Frequently Asked Questions
Mossberg 930 28 for sale
Is the Mossberg 930 any good?
The Mossberg 930 is a reliable semi-auto 12 gauge that performs well for home defense, hunting, and waterfowl. It cycles standard loads consistently, though some users report issues with low-recoil ammunition. Prices range from $450 to $884, with a median around $628.
Which is better, 26 or 28 barrel?
Choice between 26 and 28 depends on your shooting style and build. The 26" barrel swings faster and carries easier through brush; the 28" offers better balance and smoother target tracking. Taller shooters typically prefer 28", while smaller-framed hunters favor 26". Velocity difference is minimal—about 14 fps.
How many rounds can a Mossberg 930 hold?
The Mossberg 930 holds 4+1 rounds in its standard configuration (4 in the magazine tube, 1 in the chamber). The 930 SPX holds 7 rounds in the tube via an extended magazine tube. Capacity can vary slightly depending on shell length.
Can you shoot slugs through a Mossberg 930?
Yes, the Mossberg 930 handles slugs reliably. Users report feeding full-power slug loads without malfunction. The rifled barrel Slugster model includes a cantilevered scope mount for improved accuracy. Some shooters note the gun cycles standard-pressure slugs more reliably than low-recoil loads.
What is the effective range of a 930?
Effective range depends on ammunition and barrel type. Buckshot patterns effectively to 40 yards; slugs from rifled barrels extend to 100 yards or more. Bird hunting typically occurs within 40 yards. Home defense distances are usually under 25 yards.
What is the barrel length of the Mossberg 930?
Mossberg 930 barrel lengths vary by model. Home defense versions typically have an 18.5-inch barrel, while hunting models come in 22, 24, 26, and 28-inch options. Check the specific model designation to confirm the barrel length for your intended use.
What are the common problems with the Mossberg 930?
Reported issues include failure to eject shells, feeding problems with 3-inch shells, and light firing pin strikes. SPX models specifically experienced canted sights and gas system venting problems. Mossberg addressed some mounting pin issues by offering replacement parts. Regular cleaning and proper ammunition selection reduce most of these problems.
Is Mossberg 930 still made?
The Mossberg 930 appears to be discontinued. Mossberg's website no longer lists the 930, showing only the newer 940 model. Three variants are still available across five retailers, typically priced around $628, but these are likely remaining stock rather than newly produced guns.
