Mossberg 500 Super Bantam 20 Gauge, 22 Inch

Description

The Mossberg 500 Super Bantam is built specifically for younger or smaller-framed shooters who are working through their formative years with a shotgun. The design centers on a stock fitted with a 1-inch spacer system, which lets the length-of-pull grow with the shooter rather than forcing a premature transition to a full-size stock. That adjustability matters because a proper fit directly affects how consistently a shooter can mount the gun and manage the shot, and a stock that is too long is one of the more common reasons young shooters develop poor habits or flinch early. When the shooter grows, the spacer can be removed and a standard full-size 500 stock swapped in, so the platform continues to serve rather than becoming something to outgrow and replace.

The 20 gauge chambering keeps felt recoil at a manageable level for developing shooters without sacrificing genuine utility in the field. The pump action runs on a twin action bar design with dual extractors and a steel-to-steel lockup, which contributes to reliable feeding and extraction across a range of load types. The top-tang safety sits in a position that allows ambidextrous operation without any modification, a practical consideration for a gun that may be passed between a left- and right-handed shooter in the same household. The white bead front sight is a straightforward aiming reference well suited to the bird and small game work this gun is designed around, and the blued barrel finish offers a classic look with reasonable corrosion resistance for field use.
