One thing I find interesting other than how a firearm functions is the history behind a certain weapon. I'm making this thread for all the member to post up any cool history or facts behind the 590 platform such as agencies that have or currently use the 590 mossberg. Lets hear it!

I served. If we were at the end of a training shoot, we would do our best to burn through any left over ammo....sometimes that was as fast as you could fire it. All the barrels would be smoking!!
