Just traded for a Mossberg 500 Mariner

I just made a deal to bring home another one for the safe. It's a Mossberg 500 Mariner, 12 Ga. This shotgun is coated with a really durable marine coat finish and has a 6 shot tube with 3" shells. It's very lightly used and in excellent condition.

I do a great deal of light remodeling and home repairs and I traded my services at $25/hr for this one. I get it for $300, so I know I made a pretty good trade. It has a shorter 18.5" barrel. The previous owner put on a rear ghost sight and a red ramp front sight. So it's ideal for HD.
This will make a great addition to my shotgun collection. I saw this about 6 years ago when I was selling my friends late husbands guns and always hoped that I would be able to get it someday. Well, today's the day.

Here are a few photos, so you can see what I got to bring home today.










Regards,
Gregory

Looks great!

Man, you just made me decide that I now suddenly wish Mossberg would make their "Blackwater" version of the 590A1 with the "marine" finish - how sweet would that be?
