Misc Mossberg Folding Stocks
I know little about shotguns but have been thinking of making what is basically my Homesteader adapter but for the Mossberg Shockwave (and fits Mossberg Mavericks and 500s? I believe the rears are the same), but was wondering if there would be any interest in one.
I believe a folding stock is not possible on the current Shockwave offerings we currently have because they do not meet OAL requirements, correct? So this would be a custom piece that would fit OAL while folded.
Just asking if this is a niche that needs to be filled, as I'm not very informed about what options we have here.

TL;DR for OP: to remain NR on 14" barrels, the folding stock you design will need to have an extended "tail" that might look ugly.

You can't run a pistol grip only birds head due to how close to the sun they are.

Some folding stocks might work with the Shockwave. A telescoping stock for sure will work.
A 14 Inch shotgun is about the length of a 16 inch Lever action.
I'd say if you do a pic rail stock, just get a shorter Stock, and use a pic rail riser to increase the length so the folded length is longer

I'd be interested in a good pistol grip stock. I love the new chisel ones personally like when the stock doesnt have a massive drop and is more inline with barrel.

Can you post a picture of what your idea is. You'll be able to gauge interest based on comments
