Mossberg Shotgun Barrel Parts

Mossberg Shotgun Barrel Parts

When it's time to go hunting for the next trophy buck or participate in some clay shooting competitions, you'll need a shotgun for the job. You may be interested in replacing individual parts of your gun from time to time for cosmetic or functional reasons. When the time arrives to swap a few items, take a look at Mossberg shotgun barrel parts.

From the blued barrel of the weapon to the bolt action and trigger assemblies, you can pick and choose most of the parts you might need. You can easily change the performance or aesthetics of your gun whenever you need to, as the parts can often be replaced with a hand tool. In addition to the parts themselves, you can also find the smaller pieces which hold it all together, such as screws and base plates. Large kits are available, too. The Mossberg 500, 590, Maverick 88 12-gauge Tactical Shockwave Conversion Kit is an example.

In addition to the barrel, you'll find other parts of the Mossberg blued. You'll know the screws, bolts, plates, and bolt-actions are blued by the exterior of the item. The barrel, bore, or choke will show they have been through the process by a tinge of a blue or black appearance. The colors are subtle and often not detectable from a distance.

The line of barrels, bores, chokes, forends, and other items are available for several models, including but not limited to the Mossberg 500, 590, 835, and 870. This allows you to find the items you need for multiple weapons.

The Mossberg 500, 590, and other shotgun accessories are designed from several material types, including wood, blued steel, plastic, and aluminum. Each material has properties which add to the performance and view of the piece. These materials and features include:

• Steel: The barrels and cylinders are often made from steel.
• Aluminum: While not blued and featuring less weight than steel, aluminum provides pieces such as springs and magazines.
• Wood: The stock and forend for the Mossberg 500, 590, and other shotguns will be designed from wood.
• Plastic: Hardened plastic pieces such as base plates are critical to the functionality of the barrel and other heavier items. They won't add additional weight to your weapon but keep it all pulled together.
