I didn't take the survey. Couldn't find the button for Mossberg.

I'll have no problem using the shotgun like a baseball bat.

Mark, I love it... a bat is my go to, I got guns if I need em'.....but I never thought of using my gun as a bat! O the possibilities.

the 18.5" with a 2rd extention will hold a total of 7+1 rounds the 20" with a 3 rd extention will hold 8+1 rds in my calculator thats a 12.5% increase in ammo. HOW ON EARTH do you get 60%

I was going with a 5 round cap in the tube at my datum.

I had a 20" 590, and switched to an 18.5" 590 A1. 1.5" may not sound like much, but it changes the feel dramatically. Even with the heavier barrel of the A1, it just feels... "livelier" if that makes any sense. I added an S&J Hardware +2 extension and Im probably back up to the weight of the 20" but it is still much quicker around corners, especially with a short LOP stock.

Mossberg 590.. +1

I own two 590A1s. One is a 20" barrel and hold 8 + 1. The other is a 18.5" so it is 5 + 1. I bought a +1 magazine extension from Choate Machine & Tool. It comes with a new spring and a neon-red follower. I'm using the.new follower so I can only put 5+1 in the magazine tube and 1 in the chamber.

This is picture of my first 590A1:

I have a 870 that I use for hunting. What I found was the 18" barrel from Midway that has the rem choke option. The barrel is 18" but comes with the breaching choke tube in it which allows for the 3 round mag extension. I do have to agree that the front end of the gun feels heavy but I contribute that to the fact that the synthetic stocks are cheap and thin.
