Lookin' for one. Or possible conversion for Mossberg.

The only one I know of is the conversion for the 870 , it is a sweet rig.

Yes

Is it only possible with the Remington?

 

[wareagle50]

That company only makes one for the 870 as of now, I got a sweet 870 for sale that u could convert.

I see oddly enough, Maverick versions of the Mossberg 500 bullpup on GB quite often, and reasonably priced at that.

To clarify, Mossberg made 500 bullpups for a limited time (I have one) but I didn't know about the Maverick versions until recently.

K, I'm not the smartest guy you know... What's a Maverick version of a Mossberg 500? I googled it and all I see is 500's with pistol grips and I already have one of them.

OK, so Maverick is Mossberg's low end line. They make the Maverick 88, which looks identical to the Mossberg 500. I've got one of them, and really it looks just like my 500s. I think the main thing is that the receiver is not drilled and tapped (for a picatinny rail), but a 500 is. And they are probably made in Mexico or something, I don't really know, or care.

Now for about 7 years, Mossberg 500s were available in a factory bullpup (see Wikipedia for the years). I have one, but they are hard to find these days. I have a friend that always covets it, so I keep an eye out for him. While doing so, I came across the same gun on GB, a 12 GA bullpup, but it was marked Maverick, and not Mossberg. I've seen two of them recently, and IIRC they were --uh-$500 or so? Not a bad deal in my eyes.

Here is the Mossberg version, and I think the price is more then fair, if the bids stay low: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=394582961

Ah, got it. Thank you for the info sir.

Sure, no problem

I might be interested in wareagle's 870 if your not. Just something different, I was thinking about bullpupping one. Since I already have the mossberg one

While on the 870 bullpup subject, is there any reason it could not be converted to accept a 1100 ? I see they don't offer one for the 1100.

Saiga 12gauge Bullpup SEMI auto

Pump bullpups are annoying to me.
Here is a pic of my Saiga12 semi auto with removable mags an drum in a Kushnapup Bullpup conversion
Its works flawlessly and so compact yet has a full length barrel!
I have considered tradeing it lately since the coolness has worn off and i have no practical use for it?
Just haveing a problem deciding what its worth to me so i havent posted it formally for sale/trade yet.

Check out Black Aces Tactical. They make some awesome stuff based on mossbergs. They may make a bullpup.

That's really neat. Did you do the conversion and all the work yourself? I'd be interested for the right price.

Yes I got kit new in box from a member on here and did the conversion Myself.
Had a hicup on first run but got it all worked out with one tweek.
And im more of a trader so price would b a trade value prolly.

That's so cool! You get an unconverted saiga, and the stock, and that's it!
I've always wanted a Saiga, but was always put off by the whole conversion thing.
Why haven't I known about these?
PM me and let me know what you're interested in as far as trade, I'm a trader too, I usually just put the value at whatever I've got into stuff, I don't try to make money , but don't really want to lose my butt either, although, I will sometimes take a hit if I'm in a hurry. So yeah, PM me, let me know.
Sorry for the hijack, Dirty.

Cool shotgun, looks like it would work for 3-gun, if you were into it. I wonder if the Chineese Catamount Furies (Saiga clone) would also fit in that Kushnapup stock?
