Mossberg 500 Pump Action Accessories...

How's the ATI Standard Heatshield?

The local Dunhams has the ATI Standard Heatshield in stock. I was thinking I would get the Mossberg heatshield, but both Mossberg and MidwayUSA are out of stock. Does the ATI Standard Heatshield fit the 500 pretty good? Does it slide or move at all when shooting? Reviews on Amazon seem to be kind of mixed.

Re: How's the ATI Standard Heatshield?

We carry the deluxe version in our online store and have received positive feedback. We test most items that we sell and we had no issues on this. Being that the difference between the two is the sights I'm sure the standard version is just as good.

some thoughts...
Installation is very easy and straightforward. Just follow the instructions and do not over tighten that torx bolt that came with it.
Being a left hand shooter, activating the slide release lever is not a problem for me. All I have to do is move my index finger back a little to reach it...very easy and fast! I can see how this becomes an extra step with right hand shooters. I had someone try it and he had to take his thumb off the the grip to reach the lever with his right middle finger. He has normal sized hands and it might be possible for someone with gigantic hands to reach the lever with thumb, but then again you only have to do this once. Safety- no way around it, gotta take your hand off the grip to reach it.
Overall I am very pleased with this mod. It might not be for everyone but its definitely for me. Hopefully it holds up for a long time.

Re: How's the ATI Standard Heatshield?

Thanks guys. I went ahead and bought the heat shield from Dunhams. It was a bit of a PITA to install, and I scratched it some. That was more my fault than anything. Anywho, the shield looks great. It's a good way to finish off my 500.

 
Re: How's the ATI Standard Heatshield?

Thanks! I had an idea pop into my head. Is there a paint I can purchase that is a match for what is on the heat shield so I can touch up the scratches I made? I suppose it probably isn't a priority since it will probably get scratched again with use anyway. I'm just miffed I scratched it while it's still so new.
 
thanks fellas :)
so far I'm still having a blast with the Talon stock. I've gotten used to it and really comfortable with it now so no complaints here :D

thanks
you know that's a very good question because right now I'm kinda stuck and still on the fence about what I want to put on there or put anything at all since I don't really want to overdecorate the gun. :|

couple more pics (sorry if I'm posting too many pics of my shotgun :mrgreen: ):

,,,nice lookin' shotty.

no such thing as too many shotgun pics. :D
 
Absolutely no such thing as "too many shotgun pictures" lol

As far as a sight... I would not get a "reflex" style red dot. That is strictly based off of bias, personal preference to lower profile stuff. Bushnell and Aimpoint have a few "micro dots" that are excellent and work like a charm. The Relfex sets the sight plane up really high and I feel like even with a cheek riser you are stretching your neck. But you can always try something and return it later if you don't like it lol

I concur with Scrimo... Alot of times the sight plane gets really high. One thing you got going for you though is that AR style stock. I know the mesa stocks will get your cheek up a little higher, I would imagine the ATI one does the same. For the $$ a decent red dot cost, you could always get some Ghost rings installed if you wanted to. Those can also get tricky with sight plane heights but with the ATI stock I'd bet youd be line up perfect. BTW, the lowest sitting ghost rings I've use on a mossy were the OEM ones.

@ itsricmo- "Buy & return later..." Who does that... :shock::p
