Video: Mossberg 590 Shockwave

Though not necessarily destined for use afield, there's no denying that the Mossberg 590 Shockwave was one of the biggest hits on the floor at SHOT Show 2017. Classified as a fully compliant firearm by the BATFE, the new 14" barrel Mossberg 590 Shockwave pump-action 12-gauge does not require a tax stamp for transfers. With an overall length of 26.37" and cylinder bore barrel, the Shockwave provides a 5+1 round capacity using 2 3/4" shotgun shells. Hard to argue with that in a home-defense situation.

Maybe with a few tweaks it can double as a turkey gun? That's up to you. Still, it wowed us enough to share. Get a closer look at the Shockwave with the video embedded above, hosted by American Rifleman's Joe Kurtenbach.
