Should read he is a FFL and not a store front.

If you were open to any available 500 or 590, they pretty much all swap out stocks for pistol grips. The only catch is you'll end up with a minimum 18.5" barrel and 6 to 9 round capacity vs 5. All my Mossbergs came with a pistol grip in the box.
You might want to throw a price out there that you are willing to pay to spark interest. Most people, myself included, bought these because it is a matter of time until they are banned. You might need to incentivize someone to sell.

Just to give you an idea what people are paying for a shockwave....I consigned mine at a local shop 2 weeks ago. It had a brace to go with it. They gave me $900.00 and sold it in about an hour. Cost me $300.00 last year Keep that in mind when people might want what you consider crazy money for one. Good luck finding what you want.

Wow. If I could get that kind of money I might consider selling mine.
If you want to offload it for some ammo I think we live in the same area...

I would have to get a really good price for it. It has never been fired. Has a side saddle and a scabbard for it. Would have to get an offer that I couldn’t turn down. I am in Lockport. It is 12 ga.
Shoot me a message I’m in lockport as well

Not to derail, butI don't get these loophole range toys so much. $900 for a shotgun whose oal is only 2" less than an 18.5" cruiser? My local shops are still selling mav 88s security for less than $300.
Good luck though. Last time they were at PSA I think they were $540. Might pay to sign up at several websites for alerts.

I’m not looking to pay $900 lol but if I can find a reasonable one out there...I’ll buy

Right...but the birds head is longer than a traditional pistol grip to.make the overall length 26" to make it a "firearm". A cruiser is 28" with a traditional pistol grip..............
OAL diff with Cruiser model is -4.6". Still a considerable difference.

Sorry for starting any issues posting this thread. Either the shockwave or 18.5 500s are great choices.

Honestly you did nothing wrong. The mods will probably clean this up. It's a free country and I hope you find a shockwave so you can enjoy it.
The majority of Cruiser models are 31". You found some that are 3" shorter. Great job.
If you dont want one dont get one. That was easy.
Not your fault. A certain member or three here will never admit they are wrong.

Agreed. It is clear as day that the majority of models are 31", as stated. In fact ALL Mossberg Cruiser's are longer than 28" with the only exception being the JIC model. The others are Maverick's which are not in fact Mossberg's, rather a cheap cousin. The rest is simple math.
You don't have to admit you were wrong, when if FACT you are right

That's because they have ridiculous muzzle brakes on them. Those models aren't actually that common ,or at least were not in years past.
Most people buy the 18.5" combo that comes with a stock and PG.
I think there used to be a very cool combo that came with an 28" barrel, 18.5 barrel, stock, and pistol grip. It was kind of a one gun option.
