They do go well together.

Allen Aguiar Thanks! And a 590 for $400 is an awesome deal, nice!

Yeah these Mossbergs are tanks. Interested to hear how you like the Magpul furniture on it. I've taken mine out a few times since putting them on and definitely feels like an upgrade to me.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Tim Kong its a combo of the castle but being on there pretty tight and not being able to get enough leverage with the Magpul tool (and the teeth eventually broke on me). A castle but wrench will give you a lot more leverage. You could try spraying WD-40 or some kind of penetration oil on the castle nut and let it soak for a bit before trying. Good luck and hope it works out.

Thanks! I borrowed an AR tool from a buddy. Was it easy once using that tool?

Tim Kong yeah it was way easier with the AR tool, but I’d still suggest soaking the castle nut in some WD-40 or something to help

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors Appreciate your advice--the AR tool worked like a charm!

Tim Kong nice! We’re constantly making new videos so subscribe and share if you don’t mind.

Donald Herbold sounds like an awesome setup. Good luck with the wait!

How is it, now that you have had it little bit?

Did you get it yet?🥳

It does. I don’t recall if it did that with the stock forend also or if it’s unique to the Magpul one.

Che, Capo thanks and yes it gives off enough light for a dark room.

I drilled a hole in the bottom and then screwed the swivel mount into it. I forget the bit size, but I did go smaller than the swivel so the threads on the swivel had more to anchor into.

Thanks man! How has it held up? Has it loosened at all?

@@n.papageorgio5135 I only had it on there for a few months and ended up removing it because I wanted a QD sling setup. I did a video on my current sling setup, which I’m way happier with. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nKyqdb1quLrGlH0.html

ATUMRE MOOR OUTDOORS awesome thanks!

Hey, I made a video on my flashlight setup for this build. Pretty happy with it so far. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oM2YeNujnZmlhZ8.htmlsi=4l1SyDrGdcEKyVib

What is the website?

The Magpul forend is pretty high on the barrel and there isn’t a ton of space between the forend and barrel. Might be a little tight trying to add a tri or quad rail.

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors thanks...deciding hardware whenever I get that gun..if I can ever get that gun.

@@facebookmakesmesick yeah it’s hard finding anything these days.

Thanks

And that screwdriver is freaking huge wtf hahaha

@@johnvu6560 haha yeah it is. Those screws are pretty deep in the stock, had to find that thing at an auto store.

You might want to reach out to Magpul. There is some clearance but not sure if it’s enough to clear a heat shield.

You got a chain saw for it? Hell yeah!

No I didn’t have a problem with the threads once I was able to actually get the castle nut loose. Did it actually screw on when you replaced it? I’d look into if the threads were damaged or not. Wouldn’t want that coming loose when operating the shotgun...

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors It definitely fastened. And so far i haven't noticed anything unusual. I test racked it PLENTY.

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors thank you for your feedback. I am trying to get a hold of Mossberg and see if I can have a replacement part sent to me. 🤞just in case. Thanks again

@@Hamrik_Oswald anytime and good luck with Mossberg.

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors hey bud, me again. So after taking a deep breath and taking a second look at my slide action tube/forend threading, it appears that the material that was peeling is some sort of factory finish. Maybe coagulated/hardened grease - definitely some form of filament that held the impression of the threading. I peeled it off an the threading was still there intact. It's making the OCD part of my brain fire like a mutha though. Not sure if I should brush the rest off or not.

Jason and Summer no it’s just the standard tube on the 590a1, which holds 8 shells (2.5 inch)

Tim Sanborn Haha yeah that screwdriver has one use in my house.

Actually on mine. a socket wrench with a long extension is needed

Nelson R good to know!

Mine has a flat slot built into a bolt head. I used a 1/2 in extended socket instead of the screw driver. Besides, no man should ever bitch about buying a useful tool. Those long drivers are great for replacing auto belts and such. Lil' bit of a "nancy boy" in this video. So much for "GRIT".

Would I need that screw driver for the mossberg 500?

I don’t think so since Magpul’s site specifically says 12 gauge, but you might want to check with them.

Glad you liked the video. Not sure if it will fit other shotguns since Magpul does also make one for the Remington 870. The Magpul forend has to fit to the barrel, magazine tube, castle nut, and slide action assembly.

Thanks for the info

Yeah my setup for the video was pretty bad when I shot this so I was all over the place. Might have to redo that part.

Were you able to get it off? An AR tool helped me out.

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors yes. I had to modify the forend by removing some material so it would allow the castle nut to grab.

@@2137Reap Good to hear you got it sorted out.

Super it is a polymer and it’s light but sturdy. It does make the front of the gun feel heavier with the light stock and heavy barrel, but nothing unmanageable or unbalanced. Yeah a heat shield would look awesome, but can’t get one to fit with the heavy barrel.

Yeah, it's a helium filled polymer

J. A. I’m actually working on a video that covers this and a few other weapon lights I have. Subscribe to the channel and you’ll get a notif when it’s up. The red cover is for low light and hog hunting since they can’t see red or green light.

The Grit Republic thanks man. I’ll sub for sure. Look forward to the video!

J. A. Finally got the new video up, sorry about the delay

If you need a video on how to "install" a light then please stay away from firearms - son.

@@cuttheknot4781 that's fairly mean as indont get the point, just because of terminology or whatever else, that is one lame comment just because some asked...smh

I did a video on my light setup for this which is not expensive. Elzetta light mount and Maglite XL50. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oM2YeNujnZmlhZ8.html

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors thank you sir

Elzetta amzn.to/3geCzll

Hugo Padilla it’s 12.5” with none of the spacers. Each spacer is 0.5” and it can go up to 14.5”.

@@devinbreeding5412 entire shotgun with magpul please my arms aren't that long

@@devinbreeding5412 ok cool thank u so much man I appreciate it

It’s an Elzetta light mount with a Maglite XL50. I made a vid on that setup kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oM2YeNujnZmlhZ8.html

Not sure. Looks like there are some folks online that have, but not sure if they had to do and mods to make it work. I would check with Magpul to be safe.

Wouldn't sawing off the screw driver and inserting it into a screw gun work?

@@jirimarek8089 There's just enough room for the short leg of an allen wrench, not enough depth, width or height for anything else. I was being a bit sarcastic, it's really not a big deal as long if you set it up that you aren't having to remove the stock when you want to clean the gun (ie: the need to remove the trigger assembly). Even that's not a big deal if you are cleaning on your bench. But if I drop my shotgun in the mud, or get some spruce needles in my receiver (hasn't happened yet but you never know) I'd like to be able to field strip it without the need to carry the allen wrench, hence I drilled out the bolt port. Worked like a charm. Cheers.

@@mark__whitfield thank you so much for detailed response !

That’s a good idea. Might end up doing that next time I break it down.

Don’t think so. Looking at the Magpul site it looks like it’s only for the 590/590a1 magpul.com/moem-lokforend-mossberg590-590a1.html?mp_global_color=118

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors Ya you're right. After a little more research I see I need the action slide tube from a 500 to make this work on an 88.

Mesa Tactical

It's a MagLite XL50.

Glad you think so!

Whoops, I made this video this video at the same time I made the 10/22 Magpul Backpacker video also on the channel. Thanks for catching this, I updated the title.

Ronald Patton this is an interesting topic. I’ve taken 2 tactical shotgun courses that had different approaches. The first had shells in from the bottom. All the trainers were civilians with NRA certification. It was easier to take the shells out, but there were a few people that fumbled shells. Also some shells would work their way out of carriers with aggressive handling. The second course was with active law enforcement some of which were ex-military. They had shells in from the top. Harder to manipulate, but no fumbling and shells did not work out of carriers. Both have pros and cons.

It's a matter of preference fool. Especially if you are a lefty - fool! Be quiet as you people piss me off.

Get a life couch commando. I am sick of your pathetic comments.

Frankie that was one of the first upgrades I bought for it, but the thickness of the A1 barrel prevented me from getting it on.

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors yeah, they make specific ones for the A1 but last I checked they were out of stock. Not sure a heat shield will work with that particular grip though?

Che, Capo Yeah don’t think a heat shield would work with the grip, plus I like the look and weight of my current setup.

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors right, I think it's too tall, if that makes sense. Nice setup. I particularly like the angle of the buttstock grip on these. Super comfortable.

Yet? As in it's needed? No one needs a heat shield son. If the military does not use them why would you

Thanks!

I have this one from Mesa Tactical www.mesatactical.com/products/sureshell-aluminum-carrier-for-moss-500-590a1-mav88-6-shell-12-ga.html

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors How do you like it, and are the rounds easy to remove?

@@Marz916 overall it’s solid. Keeps the rounds in place well and they are easy to remove. Only complaint is that the attachment screws strip way too easy. Mesa Tactical is great and they send replacements, but I’ve had to get replacements twice so far.

Thanks for the info. And the video.

Thank you! The 590A1 is a beast of a platform. Everything else is just icing.

They are ghost ring sights that came mounted on it when I bought it.

@@joseostorva7235 nice! Have you used it yet? Interested to hear how it is.

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors I haven't even fired a shot yet 😅 just got my 590A1 the Tuesday that past

@@joseostorva7235 gotcha, well have fun. It’s a great gun.

Fully agree that this is a big design flaw. Overall I'm still happy with the handling and aesthetics, but dread breaking it down for cleaning.

What part was skipped?

@@UnprofessionalOutdoors i was trying to see the action slide tube removed from the OG handguard.

Figured it out just bought a metal version of that bs plastic thing they give you, also apparently the 590M has the thicker walled barrel so I had to use the other anti rotating ring

One time I broke a nail using that screwdriver and it made me cry. Since then we haven’t been friends.

What was easy, removing the castle nut?

I think the camera work is just fine

Thanks! Some of the head-cam was a little shaky. Was trying out a GoPro with a new head rig.

I cut the best part to save it for later...
