This shotgun is a beast! Heavy duty and high quality Mossberg firearm.

Great shotgun. Well made and the number one of the Marines for a reason. Waited for a year to find one. Finally Buds came through. It’s insane how much the price has went up on these. Get one while you can. Great home defense gun.

Got this today and I fell in love more by just holding it. Haven't took it to the range yet but I know it'll work reliably and flawlessly( it's a Mossberg). This thing is built like a tank, tough and overbuilt. took me 2 years to find a 590A1 and buds finally had it. Shipped very fast and smooth process to buy from buds. Customer service is kind and very helpful no matter what your concern is. Highly recommend buying this tough shotgun. It'll outlast you how good it's built!

I love this shotgun! It's similar to the shotgun I was issued when I first started out as a police officer. Several years later we switched to M-4s. I have a lot of confidence in it as a home defense gun. Plus it takes bayonets!

I ordered the gun Sunday evening, and it was in my hands on Wednesday. The shotgun was in beautiful shape. No blemishes, and no rough spots. This will be my home defense weapon, and I am very happy with the transaction. Alex - St. Louis

This is the biggest piece of junk I have ever seen. It is supposed to be brand new and it won't even cycle. The action is jammed. I will never buy a Mossberg again. Buds was great as always. Product is terrible. Unfortunately I can't send it back. Don't buy this. Buy the Remington instead.

590a1 as good as it gets. kinda wish they made a heatsheild to fit it, but just a reason to put a mesa rail on it

Great Gun, it's 9 rounds of authority on your shoulder. As others have said, LOP is kinda long... I love the speedfeed, but I might have to put a houge on it, it's cumbersome. Its a lot beefier than my 500a , the heavy barrel and metal trigger group are worth it. I put 500 slugs, double aught & target loads through it last month in a class without a hiccup. Im a prior service Marine and I own ar's and ak's but when things go bump in the night, this is what I pull out of my safe. If you need a rock solid dependable HD gun that you can trust your life to, look no further.

Purchased this 590A1 on Dec. 31st came in on Jan 10th went to FFl to pickup. I inspected it performed a basic function check.It seemed OK. I brought it home and put it in the safe. Took it out today to check it out. I loaded the tube with 8 rounds of Winchester PDX1 shells. I cycled the action to chamber a shell . No problem shell came out the tube onto the elevator then right in the chamber. Cycled again to elect and load another shell an the shell from the chamber did NOT eject. The bolt came back and shell did not eject. another shell came out the tube onto the elevator just like it was supposed to but with the shell stuck on the bolt it had nowhere to go. So I work the shell on the elevator back in the tube and cycled to try to get the shell to extract and same thing ( and I did not show it any love when I cycled it) . So I worked the shell on the elevator back in the tube and brought the fore end forward so I could unload the tube manually. After unloading the tube I cycled the action pretty hard(way harder than should be necessary to eject a shell) It took three times before the shell would eject. The lip of the shell is dented where I believe the extractor is hitting it. I tried again leaving that shell out entirely and same exact thing. I tried with some bird shot and same thing. It is damaging the shells where the extractor is hitting them. I tried four different times with good shells and same thing. This is NEW and NEVER shot. Now I am STUCK with a non-working shotgun.I will have to call Mossberg tomorrow and probably get the runaround . They will probably want to "FIX" this one. I would rather exchange it for a NEW one. But any way I will still have to ship it back and wait for god knows how long for something that should be working NEW OUT THE BOX..

As for the gun, It shot beautiful today. I put 50 rounds of Slugs and OO buck. The ghost ring sights are great. The speedfeed stock and add the 'sidesaddle' and the firearm is ready! Great service from BUD's

Ran two boxes of target loads though my Mossberg today, functioned flawlessly. Not sure if my shoulder will function flawlessly in the morning but great time with this piece today. Action is a bit stiff but will loosen up with use. Looking for a sling and flashlight to make this one complete.

Used layway for this bad boy. Paid off last Friday 12/30, holiday weekend, shipped Wednesday and in my hand 1/6. Packaged perfectly, no issues once again, great job by Buds. Saw this same piece at the local gun show last weekend for $100 more. The shotgun itself is a brute. Action is a bit stiff but will work itself out. Will be shooting this tomrorw since it is 60 degrees in January, yeah global warming. Will write another report when I return.

I meant to say that they put the safety where it belongs.....not on the trigger guard.

IMO, this model is the very best value on the market for a "self defense" shotgun. The finish seems good (parkerized), the sights are great and having the metal trigger group, safety and heavy barrel are really worth the extra money. The only thing I would say is somewhat of a problem for me is the LOP. I'm 6', 190 lbs and it's about an inch or two too long. I'm going to leave it alone because I really like the Speedfeed stock, but you may want to handle one first. My FFL who is about 6' 3" said he couldn't deal with it being that long. Also, they put the trigger where it belongs, something Remington doesn't understand. Great firearm.

This is a beautiful weapon, I'm thrilled with my purchase. The gun is rock solid, feels like you could put it to ultra-rugged use and not be at all concerned about it suffering any damage. Ghost ring sights are intuitive to use, and should make shooting accurately easier than it would be with a bead sight. The ability to store 4 additional rounds in the stock is great, I much prefer that to mounting a bulky shell holder on the side of the receiver. The only downside is that the length of pull is a bit long for me, so engaging it into my shoulder is a bit awkward. Should be okay once I've trained with the gun and become more familiar with it. I don't know if there is anything better than the sight and sound of an all-black pump action shotgun like this one! With proper care, this gun should be so durable and reliable that my great-grandsons will enjoy it!

I was looking for a solid pump similar in design to my Win 1300 Defender and my Mossberg 930 SPX, as in a shorter barrel w/FULL MAG TUBE! I have never liked the setup on the Rem 870's, ESPECIALLY having experienced the 1300 setup! The Mossberg has the bolt release in the same spot as 1300, and after the 930 SPX I've really grown to love the Ambi-Tang mounted safety, and this model COMES w/the Aluminum, NOT plastic, triggerguard and safety (I think this issue is overblown anyway, but worth it to get it from the factory in desired setup). After the Rem 870 was quickly eliminated I was looking at the 500, 590, or 590A1, and..... After examining the 500 vs. 590 'debate' I decided I wanted the bayonet lug(WHY NOT!!) and the20" barrel w/8-shot tube. So, that left 590 vs. 590A1 (the A1 has better machined parts and seems to have more care taken in it's construction!), after picking up the A1, I KNEW it was for me, it's not nearly as heavy as people make it out to be (but you CAN probably pound nails/crack a skull w/the barrel!LOL), and although it is NOT the smooth, silky pump of the Win 1300, it DOES DEFINITELY 'smooth out', and the pump stops about an inch from receiver while pumping, making it HARD to even TRY and short stroke action w/my technique! I just cleaned it and lubed it and cycled the action about 100 times and can already tell a diff, imagine about 200-300 00 Buck and slugs will help EVEN MORE! It just feels great, takes the bayonet off your M16-type rifle! And there is, IMHO, no other shotgun besides an Ithaca style that loads as EASILY or QUICKLY as a 500/590 series, just drop shell in loading port and PUSH! And it is NO problem for my 6'0" 170 Lbs self to keep the shotgun shouldered with strong hand and load w/weak hand while keeping aimed downrange. So, after seeing and understanding the diff between the 590 and 590A1, I KNEW THIS WAS MY GUN! The GRS line up PERFECTLY, I was looking at the 590 SPX but having the 930 SPX and having to put a slugster stock on it to get a locked in and consistent cheek weld, I decided to go w/the lower profile Mossy GRS' and installing an XS Big Dot up front, and the SpeedFeed stock that I only got cause it was the only 20" A1 w/GRS in stock at time, but it REALLY RETAINS the shells EXTREMELY tightly, yet not difficult to remove.... IT ROCKS! AND Buds gave me, automatically actually, the price drop difference!! SOO COOL! Great SOLID GUN, couldnt be happier, an M7 bayonet will suffice for now, M9 is gonna be here soon!! GET IT, WONT REGRET IT!!! Be back after PATTERNING IS DONE!!

UPDATE: One of the owners of Buds personally called me today and explained to me their business structure. They have such a high volume that they don't personally inspect every item (I'd imagine that would be impossible). Especially ones that are shipped from the warehouse. These issues are related to Mossberg Quality Control, and NOT Buds. I'm getting in touch with Mossberg customer service to see what they can do for me. Thanks again Buds!

Got this transferred to me earlier today. The firearm itself feels rock solid. It's just the fact that when I got it, I noticed there were scratches on the barrel and receiver, as well as a little bit of the parkerizing had been worn/chipped off. I've spent almost $3000 with Buds in the past 10 months. I might just start ordering elsewhere through my FFL from now on...
