Show us your HD or "Tacti-cool" Shotgun Pics!

Just picked up my first shotgun, a Mossberg 500. So far I love it! I would like to convert it to more of a HD purpose shotgun. Nothing over the top, just need some ideas on what type of modifications to look into.

So with that being said... Show them if ya got 'em!

After playing around with a bunch of different setups on my Mossberg 500 looking for my "perfect" shotgun HD setup this is what I came up with.

That is me with 5 year old Junior on his BMX bike and trophies... He made 2nd in florida for his 4-5 year old season... The big trophy was bigger than him and he insisted on carrying it from the award ceremony to the car where it barely fit... The number plate was part of the award and was his following season designated number rather than assigned 27-c...

No pictures needed for me, just a stock Mossberg SPX with Federal Tactical LE reduced recoil ammo. Looks pretty plain but sure gets the job done at 7+1

Those are some mean looking shotguns!

DETOX, that bayonet cracks me up And I feel sorry for any d-bag that ever has to see the business end of that thing, or any of these shotguns.

Cerick, I like your setup. Plenty of options there... What all exactly do have accessory wise for yor shotgun?

Rem870hunter: It came on the gun pictured, someone had done a hackjob on the barrel. They did a pretty weak job too, but my gunsmith made it all better. It was an old beat up 870 ESM I took in and fixed up.

add a surefire

I use my 870 for HD, and by far the best addition has been my surefire forend. At first I was a little weary about the light being attached to my gun for identifing purposes however anyone comming into my house at night unannouced will deserve the gun pointed at them.

couple mossys

500 18.5" sawed off with tac star thompson grips front and back
kept this under my bed a number of years, it's a American Field Grade that came with a 28" ribbed and a 24" smoothbore with rifle sights. Gift when I was 16 from my dad, a cousin has had it a while, but I'm getting it back, may take the wood furnature and install on the 590 if I decide to keep it for a more vintage trench gun look (same furnature featured on a 590 in the Nam/heist flick Dead Presidents, thought it looked damn good, just as good as say a Model 12 Trench)


Winchester 1300 Marine Defender, loks dark in the pic, but was mirror chrome except reciever. Pachmayr Vindicator PG and forearm

attachment is my current 590 SP, nothing added

next up is a 930 SPX, I'll post that when I get it (only plan to add a simple single point sling), have my girl do the Bonnie and Clyde gun-grab pose and post it here
