Mag fed pump gun

[Spots]

We put this together at the shop today. Kit is made by Adaptive Tactical, and includes the covnersion kit, and a 10 rd drum, with additional drums available seperate as well as 5 rd stick mags. This is a duracoated Mossberg 500 with the 10 rd drum kit. Gotta say I can see me building one of these for myself very soon.

I held that today (or it's sister). Added a handle. Looks good.

Whoa.

 

Sounds like the perfect home defense gun... how much would that run, Spots?

The whole setup runs $750. Thats a Mossberg 500 with the internals smoothed up, duracoated and 2 10 rd drums, with the m4 style stock also. I really want one as a home defense and shtf gun.

Looks like $400 for the kit with one 10rd drum and then $130 for each additional drum.

Yep thats the kit. Installation went decently. Id want a decent set of tools, but it doesn't take a Rocket Surgeon or anything.

Does it feed well, I tried one a few years ago and the first few had so much spring tension it was tuff to cycle.

It was the reason I went with a Saiga 12.

I'll bet it handles like a tree stump.

Neat conversion there Spots.

However my 590A1 already holds 8+1 in its tube, plus an extra +4 in reserve in a speed feed stock, although the magazine/drum fed idea is kind of cool I can't help but wonder about what that does to the weapons ergonomics, which is one of the reasons I've never liked the Sagia shotgun's either, they just don't "swing" on to the target like I want/expect them to.

Anyway what is the added weight of the conversion? How did it seem to handle? Any reliability problems?

Ergonomics, it hurts it BUT that ability to get another full mag with one hand motion is a bit enticing. Tis why I like that Saiga 12, that and it's on a almost 70 year old platform that is gas operated. But I can't complain about my 870, under $450 invested and it runs like a top.

For that amount of money you could almost buy a saiga 12.

You could absolutely buy a decent AR15, if you want a better defense gun.
