Mossberg 590 Shockwave Laser Saddle 20 GA 50637

There's not much to say about the base platform, the 590's reputation precedes it. As far as the shockwave laser saddle configuration goes, it's a very light and nimble platform with a fair amount of accessory support. Mine is outfitted with the CDM MTRS-20 light/sling mount with the light to the right and the sling to the left. I also added the EGW Venom Optic mounting plate and a vortex venom to the top of the laser saddle. This required 1/2 8-40 gun screws to reach through the laser saddle and the 20ga shim. The Mesa Tactical 4 shell 20ga side saddle fits well with the laser saddle too. The Ergo tri-rail mlok forend that's made for the 12guage will fit with some modification, but it's definitely not designed for the 20ga.

The laser saddle itself is a fine piece of equipment with smooth adjustment mechanisms and a low profile. You won't really notice it. It's also pretty fun to practice aiming from the hip using the laser.

The smaller magazine cap on the 20ga allowed me to affix the mossberg 12ga heatshield blued finish, but I don't expect it to stay put under heavy shooting since there's no way to use the mossberg spacer that's included.

All to say, this one is fun even without ammo, all the more when you can take it to the range.

Buying some accessories for it. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet.

Great for home defense. Overall size lends itself to handling in tight quarters. The laser saddle is a must for me and its intended use. 20 gauge recoil is very manageable in this configuration.
