590a1

Went by dicks today...catalog has a 590a1 (don't know if it has a heat shield or not) but it has ghost ring sights and speed feed stock (dont know if 2 rds or 4 rds) for 500. I think the 590a1 with ghost ring sights was 480. 20 bucks for speed feed = win

It's actually called the 590 SPX on the sticker, I know because I bought one today.

No heat shield, nor needed, it's the newer heavy walled barrel on these which doesn't have heat shield option. It is a 9 shot 20" fully parkerized including bolt and action. Does not have the M590a1 marking on the receiver, but the box production label and item number identifies it as that. It is an unbeatable deal at $449. I didn't get the display gun, mine was NIB in the plastic wrap with oil paper wrapped inside. There are 2 left on the rack. Trigger guard is polymer (those are also milspec as both types are in use by the military), and the plastic to metal safety switch upgrade is only a $12 part. Taking her out to run a few slugs this afternoon.

Took her out to the great outdoors instead to Loch Raven, shot a round of trap with her, not the greatest gun for trap , but good experience with the sights (they were right when I got on the clay) and function of the gun.

I'll add too, the finish doesn't hold residue or grime, this was a very clean shotgun after 25 rounds, not something I've been able to say about others.

Hafer's in downsville has the 590 a1 with speed stock for 465 out the door. Good price.
Get it.
