Mossberg 5500 info

frigate88 · December 30, 2011, 06:49 PM

Found a mossberg 5500, camo, synthetic, with a 28" barrel. They guy wants $325 for it. Is that a fair price? I looked on gun broker and couldn't find anything on it other than parts. Also are mossbergs semi autos reliable. I have a few 500 pumps that are flawless. But don't have to much knowledge on their semi's.
Thanks

The 5500 was not a very successful offering. The 9200 that replaced it was slightly better, but I'd not suggest either at any price.

I wouldn't give a hundred for a 5500...

On the other hand... I have several body parts I would gladly give for a 930 field in american walnut and shiny blue finish.
