    Very good video, I changed my Maverick 88 8 shot Security pinned fore end using your video. I decided to use real Mossberg parts because I had read some reviews of the Promag tangs breaking. If anyone is interested here are the parts you need direct from Mossberg:
    Mossberg part numbers:
    Slide (long) Tube: 11603BL - $34.00
    Slide Tube Nut: 3408 - $12.00
    Order direct from Mossberg

    Thanks for taking the time to show us how to make this modification. Before I found this video, I watched several others. They were all missing crucial steps. Yours was complete and showed me enough detail so that even though I am not a gunsmith and have minimal skills I was able to complete the job. I did it slowly and carefully and took about an hour. But it came you great and I am happy with the results. I used the Streamlight 1,000 lumen forend grip with built-in light that was originally designed for the Mossberg 500 series.
    Thanks!!

    Hey, brother. To prevent possible damage or maring marks. Put the forend in the oven warming it to 250 thoroughly. Put the slide action tube in the freezer for about 30 minutes. The two parts will slide freely long enough to mate up.

    I put a 7 5/8'' action slide with a vintage walnut corncob forearm and stock, on my Maverick 88, it does not mare or scratch up the mag tube. it functions perfectly. the wood furniture added a little weight but that helps ease recoil, adding the wood furniture and the new action slide improved the look and function of the already good looking and great functioning shotgun.

      @@MG-wi1eq You should do it for sure, such an easy upgrade. The synthetic stock and forearm are good quality but the wood and new action slide just gives it more, with all that I have into it $$ wise is about equal to a new Moss 500 but with an extra barrel and mag tube. with just a few minutes I have 2 different looking shotguns The Mav 88 is an amazing platform for the money. I have no regrets buying this shot gun even if I would have keep it factory OEM.

      @sergeantblack2408  10 лет назад +1

      You're welcome. That's why I made the video, I couldn't find a good one myself either. I had a nightmare of a time trying to put a different forend on. I had a shorter plastic forend, the shorter action tube assembly that was not the pro-mag brand, and a hogue adapter nut and I would have had to use a dremel tool or something on the inside of the forend to have any chance of making it fit. This metal forend fit tight but perfect and the pro-mag action tube assembly came with the required correct sized nut. If you buy a different brand action tube assembly (not pro-mag), it will probably not come with the nut. Also, the seperate hogue adapter nut you can buy is unnecessary and won't fit right unless you're using the hogue forend (despite what alot of internet message boards may tell you).

I dont know which is better for my mossberg 500 or if only one length is the right one. Any help is appreciated

  • @asaturn
    @asaturn 4 года назад

    hard to see since it's blurry and all black, but the key part of re-assembly is that the bars on the new forend tube go into the slider piece you took out. otherwise, the forend can't "rack" the mechanism and will just be jammed. the other little bars will only go back in one way as described in the video. once you have the forend lined up, the metal piece back in, and the little bars in place, the trigger will go right in and you can reinsert the locking pin and you're set.

  • @MrZipperhead16
    @MrZipperhead16 4 года назад +2

    Cool looking foregrip. You can get lights, lasers and a forward grip on there. Question is, WTF FOR?? Every time you rack the action the light or whatever moves off target. The other universally dumb idea is a pistol grip. Unless your thumbs are 6 inches long you can't reach the tang safety without shifting your grip. Put a clamp on light holder just ahead of the foregrip and operate it with your thumb. If you MUST have a pistol grip, get a Mav. 88 so your finger will rest next to it on the trigger guard. The more shit you put on the gun the more your asking for a failure.

  • @superbug1977

    • @sergeantblack2408
      @sergeantblack2408  8 лет назад

      Hmmm.....Only thing I can think of is maybe something didn't go back together right - take it apart and put it back together one more time maybe? On mine, if there is no ammo in it, I can only slide the action 1 time then it locks too. But there is a small lever and if you push up on it, it will release it and you can rack the gun again.

    • @ecf150king
      @ecf150king 8 лет назад
