    Ok guys i have a 12ga. 500A model and i traded for it and i though it had a cut off stock, seemed like about a half inch or so. Well i went to Wal-Mart and theres looked the same with a shorter stock. I mean i dont have much in the gun and im not going to use it, but i dont want to sell someone else a cut off stock gun. Can anyone help

    I have a new Mossberg 500 20 gauge shotgun that has a plug allowing only 2 shells to be loaded. How do I remove the plug?

    It realy should be an easy item to find,since people are always replacing them with camo`d ones.Same with barrels,there averywhere..I`ve even got a couple(Barrels) in my gagage.The shop I deal with has a lot of stocks,most shops with a smith on board should have stock they`ve taken off.But I would not worry much about a half inch..could be just the ticket for sombody`s ol` lady!.218

    Wittum-You have a full length stock. If you want longer than that, you're probably talking custom. 13-14" is what most factory stocks have. When you are wearing a heavy coat in the winter, you push the gun out another 1/2 inch or more.
