Where did you find the number?Not sure what to tell ya on this one. According to the charts MV258xxx is an older gun. Not saying it isen't new, it might be old stock. ????
I mean where is a reference to it? I did not see it listed in the list of numbers and dates. Lower than 258 looks like 1988? I thought you may have a more complete list than what is posted here. Maybe I should contact Joe at Mossberg. He has been helpful.You posted it!
I emailed Norma. I will let you know what she says.We have no list we go by other than what our members have posted. As members post their numbers we fill in the blanks.
If you contact Mossberg email
Martinez, Norma
martinezn@mossberg.com
She can give you the born date of your gun.
Keep us posted.
