Realale Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 New gun day is approaching again and this time I want a pump action. What one would you go for out of the 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPhantom Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Can't comment on the Mossberg but love my Supernova. I've been using it in my duck syndicate this season and it is excellent. No problems shooting heavier loads too if that is important to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sco77w Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 All depends on what you want it for. I have both. If you’re looking for something to shoot PSG or something that would need you to load quickly or need magnum carts the Supernova is the shotgun. I was thinking of selling my 500 to free up funds for a .22 rifle build. Also got my shooting buddies Supernova listed on the private sales page. If you’re decided on a Supernova that is worth a look. Feel free to pitch an offer if you fancy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 I’ve had two Mossberg pumps ( still own one ) but I also have a Benelli self loader. Benelli for me. Make sure it’s proved for steel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossy835 Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 i have a mossburg pump and love it,24"never fails Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckandswing Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 I have a mossberg 590 - lovely thing. Never missed a beat. There’s a reason so many American police forces use them. Saying that, my friends supernova is a gem too. Get both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 I have a S1 Mossi pump for sale if you’re interested! 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Practical shooter Posted January 16, 2022 Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 I lso have a sec 1 mossberg for sale, I'm happy to negotiate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rimfireboy Posted January 16, 2022 Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 I’ve got both and both are good work horses. The benelli is more refined and better finished and feels more solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strimmer_13 Posted January 16, 2022 Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 (edited) I hated my mossberg 500. Felt like a gun that would last but by god it was crude. And so noisy, the rattles from the foreend, might as well be banging pans together while your walking about. I've got a sxp now. 100% a better handling gun, and I score better with it than anything else I've owned, but I'll guarantee the mossberg 500 will still be going when the Sxp is long dead and in parts. Benelli is on my list and a remi at some point. Edited January 16, 2022 by strimmer_13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet11-87 Posted January 17, 2022 Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 had a few from the 500 series and honestly cant fault them. got a 535 for wildfowling and i think it will see many more seasons before i look at changing. the rattle in the forend somone mentioned is a thing. they all rattle and some more than others but apparently theyre made intentionally with a loose tolerance to help function when full of mud, grit and all the other good stuff guns of this nature get to see.

theshootist Posted January 17, 2022 Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 I would certainly choose the Benelli over the Mossberg. If you want to hold wooden furniture rather than plastic then that might push you to the Mossberg though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Practical shooter Posted January 17, 2022 Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 Benelli definitely wins the semi auto class Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green hornet Posted January 18, 2022 Report Share Posted January 18, 2022 I did love my mossberg 500 i had a section 2 one with a 24inch barrel but the matching length crimped mag tube.I polished mine up and had the barrel chromed it really did look great I couldn’t hit dam a thing with it though 🤣.After having both the benelli and the mossberg I agree the mossberg will last longer.However if your looking for a pump I would go for an old 870 wingmaster not the never ones though i absolutely love mine and shoot extremely well with it.

The parkerised 870 in synthetic is a seriously good bit of kit. Totally practical and just about indestructible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Realale Posted January 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 After much reading and viewing of YouTube reviews I have decided on the Mossberg. 500 or 590 is now the question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet11-87 Posted January 25, 2022 Report Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) depends do you plan on extending the mag or not.. afaik the only diffrence is that the 500 has the locking nut built into barrel and it screws into the mag tube, on the 590 it slides over and is secured with a nut so you can if you want exted the mag if its registered section 1 Edited January 25, 2022 by Sweet11-87 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
