Oh and nothing wrong with taking out a bad guy with a stylish gun!!
I shot 15 rounds in my 590 Saturday and i will tell you the gun barrel heated up on it. That is why i am dumping on a heatshield.Shit hits the fan and it needs a few consecutive reloads i want to be able to focus on the targets not on getting scolded!! Oh and i didn't take anything as snarky lol. It was a good question and I hope i gave a good answer!!
circleshooter said:I may eventually add a light to it but in my place, due to outside lights in the courtyard, it's never actually pitch dark. I can see pretty well at night. Plus, isn't the muzzle flash the only light the intruder needs to see?
OK, you guys talked me into it. Got an ElZetta ZSM tactical shotgun mount with a Polytac LED 120 lumen flashlight. Pretty nice setup for not a lot of money. Mounted it so that when I mount the gun I can easily reach out with my index finger from the pump and turn it on or off.
But in a high stress situation, throw 50% of your skill, knowledge, and awareness out the window. Get a light.
No, I'm opting for the Beer Helmet. Hands-free drinking during home defense seems to me the way to go.

But replacing the bead sight with a diamond might add some class!
You're going to Bedazzle a HD gun?
No, not really. But if I was it wouldn't be that fake bedazzle crap. It would be a real diamond.
Circleshooter; I am digging the light setup. I am adding the Elzetta mount and a surefire light to my list. Looks like i can have my gun, light mount, light, and heatshield for the low low price of $495.00!! In my opinion that is a damn good deal.
mrh.; that sounds pretty wild. Who manufactures that?
Just got word from mossberg that the heatshield i have on the way won't work on my 590. I am curious to see how true this is as i think the guy on the phone thought i am the owner of the 18.5" barrel cruiser model and it actually have the 23" barrel with extended tube mag on mine. I will keep you guys up to date in this ordeal. I will try by all means to get this baby to fit. Worst case scenario looks like i will just have to buy a 500 88 maverick for about 250-275.00 to put the shield on. can't beat the reason to buy another gun!!

get a glove...or an oven mit...whatever...or just hold it by the foregrip. In what world do you expect to have to dump a few mag tubes through a 590 and still be alive to care about a scalded hand?
