Considering how low in price the mossberg is (new for around 500) I figured I would pick one up soon, and have a list of what I would add to it. It will also double as a hunting gun,and due to rise of metheads lately possibly home defense for my dad so reliability is a priorty aswell so heres what I had in mind
Base 930 Ventrib with Comped 28 barrel and wood -around 500 to under 490.
RCI Magtube 10 Round - 250
Or3gun Multiuse Space,follower, and forearm retainer -100 bucks
G&GG Mossberg 930 parts (The whole page mostly) - 250.50
Robar NP3 Plus treatmeant for the internals - $115
Airtech pad from Limbsaver - $41
Madblack Microslick coating onexternals and reciver -200
TFO Front sight $60
My Gusseiamate total is $1516 not including shipping on parts and such or sales, deals, and whatever else I can find,The main reason for the coatings is I live in a swampy area, I like easy-to-clean,and since I read a few about how coatings reduce friction and helped people able to turn the gas on thier ARs down and overal improved preformance,I figured it would help with lower powered loads.Plus it looks cool. Everything else is just enlarged controls,boly handle, and scope mount. the monotube is to help the reported feeding issues I've heard with some mossbergs and thier 2 piece extended tube system. Am I missing anything besides ammo,training,and a kitchen sink?
Also is it possible to dovetail the ventrib for 1911 sights? It seems like a good idea with some Kimber Match Tritium sights or XS Big Dot target express sight. My HD plan inclues a TLR-2G With a magtube mount.
