The TruGlo TG-TG8955M1 transforms standard Mossberg shotgun receivers into tactical platforms ready for modern optics and accessories. This precision-engineered mount eliminates the guesswork of shotgun optic mounting while maintaining the reliability shooters demand from their defensive firearms.
What Makes This Different
Unlike universal rail systems that require permanent modifications, this mount integrates directly with Mossberg receiver geometry for rock-solid stability. The design maintains proper eye relief for red dot sights and scopes while keeping the mounting profile low enough to preserve iron sight co-witness. Machined tolerances ensure consistent zero retention through hundreds of rounds and field conditions.
Key Features
- Direct Mossberg receiver integration - no gunsmithing required
- Picatinny rail specification for universal optic compatibility
- Aircraft-grade aluminum construction with Type III hard anodizing
- Low-profile design maintains sight picture and handling characteristics
- Steel mounting hardware included with thread-locking compound
- Compatible with most red dot sights, scopes, and tactical accessories
- Preserves access to receiver-mounted controls and safety mechanisms
Field performance centers on maintaining zero under recoil stress and environmental changes. The mount handles the sharp impulse of 12-gauge loads without shifting point of impact, making it suitable for home defense, tactical applications, and hunting scenarios where quick target acquisition matters. Corrosion-resistant finish stands up to moisture, cleaning solvents, and temperature extremes found in real-world use.
