include .410 in their collections, I just find it odd when folks who want a basic home defense or varmint shotgun pick a .410 vs a 12 ga.
