Ray Ray 3,566 Posted August 25, 2012 Ummm, not to rain on your parade sir but Mossberg barrels are just as good. 590A1 baby, best shotgun barrel out there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
High Exposure 5,664 Posted August 25, 2012 Ray Ray, These are stock cylinder bore Mossberg barrels that have been reprofiled, back bored, and had the forcing cone extended. They are safe for slugs and shot. I have one for a Rem 870. With any ammo I feed it, it consistantly shoots a pattern at 25 yards that I can cover with the palm of my hand and 00 buck will leave a slug size hole under 10 yards. It makes all buck shot patterns tighter than Flight Control type rounds. The sale includes a barrel, stainless steel mag follower and a jumbo Mossberg safety. These barrels are simply amazing. Trust me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Ray 3,566 Posted August 25, 2012 Not sure if it's really needed. BUT, if you had the coin and wanted something top-tier than I guess so. Only issue I see is that these look like they would only work for standard 500's. Not 500 Persuaders or 590's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parker 213 Posted August 25, 2012 Ray Ray, These are stock cylinder bore Mossberg barrels that have been reprofiled, back bored, and had the forcing cone extended. They are safe for slugs and shot. These are standard Mossberg barrels professionally enhanced internally by Vang Comp. A good gunsmith who knows shotgun barrelwork can perform the same type of work if you want your personal barrel tuned for softer shooting and tighter patterns. Mossberg barrels are made in their Torreon, Mexico plant by Elamex. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RecessedFilter 222 Posted August 25, 2012 These barrels are top notch and Vang Comp is a great company. If I had the dough I'd get one but at the same time I don't need 5inch groups at 25yds with a shotgun lol. I can appreciate what they do though.

BullzeyeNJ 104 Posted August 28, 2012 My Mossberg 590A1 is a full custom job done by Hans Vang from Vang Comp. Its a great shotgun. It was also my first shotgun. The things he does to the barrel (porting, back boring, etc) do make a difference in how it shoots and performs. Thanks for the heads up on the special. I do not have a Mossy 500 sitting around but may buy a barrel for a future project. Its a great deal not to pass up. Thanks Again for sharing! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parker 213 Posted August 29, 2012 Ray-Ray, It is no coincidence that Mossberg's facility in Eagle Pass, TX is within a mile or so of the U.S./Mexico border. Many small parts for Mossberg's are built in the Torreon facility, then shipped to Eagle Pass for final assembly. The Torreon facility was opened in the late 80's. If you send a Mossberg barrel in for service, you ship them to the Eagle Pass location for refurbishment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BullzeyeNJ 104 Posted August 31, 2012 I just ordered one for a future project. FYI, the barrels being used are not brand new. The state of Cali seized a bunch of shotguns and destroyed the receivers. Vang Comp got the barrels for next to nothing. They are on special b/c of this. John, the guy who I spoke to, told me the barrels are in great shape but dont expect a brand new factory Mossy barrel. They took the used barrels and did their magic on them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Ray 3,566 Posted September 1, 2012 Too bad the barrels are for 500s only, not for 590A1s. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
