Mossberg just dropped a game-changer for tactical shotgun enthusiasts with the 590R Chisel and 590RM Chisel, teaming up with Chisel Machining to bolt on their innovative folding stock mount to the already beastly 590R/RM platform. We’re talking Mossberg’s legendary pump-action reliability—9+1 capacity in 18.5-inch barrels, heavy-walled chrome-lined bores that shrug off mag dumps, and that rotary ambidextrous safety—now fused with a folding stock that collapses for ultra-compact storage or vehicle ops while locking up solid for shouldered fire. It’s not just an accessory slap-on; this collab refines the ergonomics, letting you swing from pistol-grip CQB mode to full-stock stability without sacrificing the 590’s tank-like durability. Priced around $800-$900 (street estimates), it’s a steal for a factory-fresh setup that screams ready for the apocalypse or the range.
Dig deeper, and this move underscores Mossberg’s laser-focus on the 2A community’s demands in a post-ATF pistol brace era. The 590R/RM series was already a middle finger to restrictive regs—designed with 14-inch barrels and extended mag tubes that flirt with NFA lines but stay legal for most states—now amplified by Chisel’s mount for true SBR vibes without the paperwork hassle. For home defenders, hunters in tight brush, or three-gunners chasing speed, the folding stock slashes overall length to under 30 inches folded, perfect for door-kicking drills or truck guns. Implications? It pressures competitors like Remington or Benelli to innovate faster, while giving budget-conscious patriots a sub-$1K option that’s more versatile than AR-pattern shotguns. In an era of brace bans and featureless mandates, Mossberg is arming us with tools to adapt and thrive, proving the Second Amendment ecosystem evolves quicker than bureaucrats can regulate.
Bottom line: If you’re building a do-it-all scattergun, snag one of these Chisels before backorders hit. It’s not hype—it’s the evolution of the pump shotgun into a folding fortress, reinforcing why Mossberg remains a 2A cornerstone. Pair it with Federal FliteControl buckshot, and you’re golden. Who’s adding this to the safe?
