Hi Lawrence and welcome. This model has a Drilled & Tapped Receiver. I recommend this Picatinny Rail : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/713085915/egw+scope+base+mossberg+500 -------------------------------- and Burris Fastfire Red Dot (or any red dot with picatinny mount that you choose) : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/714001147/burris+ar-f3+mnt+flatop+fastfire+mnt

Hi Lawrence, it does not have a rail. The receiver is drilled and tapped. Not sure why you would want to put a red dot on it, as it is not meant to be shouldered. It is actually meant to be fired from the hip. Crimson Trace makes a laser saddle for it https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/107805/crimson+trace+ls250+lasersaddle+red+laser+mossberg+shockwave+500+509+receiver+mounted+black+polymer , If you want to put a red dot, you will need a picatinny rail >>> https://monstrumtactical.com/side-mounted-shell-holder-with-picatinny-rail-mount-for-mossberg-500-590-shockwave-series-shotguns/ Stay safe & have a great day!
