Frequently Asked Questions
Mossberg 590 Mag Fed for sale

Can a Mossberg 590 use a magazine?

The standard Mossberg 590 uses a fixed tube magazine under the barrel. Mossberg introduced the 590M in 2018, which accepts detachable box magazines holding 5, 10, 15, or 20 rounds. The 590M is compatible with 2.75-inch shells only.

How much is the Mossberg 590 magazine?

Mossberg 590M detachable magazines typically cost $93.80–$133.00, depending on capacity (5 to 20 rounds). Note that 590M magazines are not compatible with standard 590 models. Prices vary by retailer, so check current listings for availability and exact pricing.

Is the Mossberg 590 a good shotgun?

The Mossberg 590 is a reliable pump-action shotgun well-suited for home defense, hunting, and competition. It features a sturdy receiver, dual action bars, and a reputation for durability with minimal maintenance. Prices typically start around $559, with several variants available from most firearms retailers.

Can I shoot slugs out of my Mossberg 590?

Yes, the Mossberg 590 handles slugs reliably. Rifled slugs work best in the smooth bore. Sabot slugs may tumble without rifling to spin-stabilize them. Avoid extra-full choke tubes due to dangerous constriction. Note that the bead sight is calibrated for shot patterns, so expect point-of-impact shifts with slugs.

How far can a Mossberg 590 shoot?

A 12-gauge shotgun like the Mossberg 590 shoots effectively to about 40–60 yards with buckshot or birdshot. Slugs extend range to 100+ yards, though accuracy improves with rifle sights. For home defense, practical range is typically 25 yards or less.

Which Mossberg 590 is best for home defense?

The standard 590 with an 18.5" barrel is generally the better home defense choice, offering a proper stock for accuracy and control. The 590 Shockwave's pistol-grip design sacrifices shootability for compactness. For higher capacity, the 590A1 holds up to 9 rounds. Prices range from $489–$636.

What is the difference between Mossberg 590RM and 590M?

The 590M uses detachable double-stack magazines and a traditional top-mounted tang safety. The 590RM is essentially the same but replaces that safety with a rotary selector switch. Both are pump-action 12-gauges accepting 5-, 10-, 15-, or 20-round magazines.
