Mossberg 500

Is there such a thing as an extention for a Mossberg 500? It would make it
possable to load more than the standard 6rds!

Yes and no. Unlike most pump shotguns, the Mossberg 500 magazine is closed on the end to give the barrel bolt something to screw into. If you want a high capacity 500, you have to replace the magazine tube and get a barrel with the lug moved farther forward to match:

The 590 Mossbergs use a different magazine that does accept an extension.
