Got me a 590

[Parabellus]

This nasty-looking boomstick is my latest acquisition. I decided the bump up from 20 to 12 gauge needed to be something more. More rounds in the tube was decisive. Recoil absorbing buttstock for my aging shoulder and large sights for my aging eyes make this a lucky find.

Congrats on your new Mossy. She's a beauty.

Nice, KISS shotgun. I like it!

It took a few years of shooting and collecting pistols then rifles before getting interested in shotguns.
Now I have two Mossbergs and a lot to learn and practice.
How can I determine what choke is screwed into this second hand shotty? I can see from light reflected through it that it is not a cylinder.
I have this other problem; it is a compulsion to replace the furniture with walnut or other attractive wood.
Thanks for the congrats.

This is one of the most common methods of IDing choke tubes here in 'Merica without unscrewing the tube. See the little marks at 7:30 on each one, between the wrench slots in the lower left?

Thanks for that. This choke has but two slots and no visible marks suggesting CL which I interpret as cylinder so I guess my eyes deceived me..

The deed is done. I got some old wood off Gun Broker.
Here is the new version of Crossbergs.
