Guys, I've bought from you before, and the customer service is without question. I must respectfully ask why just certain groups able to purchase this shotgun. If this is a govt. mandate, I can understand that, but if it's a Bud's mandate, I am surprised and disappointed. Why would this shotgun be different from others you sell. Is it because the magazine holds more shells ? Thanks.

Joe, agreed. It seems to be out of stock at this point. I would check on large gun and accessory sites like (6)un (8)roker and Guns International as discontinued and hard to find firearms and accessories show up for sale by private individuals and small shops. Just replace (6) & (8) with G & B. --------------- Another excellent firearms website for searching is ------ gunsinternational.com/ -- Cheers and Happy Holidays!

Think the reason buds does this is so law enforcement and similar professions have first shot at higher demand firearms. Usually these firearms come at a discount or come with extra goodies like an extra magazine. I get frustrated with it too because I've found several items that I want and they usually seem to be qualified professionals only. Like Edward said hopefully when buds gets this back in stock they'll make this available for everyone and not just qualified professionals. Or you may be able to find one on a website called gunbr0ker. Hope this clears some of it up.

I'm not on the list of qualified professionals. Can I still purchase the shotgun.

Unfortunately no, this can only be purchased by qualified professionals. You would have to be a fire fighter, first responder, military, retired military, and so on to be able to purchase this. Sorry but hope this helps.

Joe, yes if you can find it in stock anywhere. But not from Bud's at this time. When it is back in stock it's possible it may be made available to everyone. It is not a LE gun only, per se, just that Bud's had it reserved for QP. Have a great day!

Your best option to find one would be to check gunbr0ker, they're a site that allows private owners and small shops to sell their products so they usually have rare and hard to find firearms and accessories. This is out of stock everywhere else.

Would his be available in 20 gauge ?

It is but it's the one you posted for that's only available to qualified professionals.

Joe, no, the 590 & 590A1 retrogrades are currently only available in 12 gauge. Have a great day! ---The one he posted is 12 gauge.

are the trigger guard and safety switch metal? Are stock and forearm walnut?

Robert, the trigger guard and safety are metal and both the stock and forearm are walnut. Cheers and stay safe!
