Mossberg 590 Shockwave 20 Gauge Pump Action Shotgun

Description

The 590 Shockwave is built for shooters who want a compact, hard-use 20-gauge pump that handles tight spaces without the bulk of a full-length shotgun. The bird’s head Raptor grip changes the geometry of how recoil travels into your hand — rather than driving straight back into a shoulder stock, the angled grip redirects the impulse downward, which makes repeated firing more manageable from this platform. It is not a target gun; it rewards deliberate, controlled technique and suits home defense, truck carry, or anywhere a short profile matters.

Mossberg’s 590 action runs on twin action bars, which eliminate the binding that a single-bar design can develop under stress or when the gun is canted. The anti-jam elevator and positive steel-to-steel lockup are standard across the 590 line, and the dual extractors give the action two points of purchase on the case head — useful if you are running a variety of shell lengths or if a hull is reluctant to eject. The ambidextrous tang safety sits exactly where the thumb lands naturally, and it works equally well from either side without any modification. A corn-cob forend with a retention strap keeps the support hand well back toward the receiver and away from the muzzle, which matters given the short barrel. The front bead sight is minimal by design — at the distances this gun is intended for, a simple bead is a fast, unobstructed reference point. The blued receiver and matte blued barrel give the gun a consistent, traditional finish rather than a mixed appearance. The clean-out magazine tube cap simplifies field maintenance.
