I was looking for either a Mossberg 500 with a 18.5" barrel in 12 gauge. I was leaning towards the 50411 BUT I couldn't find it any cheaper than $319 locally.

Today I bought a Mossberg 500 18.5" barrel and is Parkerized. Model is 50521. I don't see it on Mossberg's website though?????
I found it for $259! This is $60 cheaper than the 50411 AND has a parkerized finish which I believe usually is more money than the blued versions. I has a different forearm stock which imo looks nicer. It also appears to have a shorter shoulder stock is shorter and has a better recoil pad than the 50411 model which I thought was a plus.

So I do have a few questions.
1) Why is this model 50521 cheaper than the 50411?
2) Why isn't this listed on Mossberg's website?

Is the shotgun you bought new or used? If it's in the original box does the white label on the side of the box match all the specs you're quoting?

I don't find that model number anywhere. I also note that although you say you bought a model with an 18.5" barrel the statline you're providing says it's 18", I don't see an 18" barrel on Mossberg's site either.

This all said I'm no expert, I just happened to have purchased an M590A1 this past Wednesday :D:D

I didn't measure it but it is brand new but 18" would be illegal from what I understand so this has to be 18.5". The gun store just got them on Thursday. I don't think it is a new model though. Maybe old stock or something. Someone said online that it
seems to be a "Sports South distributor-only" model.

I know that certain distributors and large sporting goods stores sometimes have models that are a bit different made for their store.

Cheaperthandirt has them too.
