# Mossberg Levels Up: 590R and 590RM Chisel Editions Bring Folding Stocks to the Tactical Pump King
Mossberg just dropped a game-changer for pump-action fans with the new 590R Chisel and 590RM Chisel shotguns, cooked up in partnership with Chisel Machining. These bad boys rock innovative folding stock mounts that promise rock-solid stability without the bulk, wrapped in slick Flat Dark Earth Cerakote finishes on their receivers. The 590R sticks to the classic 14-inch barrel for that compact CQB vibe (perfectly compliant where 14 rules apply), while the 590RM ups the ante with a magazine-fed design for lightning-fast reloads—think 10+1 capacity without fumbling shells under pressure. Enhanced ergonomics like aggressive texturing and optimized forends make these rigs feel like they were sculpted for high-stakes home defense or 3-gun dominance. It’s Mossberg acknowledging what we’ve all known: the 590 series isn’t just reliable; it’s the gold standard for American shotguns, now with a folding twist that screams ready for anything.
What’s clever here isn’t just the bling—it’s the strategic collab. Chisel Machining’s custom mounts solve a real pain point: folding stocks on pumps have historically been janky aftermarket hacks prone to slop and zero retention. These integrate seamlessly, maintaining the 590’s legendary action smoothness while shrinking your profile for vehicle storage, SHTF bug-out bags, or tight-quarters drills. In a market flooded with AR-pattern everything, Mossberg doubles down on pump simplicity—no gas systems to foul, no magwell drama, just point, rack, and send 12-gauge thunder. For the 2A community, this is huge: it bolsters the case for semi-auto bans by proving pumps are infinitely adaptable, battle-tested (Mil-Spec 590A1 roots), and now even more versatile for civilians facing urban threats or range warriors pushing boundaries.
Implications? Expect these to fly off shelves among patriots who value affordability (street price likely $700-900) over trendy inertia guns, while giving anti-gunners zero ammo—Mossberg-compliant, Made in USA, and unapologetically pro-defense. This collab signals more innovation ahead: imagine future Chisel-tuned 500-series or international 590 exports. If you’re building a red-dot-ready HD setup or just curating the ultimate safe queen, grab one before the waitlists form. Mossberg isn’t resting on laurels; they’re chiseling the future of tactical shotguns. Who’s adding to cart?
