Fix my gun New mossberg persuader

Just got this new mossberg. Wondering if this gap is normal or bad machining at the barrel end or in reciever.

It's Reddit's favorite pump gun to glaze.

What 12 gauge pump is better than a mossberg?

I hate to say it, but for most people, a Mossberg 500 is perfectly fine if they want a new pump gun.

Oh ok I thought you meant mossberg in general gets glazed to much.

I agree a regular 500 is good for most, if you don't mind the added weight though the heavy Walled Barrel and aluminum trigger group is nice.

Yeah I'm mostly talking about the 590A1 being too overrated lol, the regular 500/590 is already extremely reliable at a much more reasonable price. Plus when smaller bits eventually break you won't feel as bad.

P.S. Purely anecdotal but I kept seeing new 590A1s with out of spec magtube lip causing feeding issues.
