nice job. it went from tacticool and impractical to classy and practical (or solid and reliable, traditional and usable.....you get the idea:D)
 
I bought a 500 security about 10 years ago (crap, has it been THAT long...) when I was 20. First tried a folding stock, then a pistol grip. They didn't stay on the gun long, went back to factory pretty quick.
 
I guess I'm an oldie. Only plastic stocked gun I ever bought was cold and clammy on the hands and was quickly converted over to wood. To each his own.
 
Thanks for the comments.
I don't think i'd ever buy another another tacticool shotgun unless it was cheap and I was going to replace parts on it like I did this one.

Actually, that you had the physical ability to break a one-piece trigger only tells me to steer well clear of Mossbergs. Quite the surprise for two parties when a self-defense tool doesn't do anything when you most need it. Same to be said after you devote much time and effort to slog through mud and thickets to finally get that golden opportunity to pop an elusive 12-pointer, and the gun does nothing.
 
In the mossbergs defense...
I bought a 6 inch bolt at the hardware store to put the new stock on with, which takes a 5.5 inch bolt. I am sure i exerted quite a bit of force on it tightening down the bolt when the tab broke off the trigger.

Yeah those long bolts can be troublesome. I compensated on mine with a lot of spare washers to serve as spacers.
