Mossberg 500 Hunting All Purpose Field
The Mossberg 500 Hunting All Purpose Field pump-action shotgun stands as a testament to the brand’s legacy in setting industry standards for pump-action shotguns. Its efficient short cycling time allows for swift target acquisition, enabling quick transitions between targets. Moreover, its straightforward design not only enhances durability but also offers a cost-effective option.
Unquestionably, the Mossberg 500 stands as one of the most versatile shotgun platforms in the market, with over 12 million units sold. This popularity is attributed to its reliability and adaptability across various shooting applications – Hushpower even use it as a base for one of their models.
Key features of the standard pump-action model include dual extractors, steel-to-steel lockup, twin action bars, and an anti-jam elevator. The inclusion of an ambidextrous safety ensures accessibility for both right and left-handed shooters. Additionally, the shotgun is equipped with Accu-Set multi-chokes (except for the .410 model which has a fixed choke), providing flexibility in shot patterns to suit different hunting scenarios.
In terms of barrel lengths, the .410 model boasts a 24-inch barrel, the 20 bore offers a 26-inch barrel, and the 12 bore is equipped with a 28-inch barrel.
The Mossberg 500 Hunting All Purpose Field is available in three distinct models to cater to a wide range of preferences: the traditional wooden stock model, the robust synthetic stock model (both of which are available in reduced stock Bantam versions), and the timeless Classic variant (with a highly polished barrel and high gloss stock, in 12 bore only). This comprehensive selection ensures that hunters and shooters can opt for the model that best suits their individual style and requirements.
