Flat Dark Earth Cerakote Finish

Protecting the metal surfaces of your shotgun from corrosion, abrasion, and extreme environments, the flat dark earth Cerakote coating offers an ultra-durable ceramic finish. This high-temperature, chemical-resistant layer locks in signature FDE coloration while providing a low-flash, non-reflective surface ideal for tactical and hunting scenarios. Cerakote’s advanced formula ensures long-term reliability and an eye-catching aesthetic that complements modern accessories.

Raptor Bird’s Head Pistol Grip

Ergonomically molded to fit the natural contour of the shooter’s hand, the Raptor bird’s head pistol grip minimizes felt recoil and enhances pointability. By shifting weight directly into the support hand, this innovative grip design promotes rapid target acquisition and improved muzzle control. Balanced at just 5.3 pounds, the Shockwave offers manageable recoil impulse for 2¾in and 3in shells—even in a compact package.

Heavy-Walled 14.38in Barrel with Cylinder Bore

The beefy, heavy-walled barrel on the 590 Shockwave is engineered for maximum strength, heat dissipation, and consistent shot patterns. With a cylinder-bore configuration, the barrel ensures even shot spread for close-quarters engagements and home-defense applications. Its 14.38in length delivers compact maneuverability without sacrificing ballistic performance.

Corn Cob Forend with Strap

The patented corn cob-style forend features a positive texture and integrated strap to secure the shooter’s support hand well clear of the muzzle. This non-slip grip ensures confident cycling under stress and enhances retention in wet or gloved conditions. The pump handle’s symmetrical design supports right- or left-handed operation with ease.

Clean-Out Tube Magazine Cap

Maintenance is simplified with Mossberg’s removable clean-out tube magazine cap. Quick access to the magazine tube allows rapid clearing of obstructions, foreign debris, and spent hulls. Routine cleaning and inspection can be performed in seconds—keeping your shotgun in top-working condition.

5+1 Capacity and 3in Chamber

The 590 Shockwave holds five 2¾in or 3in shells in the tubular magazine and one in the chamber for a total capacity of 5+1. This configuration balances firepower and compactness, making it suitable for personal defense, ranch work, and tactical training. Standard Mossberg magazines and accessories are fully compatible.

Performance and Reliability

Built on Mossberg’s time-tested pump-action platform, the 590 Shockwave benefits from over 60 years of manufacturing excellence. Its twin action bars forend stabilization, military-grade metal alloys, and ambidextrous safety deliver dependable function under adverse conditions. Users can rely on smooth cycling, minimal malfunctions, and straightforward disassembly for field stripping and cleaning.
