The Mossberg 590 Persuader delivers proven pump-action reliability for tactical applications and home defense scenarios. This 12-gauge shotgun combines the trusted 590 platform with practical features including an integrated heat shield and dual-grip configuration for enhanced control.
What Makes This Different
The 590 Persuader stands apart from standard hunting shotguns with its tactical-focused design and dual stock system. The included pistol grip provides compact maneuverability in tight spaces, while the traditional stock offers conventional shooting positions. The cylinder bore barrel accepts a full range of 12-gauge ammunition without choke restrictions, and the integrated heat shield protects the barrel during rapid-fire sequences.
Key Features
- 8+1 capacity with 3-inch chamber capability for maximum versatility
- 20-inch cylinder bore barrel with integrated heat shield for thermal protection
- Dual grip system includes both synthetic stock and pistol grip configurations
- Matte blued receiver finish resists corrosion and reduces glare
- Heavy-walled barrel construction rated for high-brass magnum loads
- Ambidextrous tang-mounted safety for left and right-handed operation
- Drilled and tapped receiver accepts optics and tactical accessories
Field testing demonstrates consistent cycling across ammunition types from light target loads to 3-inch magnum shells. The dual-action bars eliminate binding under rapid manipulation, while the anti-jam elevator prevents double-feeding malfunctions. Law enforcement agencies have adopted the 590 platform for patrol and tactical units due to its mechanical reliability in adverse conditions.
