An 18 inch cylinder bore barrel is needed along with a vent rib barrel with screw in chokes. Lose the folder, a fixed conventional stock will give a better cheek weld as well as faster mounting. Also with the safety on top of the reciever you will need to take your hand off the pistol grip to take it off and on. If you set it up with a conventional stock, you have a shotgun that can be used for anything simply by changing the barrel. Deer-rifled barrel, Skeet and birds- vent rib, and home defense-cylinder bore. I have a Mossberg 500 set up this way. It is the first shotgun I've owned and over the years many others had come and gone(pump and semi) but none could match the 500's utility. Nice gun.
