Recoil can be noticeable with heavy loads and the trigger runs heavy, but the design is proven and widely available in 12 variants.
What is included in a Mossberg 500 combo?
Mossberg 500 combo packages typically include two barrels—one smoothbore for bird hunting and one rifled or slug barrel for deer—plus the pump-action receiver and magazine tube. Sights vary by configuration. Check individual listings, as specific contents differ by variant.
What is the price of the Mossberg 500 20 gauge?

Why does my Mossberg 500 only hold 3 rounds?
Your Mossberg 500 likely has a wooden dowel plug in the magazine tube limiting it to 2 shells plus 1 in the chamber, satisfying hunting regulations. Remove the barrel, point the gun downward, and shake out the plug. Standard capacity is five 2¾" shells in the magazine plus one in the chamber.
What's the best ammo for a Mossberg 500?
Your Mossberg 500 accepts 2¾" and 3" 12-gauge shells. Use birdshot for upland game and clays, #4 or 00 buckshot for deer or home defense, and slugs for longer-range accuracy. Match your load to your intended use and always verify your barrel is rated for your chosen ammunition.
