Shockwave!

Great little gun.
I have a 12ga Winchester Defender and I put a carbon fiber shield on it control the recoil a little better and stop burning my thumb on the barrel.
 
Want one.... illegal here though [emoji35]. (TX)

Well so far I have fired Federal Classic OOB, Remington Express OB and RWS Brenneke OOB through my Shockwave. The RWS was the most noticable in volume(LOUD) and held a fairly tight pattern at 8-10 yards. The other two just were...well buckshot. The patterns are about fist sized at that distance. I'd be curious to see what 25 yds brings with buckshot and slugs.
I have played with numerous bird shot loads and find them to be uninteresting, but effective if needed. The weapon recoils enough that new shooters can be very intimidated very quickly. I would advise some 1oz or less loads for the newer folks. I have found the gun doesn't take kindly to poor recoil management. The stock plug popped out, the magazine cap unscrewed, and the magazine spring keeper popped out of the tube after two rounds. Thankfully I observed this before any damage occurred to gun or shooter.
It's kind of a neat little gizmo that I mainly keep tube loaded only after I found that its small size when slung left me to forget about it. Somehow I managed to find the safety disengaged when I unslung the gun later. I have been trying to reproduce this without success, but I believe it occurred when riding on a lawnmower.
 
Just got an e-mail from KY Gun Co back in stock. Clicked the buy button $389 free shipping. I'll probably get a notification from GrabaGun for $352 any minute now! :rolleyes:

Really wish I hadn't see this thread....
 
Hey, at least you aren't​ one of the fools waiting on Buds to get some back in and make you wait close to ninety days... supervisor said he had 500-600 reserve orders. That's almost $250,000.00 tied up in prepaid orders. Wow.

IIRC, Bud's charges a penalty for those who cancel their orders within a month or two. This is a whim purchase for me. Heck, 90 days from now I might have lost interest. :D

They try, but if you argue that they have no hope of filling those 600 orders in ninety days and that they are completely unethical and unprofessional for not having communicating with you during your waiting period... adding that if you and so many others had been aware they'd oversold so badly you would never have placed a prepaid order...they give you a full refund. That's how it worked out for me...in the parking lot of the LGS on the way in to pick up my Shockwaves...
 
Looks like Mossberg is starting to get in gear with Shockwaves.
After nearly 3 months waiting on SOS I canceled the order.
Went to every on line dealer and filed out "notify when in stock".
Just got a email from Lanbo's Armory.
$393.87 shipped.
Never dealt with them, just passing the word.

You Texans don't know what your missing.
These are too much fun. Hope your AG gets going.
 
cool and congrats
I've seen them both ways, some with rear swivel stud and some with front only... like mine.

Mine only had the front one too. Strange... I wonder if I email Mossberg if they would send me the back one.
 
I'm halfway serious about putting a light and laser on one just to see what it's capable of.

I'm not familiar with lasers for shotguns, but that sounds like a good idea. Besides, with a laser you could shoot it at waist level, to ensure that you don't screw up and smash your face in. :eek:
