The stock fore end has a lot of meat on it, you could get out some wood rasps (Harbor Freight has a really cheap set) and go to it..
Mossberg furniture question:
So:
I've found that, after much trial and error with most brands out there, overall I prefer the Mossberg 500/590 pump shotguns to the other pumps out there. And, since I got rid of my little riot gun configuration 870 (wood stocks, bead sights), I would like a short, handy pump shotgun around.
So, my winter gun project is going to be to find a beat up old 590 or 500, and configure it how I like (18" barrel, luminous bead, wood furniture, flowing robes...striking
).
Which brings me to: I dislike Mossberg's standard fore end; I prefer the corncob-style like you can find on 870P's, Winchesters, etc., particularly for tactical shotguns.
Does anybody make a wooden fore end like that for Mossbergs? A quick search of the usual sources (Brownells, et al) revealed squat.
