I have a new model 51417 18.5” 590A1 on which a local gunsmith screwed up the barrel installing a set of Mossberg ghost rings - the front sight is canted and the barrel finish is very rough. I’m wondering if it will be more cost effective to just replace the barrel instead of finding another ‘smith to fix things since the epoxied front sight base would need to be removed, the barrel refinished and the front sight reinstalled properly.
I’m thinking a barrel off a 50774 would be ideal.
Are there sources for replacement barrels other than the factory, or should I just give Mossberg a call?
Thanks!
