First time I have used Buds and my thoughts.....? Positive straight down the board! The item shipped extremely fast and the gun came in pristine condition. I've haven't gotten the opportunity to get out to the range yet, but the gun has a very sturdy feel to it and the action is incredibly smooth straight out the box. There were no dings or nicks and the bead arrived correctly aligned and intact. There's not too much needed to be said about a 590A1. The track record speaks for itself. It's a great, reliable gun and I'm more than satisfied with Buds' service. I will be using them to purchase again in the future! If you were hesitating to do so... I suggest you lay your fears to rest and go ahead. Great selection, great price, great service!

Placed my order, gun arrived at FFL dealer 11 days later. Transaction couldn't have been smoother. Unfortunately, my "instant check" came back DELAYED, so I'll have to wait another 3 days before I can take her home. I'm told this is typical, something to do with a new computerized system on the Fed's end.

So I can't give any functional reports yet, but I'll update as soon as possible. Here's my out-of-box impression:

Bud's price for this gun was fantastic - nobody else even came close (or had it available, for that matter). So, I was somewhat concerned about what may actually be in the box. Factory second? Refurb? Blem? Not this time - the gun was exactly as advertised, brand new, without any dings, scratches, or fitment issues. Just a little spotty on the receiver, nothing that won't wipe away.

Beautiful shotgun, the picture doesn't do it justice. No "black gun" wannabe here, just a sturdy conventional shotty with a longer mag tube. I expected it to a bit muzzle-heavy from the reviews, but unloaded I found the balance and overall weight just fine. I'm sure that will change with a full mag, but I don't expect to have any problems adjusting. Snapped it up to my cheek, and it felt like the buttstock was customized just for me. Now that I've seen just how easy it points, I wish I had opted for the ghost-ring. Oh well, the barrel changes out easily. This will be a mutli-purpose weapon.

For a new gun, the action was surprisingly smooth and precise. As I racked it a few times, everyone in the store was paying attention. Yup. I can't wait to cycle a few boxes through it. The tang safety (with these stocks) is a godsend, and the slide release is exactly where you want it to be - for a right-handed shooter, at least. Ergonomically, this gun fits my 5' 10" frame like a glove. Well done, Mossy!

I expect to fire this jewel a lot, and pass down to family when I'm done. At this price, I'd say this is one of the best values currently on the market. You won't be disappointed with this gun - or with Bud's.

After about 10 rounds the gun wouldn't eject a shell from the tube-mag. I sent it back to Mossberg thru my FFL dealer and picked it up about a month later. It may have been back earlier, but I don't know because I didn't ask or check until about a month later. I came came clean as a whistle and in working condition. Very nice shotgun. As for Bud's service, I am happy with their service, This being my second purchase from them. I'm sure I will be buying from them again.

The shotgun was amazing! A lot sexier than I thought it was going to be. I never got the chance to see the gun before I bought one. So when mine came that was the first time I've held/seen one. All of the reviews I've read said the only downside to the gun was there was a long length of pull, which is not true at all, I'm only 5' 10" and the gun was no different than any other shotgun I've ever held. Another up side is the gun was A LOT shorter than I expected, it's literally the perfect tactical gun. Shots great. The safety is in the best most convenient stop imaginable. But the gun is very loud for some reason, louder that every shot gun that was at the range. But when I got the gun, the safety was stuck in the firing position. Finally after a couple of days of soaking it in oil, the saftey loosened up and started working. Also all of the screws on the receiver were stripped. I never would have taken the gun if I saw that, but I would have regretted not taking it afterwards. Overall a great gun. Not happy at all with budd's service. Took a week to process the debit card that I paid for the gun with, even though they took the money out a day after I bought the gun. Took 2 weeks from the time I ordered the gun till I received it.

This shotgun is great.Very versatile i use it to shoot slugs,buckshot, field loads, and it has even had a few specialty loads through it. Great for hunting, trap shooting, and especially home defense. It is a bit heavy but, in my mind that's a good thing because its built like the main cannon on an abrams tank. Put some 3" slugs in and you'll even begin to think thats what your shooting!
