The Mossberg Gold Reserve 75480 delivers premium over/under performance in the versatile 410 gauge platform. This elegantly crafted shotgun combines traditional styling with modern manufacturing precision for upland hunting and sporting applications. The polished silver engraved receiver showcases detailed scroll work that reflects Mossberg's commitment to both function and aesthetics.
What Makes This Different
The Gold Reserve series represents Mossberg's entry into the premium over/under market, featuring hand-engraved receivers and select-grade walnut stocks. Unlike basic field guns, this model incorporates extractors, single selective trigger, and chrome-lined barrels for enhanced durability. The 410 gauge chambering provides reduced recoil while maintaining effective range for small game and clay sports.
Key Features
- 26-inch polished blued barrels with 3-inch chamber capability
- Hand-engraved polished silver receiver with decorative scroll work
- Satin-finished black walnut stock and forend with checkering
- Single selective trigger system with barrel selector
- Automatic extractors for reliable shell removal
- Chrome-lined barrels resist corrosion and fouling
- Right-hand configuration with standard length of pull
Field performance centers on the 410 gauge's unique characteristics - lighter recoil impulse than larger gauges while maintaining sufficient energy for quail, dove, and rabbit hunting. The 26-inch barrel length provides optimal velocity for the smaller bore diameter. Chrome-lined bores resist leading buildup common with 410 ammunition, extending accuracy intervals between cleanings.
