Whats the purpose of these on the stock mossberg 500 series? Whats the advantages of having the bulk of that thing on the end of the barrel? Where can i get one :D
 
eye candy, to look tacti-cool. Beyond that your guess is as good as any. Might try McMillan tactical it's a copy of their very efficient 50 bmg break.
 
I did some research from when I first posted and a guy did some tests with it and found it actually reduced recoil and muffle blast, be interesting to try on a normal setup tactical

I could believe a reduction in felt recoil. I would question a reduction in volume of noise (blast).

My question is why sacrifice the elegance of balance and weight for a bit of recoil reduction. To quote one of the great trainers in the field of tactical scatterguns " 12 gauge does not kick, IF you correctly wrap your body around the gun." That from a 140 lb skinny man.

Good Luck & Be Safe
 
I can agree with that quote, BUT in a HD situation I may not be prepared as I would like, it would be nice to have a little less kick so i can move and get the next shot off..I cant seem to find a place to buy one, If they will sell it stock they should offer it for an accessory
 
Did you mean something like this?

If so, most muzzle breaks/porting actually increase the noise level and muzzle blast. Some may actually reduce recoil a bit, but on shotguns it's dubious at best.

That's an actual Mossberg cataloged on their site by the way.

Yea thats the exact model im referring to, but they dont sell that as an add-on?

If you look at it carefully, it appears the barrel flares out a bit right where it attaches. My guess is that it would have to be purchased as a complete barrel.
 
Yea I noticed that too, Ill have to ask the guys at the local shop for more details and maybe check it out. Thanks for the info
