Yeah I did get the 4.25 one and it stuck out just a bit past the barrel which was unexpected. So the 4 1/8 would have been flush. It doesn't really add that much to the barrel, I guess 1/8th so it's not a big deal. When I am loading the shells the 7th one is pretty tight so it is probably best I...
Buff I had the small little wrench in the box, be careful it's slim and easy to miss it. It didn't come with any other chokes, but Mossberg does sell them.
yeah that is what I hear, that is why I went with scabbard. I do know that sometimes having a sling to go to sidearm is important in self defense. I am hoping that the 590a1 with 8 shots clears the house lol
I will say that the shotgun scabbard will not support the flashlight mounted or the ammo card. It's not a big deal as they are both very easy to mount.
Thank you much appreciated. It's a very good forum. I posted the pictures on Facebook and my friend of 40 years said "Nice shotgun for a Mossberg. Did it come in pink? " I replied I was going to go with the 870, but I didn't want a gun made in China. He laughed. He is an 870 guy from working...
Thanks I appreciate it, I really didn't know the best way to put the shells in the card. I thought maybe upside down brass on bottom might make sense so I could load quickly with non dominant hand (left). What do you think? It was definitely a lot of fun building it, and just awesome shooting it!
I have building a Mossberg 590a1 18.5" with ghost ring sights for close to a month now. This is the first shotgun I have ever owned, and honestly the first time firing a shotgun. I own a Glock 19 gen 4 and have put range time in with it.

I should have went with the old measuring tape and got 4 1/8 lol it was fun, it is 1/8 longer. To be honest that 7th round was tight. Will take the longer and 7 plus 1. I am not going to complain. It would have been very tight even lacking that 1/8 so I am happy with it.
OH man I am glad I caught you, I was just doing edit on my post. I was using an old measuring tape, someone in another thread pointed out he has the same model we do and the stock 4.25 Choate extension is the one you want. It costs an extra 20 dollars to do a custom one.
This is the one you...
Damn I feel like an idiot, I used a different brand new measuring tape and got 4.25 exactly. I need to call them asap as it was going to take awhile to make the custom one for me. Thanks for the head up.
That is strange, I was asked by Choate to measure it from point a on that picture and when I measured it at 4.25 it was sitting a little past the barrel. I wonder if I am doing something wrong. That is the 590a1 7 shot model that came with the tri-rail forend originally?
Just received my WMLx gen 2 rail attached light in the mail. It was very easy to mount. It is 800 lumens and in such a good position to hit light on and off, and it has quite a few options as far as use of the light. I love it. Very form fitting.
I want to thank a fellow forum member for...
