I don't think this works on the 500. The action bars are molded on to the forend. It actually can be done but you have to buy extra parts and it's a big histrionic pain in the but. Not really worth it.
The stock works fine with slight modification to allow trigger group to drop out freely. You are right about the forend I bought one before knowing and now in the process of installing slide tube. Still worth it to me I’ve heard the stock forend without the slide tubes break easily.
Yall both got the 500 with the pinned forend it sounds like. You have to make sure it's the forend that's held on by the threaded but. All you need with this one is a forend wrench to remove the nut.
Same with the Maverick 88, uses the pinned forend. You can buy the action tube that will work with these parts but they’re not that inexpensive, at least for what it is. For what you’d have invested you could probably find a better deal on a 500/590 with a non-pinned action tube.
If you have a pinned forend, just replace the slide tube assembly with a 7 3/4 slide tube assembly. Also make sure you order the castle nut to secure the new slide tube.
I wanna get the fde set and install them on my 500 SPX since i converted my shockwave to an adjustable brace/pistol grip set up. I feel like both my Mossberg’s are too similar now, and the SPX is still how it came from the factory. Added both pieces to my amazon wishlist. Good vid. Thanks.
Heavier than the stock components- interesting. After seeing your install, thought I wanted FDE, but, I think I may be more inclined to the black furniture.
Let's get to the dark side without hesitation. With this stock, which everyone seems to like so much, you cannot get the trigger assembly out, or get it back into the gun during takedown on the Mossberg 590A1, without having to loosen the stock quite a bit. This requires more time and an additional hex wrench. Whereas with normal takedown you do not need any additional tools. I like my Magpul stock, but this is really a stupid design flaw!
That's not true. I have the Mossberg 590 and have installed the Magpull stock. Ive had no issues removing the trigger housing from the shotgun. Ive never had to loosen the stock.
Butt stock should fit no problem, for the forend you’ll need additional parts. The action tube on the 88 has the action bars pinned to it, which won’t allow different forends to be installed…you’d need a replacement action tube from Mossberg.
You didn’t need to tap the old fore grip off with a plastic hammer ? It slid off that easily? That’s encouraging, I have my fore grip coming in the mail this week. Thank you.
Great video!!! I have the same set up, but I was unable to place forend far enough down and was unable to get the castle nut on. Any chance you have suggestions? Thanks for the video
If it’s a shotgun with a bead front sight there’s nothing to adjust on the one he had in the video. If you have the ghost ring or rifle type sight, or are running an optic like a red dot or scope, then yes you’d want to check your sights/optic.
From my understanding you would need to crimp the heat shield closer to the barrel and possibly sand a small amount on the forend for smooth operation..
I just bought my first mossberg 500….so when I first unboxed my mossberg shotgun…. I went to pump it but I wasn’t able to press the action sliding release lever because it was inside. ( the lever wasn’t down so I couldn’t push it) Is that normal? So the first pump I don’t press on the action sliding release lever since there is nothing in the chamber? Please I need help! Thank you!
@@BoomstickTacticalLLC the sliding release comes down after I pump it. But after I dry fire it , I don’t have push the sliding release. But once I pump it, it comes down. Is that normal?
@@scotteger6271 thanks. I’m planning on getting a Mossberg 590S once my shoulder heals completely from surgery. From what I understand the 590S is the only model that will also shoot mini shells without an adapter.
Found this on their website: : Not compatible with the optional Mossberg heatshield, removal is required before use. Also not compatible with 14" 590 Shockwave, 500, 535, Maverick 88, and AOW models.
I made it fit my 500A. Chiseled down about 2" of the polymer on the muzzle side of the forend. Also cut maybe 1/4" on the action side, just where the action touches.
Great video, I’m throwing mine in the trash though, it came on a gun bubba added stuff all over no way to look down the sights because the cheek rest is too high and the crappy holo sight doesn’t work
Wait. What exactly are you throwing in the trash? I only ask because Magpul sells the “cheek rests” separately. Just a matter of removing one screw to replace. Hope this helps.

I had not one problem with it. It says in the instructions you may have to do several modifications if it doesn’t; depends on your gun.
What’s the benefit of the Magpul forend ?
It has the ability to mount a light or anything you would want to it. Plus I think it feels better than the stock one.
Great video. No-nonsense, and right to the point.
Amazing review, just bought the parts for mine and this video was short, sweet, and straight to the point 🤙🏻 thank you
Does this work for the Mossberg 590S?
Read the video title
Read the title, yes it does work
Will these fit the Mossberg 590S model?
Yes
1st Thing U Need To
Do, Is Make Sure It's
UNLOADED...
I've been debating on if i want to buy the magpul set up and after watching this video and how easy you made it look, I'm sold.
is your forend molded to the action slide or no?
I had to take a dremal tool to my stock that way I can remove trigger group without removing stock every time
I wanna get the fde set and install them on my 500 SPX since i converted my shockwave to an adjustable brace/pistol grip set up. I feel like both my Mossberg’s are too similar now, and the SPX is still how it came from the factory. Added both pieces to my amazon wishlist. Good vid. Thanks.
And 8 days later - it's done. Lol
Nice work very informative without all the extra BS.... *subscribed*
the flathead bolt at the back keeping the factory stock attached is so goddamn hard to remove lmao fuck me
Best combo install video for magpull furniture I have seen. Maybe add how to do the magpull forend install with the heatshield for 500/590
Does it not fit with the heat shield?
With the magpul installed does it still fit inside a scabbard?
Great video, install was a breeze
can i install this on the maverick 88?
Will this fit a Mossberg 500 20 ga?
Hey there … by any chance do you have play on your forend ????? I like to hear everyone’s opinion …
Heavier than the stock components- interesting. After seeing your install, thought I wanted FDE, but, I think I may be more inclined to the black furniture.
It makes pumping a chore on the 590a1
Is yours the 590 rather than the A1? I want to get the one that looks just like yours looks.Thanks for the video. Very helpful
Mine is technically the 590 Tactical, not the 590 A1
@@BoomstickTacticalLLC Thanks, I don't want the A1 but the tactical like yours.
You can also use an old tire iron to take out that pesky butt stock screw
Did the dry thread locker make it unusually hard to turn the bolt? I just installed one and it seemed excessively resistant .
How to know an AR guy #1 when the action slide nut becomes a castle nut 😂 its almost basically the same thing 😂
I mean… it looks pretty similar 🤣
@@BoomstickTacticalLLC almost exact! Wish i could use an ar wrench on them i always have those more readily available
It's referred to as a castle nut in the magpul instructions
Thanks for this video. It really helped me out. (Just installed the Magpul stock and forend on my 590A1). Much appreciated.
Anyone have issues with the nut being properly tightened but when the forend is fully extended the wobble is still pretty bad?
Thats pretty normal for the mossberg 500 my for-end wobbles on my factory mossberg 500
The little tab on the bolt cover broke when I tried to install mine. I don't know if I can get a replacement cover or not.
I’d call Magpul they have good customer service
Would it work if I have the 590s but wanna add thos Magpul upgrade

Hey!
Can I install 590 wooden retro butt stock and fore grip to my 88?
Butt stock should fit no problem, for the forend you’ll need additional parts. The action tube on the 88 has the action bars pinned to it, which won’t allow different forends to be installed…you’d need a replacement action tube from Mossberg.
@@scotteger6271 thanks for the info
Thank you! Followed along and it went smooth
Bought one of these and it work on my 500. The castle nut just won’t screw on after placing the proper anti turning device. Any advice?
The Mossbberg 500 does NOT have a castle nut on the foregrip, just the two slider arms that go into the breech.
Great video. Short and to the point. I bought black furniture for my 12😅😅😅
Great instructional vid. Thank you!
I have the Mossberg 500 field and security combo. Wonder if this would work for that? May have a look and see if it has the castle nut on it
Does this work the same way for the Mossberg Maverick 88?
Thx for the video but I’m now more interested in wanting those GOT banners.😂😂😂
Besides video, like ur GOT house themes
I am assuming this works for the 590 shockwave too?
Чтобы установить такое цевьё на Моссберг 500 с коротким стволом, нужен специальный адаптер. Иначе не получится. ☹️
You didn’t need to tap the old fore grip off with a plastic hammer ? It slid off that easily? That’s encouraging, I have my fore grip coming in the mail this week. Thank you.
Didn’t have to do the quarter turns but yeah
Another 590 owner that doesn’t realize the 500 is designed differently... The forend will not work on the 500 without significant modification.
It will fit some 500 models but not all.
Great video!!! I have the same set up, but I was unable to place forend far enough down and was unable to get the castle nut on. Any chance you have suggestions? Thanks for the video
Can I use it on a 590s???
Thank you sir for this video post. Clear and simple. Respect.
Forgive me, I’m a novice, but do you have to re adjust the sights after you change the stock and fore end?
If it’s a shotgun with a bead front sight there’s nothing to adjust on the one he had in the video.
If you have the ghost ring or rifle type sight, or are running an optic like a red dot or scope, then yes you’d want to check your sights/optic.
Thanks!!
Will the Magpul forend work with a heat shield on the barrel ?
From my understanding you would need to crimp the heat shield closer to the barrel and possibly sand a small amount on the forend for smooth operation..
With doing this is it easy to get barrel off again to maybe put a slug barrel for hunting?
Yep. Swaps out as normal.
Can we use this for mossberg maverick
Not sure, their website says it fits the 500/590 series.
Can you shoot slugs with that shotgun?
Yes
Thanks.
Does this stock have a plastic feel to it or more of a rubber feel.
Typical magpul polymer feel. Does not feel cheap.
I just bought my first mossberg 500….so when I first unboxed my mossberg shotgun…. I went to pump it but I wasn’t able to press the action sliding release lever because it was inside. ( the lever wasn’t down so I couldn’t push it) Is that normal?
So the first pump I don’t press on the action sliding release lever since there is nothing in the chamber?
Please I need help!
Thank you!
If nothing is in the chamber or mag tube, you should have to press the slide release. I would try dry firing it empty and see if that maybe resets it.
@@BoomstickTacticalLLC the sliding release comes down after I pump it.
But after I dry fire it , I don’t have push the sliding release. But once I pump it, it comes down.
Is that normal?
@@yair7227 yes
Ah, you've gained what again?
What is the benefit of these Magpull parts?
Adjustability…can easily change length of pull, comb height, various sling options, ability to attach accessories to the forend using the MLOK slots.
@@scotteger6271 thanks. I’m planning on getting a Mossberg 590S once my shoulder heals completely from surgery. From what I understand the 590S is the only model that will also shoot mini shells without an adapter.
Plan on getting this with the heat shield on a 590s also. 🙌
Thanks magpul and their doodoo qc staff. Got no hardware kit in mine. Just two things of length of pull extenders. Dope
Will a 590 forend fit on a 500 ?

Do you know if this forend will fit on a M590 in 20ga?
I don’t think so. Everything I’ve seen online only mentions 12GA, even Magpul’s website.
The 20 gauge and 12 gauge receiver are the same size just different internals as far as I know
Great video, I’m throwing mine in the trash though, it came on a gun bubba added stuff all over no way to look down the sights because the cheek rest is too high and the crappy holo sight doesn’t work
