So I picked up a Mav 88 home security at dicks last night. Figured I'd rather spend the extra $20 than wait in line on Black Friday. Been wanting a 12ga for a while only shotty I have is a 16ga that was handed down to me, so I'm still new to shotguns in general.

 

Anyone else have one of these and want to chime in on what you did to yours? I'd like to add a few things like a shell carrier and pistol grip with stock. Also anyone know if you can shoot a rifled slug out of this thing?

I dont own one. But if I remember correctly they are pretty much a Mossberg 500. That being said shell carrier companies are out there and they range from 30-100bucks if not more. Furniture should also work. So a speed stock that holds 4 shells maybe a cool idea. Congrats on ur new purchase

Nice buy, the only reason why im waiting for blk fri on this is because im going to buy a hand full of guns; otherwise i would have done the same thing. Which dicks did you go to? I was thinking about trying the one in princeton because it's closest to me.

I had mine for 2 years, Just sold it to fund something else, But It never gave me any issues and always went bang. Whats nice about it is that most of the aftermarket parts for the Mossberg 500 will fit on the Maverick 88. Great shotgun for a great price.

I also prefer the position of the safety on the mav compared to the moss

Good trainer shotgun, or for the range and stuff.

I have an 88. They're a bit rough in terms of fit and finish but they go bang every time. I have an elastic shell holder on the buttstock. Yes, you can shoot rifled/Foster slugs.
