Mossberg 50790 590A1 Pro 12 Gauge 6+1 18.50" Tungsten Gray Cerakote Barrel & Steel Drilled & Tapped Receiver, Black Synthetic Stock
The Mossberg 590A1 Pro is a 12 gauge pump-action shotgun built from the ground up for serious defensive work and tactical applications. This 18.5-inch model pairs a heavy-walled barrel finished in durable Tungsten Gray Cerakote with a steel receiver drilled and tapped for optic mounting—giving you a hard-use platform that's equally at home in professional hands or behind an experienced civilian shooter. The 6+1 capacity and compact 37.75-inch overall length make it maneuverable in tight spaces while the adjustable synthetic stock (12–13-inch length of pull) accommodates different body types and gear configurations.
Built on proven Mossberg pump-action architecture, the 590A1 Pro features heavy-walled construction, dual extractors, and a robust steel-to-steel lockup that's been field-tested in demanding environments. The top-mounted ambidextrous safety and twin action bars—paired with an anti-jam elevator—ensure smooth, reliable cycling under stress. Every control point is reinforced: the metal trigger guard and safety button won't fail when it matters.
The optic-ready receiver ships with metal ghost-ring and front fiber-optic sights mounted low-profile with protective wings. Remove the optics plate and you can mount modern micro-dot sights (RMSc footprint) directly to the receiver, letting you run your preferred red dot or reflex sight. The cylinder-bore choke gives you pattern flexibility for buckshot, slugs, or less-lethal rounds. Cerakote finish is a proven ceramic-polymer coating designed to resist corrosion and rough handling—essential for a gun that earns its paycheck.
Whether you're setting up a patrol gun, home-defense shotgun, or training a new shooter, the 590A1 Pro delivers the controls and durability you'd expect from a purpose-built platform. This is Mossberg's professional-grade pump, and it doesn't cut corners.
