Introduced in 1960, the Mossberg 500 has become one of the most prolific firearms ever produced. At this point, more than 12 million have rolled off the assembly line and there's little reason why another 12 million won’t follow suit in the impending decades. With that in mind, it’s no wonder Mossberg picked the line to spotlighted the company’s upcoming 100th Anniversary.
Featuring the same battle-tough design as the rest of the series with a throwback look, the recently introduced the 500 Persuader Retrograde and 590A1 Retrograde are eye-catchers. Essentially the tactical models of the shotguns, the guns have traded up their synthetic stocks for sticks of walnut with some solid results. The guns definitely have an air of old-school intimidation about them that any smoothbore fan is sure to love.
