Frequently Asked Questions
Mossberg 500 Tactical 8 Shot for sale
What is the difference between the Mossberg 500 and the 500 tactical?
The Mossberg 500 is the standard pump-action shotgun line produced since 1961. The 500 Tactical is a variant featuring a shorter barrel, pistol grip stock, and sometimes a heat shield or rail, optimized for close-quarters defensive use. Both use the same core action and are largely parts-compatible.
Is the Mossberg 500 tactical a good gun?
Whether it's "good" depends on your needs. Owners praise its reliability, ergonomics, and close-quarters handling for home defense. It's affordable, typically around $450, with proven pump-action durability. If you want a straightforward defensive shotgun without frills, most users find it solid.
What ammo is best for the Mossberg 500?
Your Mossberg 500's gauge determines compatibility: 12-gauge, 20-gauge, or .410. For defense, 00 buckshot in 2¾" shells works well. For general shooting, birdshot suits target practice and small game. Buckshot delivers more stopping power; birdshot produces less recoil. Match ammunition to your intended use and barrel length.
Is it okay to dry fire a Mossberg 500?
Dry firing a Mossberg 500 is debated among owners. Some sources warn against it, stating it can cause the magazine spring to lose tension and cause the gun to fail to fire. Storage practices vary, so consult Mossberg directly or store according to manufacturer guidelines.
