Some people explain this stuff in ways that makes sense to them because they already know how, and small details get glossed over. Then there are people like you who thoroughly explain details and focus in with camera shots. This helped me get my 590 A1 running again after watching a number of videos that didn't help with the part I was stuck at. Thanks.
This is the best 590A1 disassembly/reassembly video on TH-cam, period. I felt overwhelmed until I watched this. I’ve just disassembled, completely cleaned and reassembled my new shotgun with zero issues or confusion thanks to you. The detailed walk-through with that camera angle makes all the difference. You’re the man.
Wow I can't believe this was 5 years ago. I just got one myself a week ago in 2024. Great thing about the shotguns is it looks like everything remained the same except the sights. Looks like they also added a feature on the new ones so you can carry additional shells for faster reloads. Regardless, thank you for this video as it's my first shotgun being around pistols most of my life I already stripped it down and feel comfortable now.
Best disassembly/assembly video, and i really appreciate how well you explained everything and used really great camera angles to show what you were talking about! Great job!!
Man, this video was a LIFE SAVER!!! Even 4 years later. I finally shot my new Vang Comp 590 A1. Took it apart and cleaned it today. This is my first ever shotgun. Because of this video, I was able to get it done. However, I had a couple small “issues” to work through. I had to loosen my Magpul stock because I couldn’t get the trigger group out. And, for whatever reason, it took me FOREVER to get it back in when I was done. No idea why. It would NOT go back into place. Anyways, got it figured out. Thanks again Womfat. I appreciate you brother… 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Well done!!!! I wish I would have watched video first. It would have saved me a lot of frustration. I had a terrible time reassembling my shotgun. Thank you.
I want to thank you for making this video, I've used it more than once to repair and maintain my 590, probably the best video i have seen on how to disassemble and reassemble this shotgun.
Thanks for the great video. My Shockwave needed a thorough cleaning, and I swapped out the factory forend for a TL-Racker, using your video. Thanks again.👍
Great video! Just got my first mossberg pump and was immediately intimidated with the taken but following this video made this takedown the easiest I can remember. Thanks!
Excellent video, thank you! Is it common for the action bars to slide out of the notch of the slider that sits on top of the bolt? I'm not sure what or how it happened but it was out and jammed the forend.
Did you have any issues removing the trigger assembly with the Magpul,stock? My Magpul stock presses on the end of the trigger assembly so hard that I can’t even remove the pin without loosening the stock.
Did you dremel you stock? My Magpul SGA stock is covering the trigger a little bit, and the trigger group would not come out as easily, unless I loose the stock a little bit.
How does your trigger group come out so easily with your SGA Stock????? Mine won't come out unless I loosen the stock bolt and it appears to be a common issue.
You can gently pry it out, try doing it from both sides simultaneously to not bend it. It really doesn't matter too much, the gun will function the same without it. It' sjust more annoying to take it apart because the spring will come out as soon as the cap is off.
Hey man I really appreciate how well you explained everything and used really great camera angles to show what you were talking about. I have a 590a1 with the SGA stock installed. When I have attempted to reinstall my trigger assembly, the stock did not line up correctly with the trigger assembly. It almost seems like when I initially installed the stock, I torqued down the stock screw too far. I did back it off and it did reinstall smoother. Did this ever happen to you?
TheMarmot24 hey glad I could help. This is a very common problem with the SGA stocks actually. The little notch is sometimes too tight and it is impossible to remove or install the trigger assembly. I actually took a round file and shaved it down ever so slightly to accommodate.
@@Womfat Thank you for your reply! Glad I'm not the only one who encountered this problem. I will probably end up doing what you did, I just wanted to touch base before I went for something like that.
The mag tube usually installed with a strong threadlocker. Heat it up with a heatgun or hairdryer and turn the tube counter-clockwise as usual. You'll have to probably use quite a bit of force to get it started, try not to bend or crush the tube though. Usually these don't need to be removed so there's no point in showing it
Finn Macky best way to remove it is by heating up threaded area, don’t need much heat. Turn left traditionally. If it’s too tight, get an old car fan belt and a breaker wrench and thread the belt around the tube then through the wrench, and tighten the belt and turn with wrench, very much like unscrewing the oil filter off a car. Might need to secure receiver with a vice.
Best video i have seen for assembly/dissasembly, thank you sir.
You don’t find videos that actually go that extra step, with just lil more infor… closer video… it makes a difference. Excellent video sir!

This is hands down the best Mossberg 590A1 disassembly/reassembly video on TH-cam!

This is by far the best tutorial on YT. 👍
This is the best dissembling video I’ve ever watched for this gun in particular bravo 💯👏
Awesome video! Very well filmed! Thank you. I pick up my 590A1 Wednesday ... Cheers!
Well done!!!! I wish I would have watched video first. It would have saved me a lot of frustration. I had a terrible time reassembling my shotgun. Thank you.
Nicely done. Clear, simple, easy to follow/view presentation. Thanks!

Thank you for this disassembly and reassembly video.. you are a scholar and a saint
Compared to the other slam bam videos this was a teachable moment. Wish I had watched your first!
Terrific video. Way more detail than others I’ve watched. Thanks
Excellent video with detailed instruction. I just picked up an new 590a1` and want to clean it before use. Best video yet...thank you!!!
I just upgraded my furniture thanks to your video, big thanks from canada
Thanks for the video. Watched many videos and found none more clear, concise and straightforward as yours. Nice work.
Great video. Took apart my 590A1 for the first time and this was extremely helpful. Thanks!
The best video on TH-cam on disassembly / assembly of Mossberg 590a1! Thank you 🙏
Great camera work and explanation of the reassembly of the bold slider. Thanks!!
Best disassembly/assembly video for this gun. Thank you good sir.
i watched three other videos that left out at least one key point. thanks so much for providing such complete, detailed, clear instructions
Glad i could help
Well done. Nice and slow, makes it easy to follow and understand. Thanks for taking your time!
Great video, the explanation was spot on. It is critical where you position each part when assembling the Mossberg.
Best instructions and clear video. Did not rush through it and explained every step. Well done. Thanks you.
OK, this one is the best. I tried another one and was in bad shape, found this one and was able to complete the process and learned alot!
EXCELLENT VIDEO! The best I've seen on the subject. Good job!
Very clear and well explained. Thanks
Excellent step by step presentation. Thank you.
Thank you so much! Have a 590M I could not get back together until watching this. You explain it way better than the other videos!!
Guy, keep doing what you're doing. You helped 15x more than any other video
Excellent, clear, well defined, smooth, easy to follow. Thanks for posting.
Thank You Very Much
On a Mossberg 590A1 you got the best video, precise, concise, very helpfull!!
Thanks for the great video. My Shockwave needed a thorough cleaning, and I swapped out the factory forend for a TL-Racker, using your video. Thanks again.👍
Best video I've seen yet on this subject.
Thanks a lot for the video. Excellent tutorial for someone like me, new to guns. 👍
Great video, very concise. Thank you very much. My first time takedown and it went smoothly.
Glad to help
went to change my safety and the piece fell into the receiver. thank you for the breakdown. gotta love youtube
It’s in the details which make this so good
Thanks for sharing
Thanks man, you just walked me through my first break down and build back!!!
Great video! Just got my first mossberg pump and was immediately intimidated with the taken but following this video made this takedown the easiest I can remember. Thanks!
Thanks, a very clear demonstration with good vie angles. So much better than some others I watched before this one.
Great detail. Very well done!
Thank you I was trying to figure out why the magazine tube was not unscrewing like my 500 does. I did not know they used thread locker on it.
Love the video… Best one I’ve seen on TH-cam 💯💯💯
Nicely done ✅ Clear and concise easy to follow tutorial !
Thank you man, just got one and want to do upgrades without a gun Smith. Your vid help a ton
Excellent video, great detail it helped a lot!
Very well done. Thank you for posting.
Indeed the best disassembly and reassembly!!! 👍
Getting the trigger back in afterwards was a pitas and I had to loosen the magpul stg stock to get it out too!
Thank you. Awesome job..added it to my gun tech list..
Wow
Absolutely amazing video
Thank you
Thank you ,was really helpfull!!! Greetings vom switzerland🇨🇭
Thank you, sir. Very clear and informative. Can't wait to try this at home (And probably refer back for tips to reassemble. Ha ha).
You saved me!! Thank you for this !
Thank you for this video, it's quite thorough and helpful
This was just perfect 10/10. Thank you :)
Excellent video, thank you! Is it common for the action bars to slide out of the notch of the slider that sits on top of the bolt? I'm not sure what or how it happened but it was out and jammed the forend.
Great video sir.
Helped me a lot! Appreciate it!
Perfect tutorial. Why is there a thumbs down? Someone must be jealous!😂 Stay safe Brother. 🇺🇸
Great content!.. just curious does your trigger assembly fits flush with the receiver? Mine is not flush more from the right side
Thanks! Great video! Very detailed and exactly what I needed!
God bless you for this video!
Thank you , this was a big help!!
I ruined the end of the trigger assembly that you put in first .....them little two corners....will this affect my trigger ?
Great video! Very helpful!
good and thorough video! thanks
very good detail my, new 590a1 sure is stiff. Thanks
Can the 590A1 interchange with all of the other Mossberg barrels.? (Because the 590A1 barrel is thicker.)
Like can a long 28" barrel fit on a 590A1.?
Good info, fellow Matt!
I just bought a 590….could I replace the barrel on it with a 590-A1 heavy barrel?
Excellent job....
I feel like I can completely clean my gun nos.
Thank you.
Glad to help
Did you have any issues removing the trigger assembly with the Magpul,stock? My Magpul stock presses on the end of the trigger assembly so hard that I can’t even remove the pin without loosening the stock.
Nice video homie thanks what’s is the shell holder you use ?
Did you dremel you stock? My Magpul SGA stock is covering the trigger a little bit, and the trigger group would not come out as easily, unless I loose the stock a little bit.
Yes, that's a common issue with the magpul stock. I had to file it a bit with a rounded file, only had to take a little material off.
Any tips on what to do if there's a play in the racker? When it's unloaded it moves about 2 millimeter before the actual action starts to move.
Best video ..on point no bullshit
very well done
How does your trigger group come out so easily with your SGA Stock?????
Mine won't come out unless I loosen the stock bolt and it appears to be a common issue.
Well-done.
Good instructions. Thank you.
Hello. Is the receiver on your Mossberg steel or aluminum?
Thanks for the video brother
Is the Heavy barrel the major difference from 590 ?
Heavy barrel and comes with the rails to attach accessories.
Also metal trigger guard and safety instead of plastic
Matthew Keyes not heavy barrel. Thicker barrel. Not too heavier than the 590 retro.
Is this the 20inch barrel version? Or 18.5? Great video.
20" and thank you
Excellent
How do you remove the magazine spring retainer? Don't wanna break anything.
You can gently pry it out, try doing it from both sides simultaneously to not bend it. It really doesn't matter too much, the gun will function the same without it. It' sjust more annoying to take it apart because the spring will come out as soon as the cap is off.
@@Womfat thank you sir!
Nice shotgun. In guns we trust.
Excellent!!!!
What’s the name of that barrel?
U should make sure the safety is on while doing the disassembly

@@TheMarmot24 Just make sure you go slow and keep testing the fit, dont take too much material off at once
I noticed that none of these videos even discuss removing the magazine tube.Mine won't unscrew. Is there a trick?
The mag tube usually installed with a strong threadlocker. Heat it up with a heatgun or hairdryer and turn the tube counter-clockwise as usual. You'll have to probably use quite a bit of force to get it started, try not to bend or crush the tube though. Usually these don't need to be removed so there's no point in showing it
From what I've read. You should be able to swap the 590a1 tube with the 500 tube. This would allow the use of of the 500 barrels.
Finn Macky best way to remove it is by heating up threaded area, don’t need much heat. Turn left traditionally. If it’s too tight, get an old car fan belt and a breaker wrench and thread the belt around the tube then through the wrench, and tighten the belt and turn with wrench, very much like unscrewing the oil filter off a car.
