Mossburg 12 ga. 8 shot 500 persuader
Review by Retired Farm boy from Langley on 3/28/2016

This thing ROCKS!!! I put in mostly Remington HD shells thru her and boy oh boy it was fun. On my first time with it I put 300 + rounds with not a hiccup!(bird&steelshot,slugs,non lethal rubber slugs) Feels tight and fun to shoot. My son & nephew liked it so much they bought one. Price was right and sits on the side of my headboard. Bought for home defense but a ball to shoot for fun! Thanks Classic for the best prices, many purchases thru you guys with great customer service! (At least 12-15 guns)

great gun for the money!
Review by Clinton on 12/13/2015

Although, I bought mine locally before finding this place....it is an excellent 12ga pump! I wish the forend wasn't so wobbly, but causes no issues. I have run alot of 2 3/4 game loads, and a few 00 buck magnum 3". This gun is an absolute hoot! I love it.

Finally pulled the trigger...
Review by Jazzyshooter on 11/24/2015

Finally pulled the trigger after I had been looking at this model for over a year. Needed something like this to a company my 9mm so went on and got it! Couldn't be any happier! Keeping the piston grip but picked up a Hogue stock, a side side and a vertical forearm. Will eventually get a light for it then that's about going to the range with it soon but I love the feel of it so far. Could not be more pleased at this point. Thanks Classic Firearms!

First shotgun owner and had been looking at this one for awhile and finally couldn't pass it up! First FFL done from anyone and great service and extremely fast shipping from Classic - 2 days!!! Can't wait to get this to the range and test it out! Great job and service from Classic and Bull Moose for the transfer!

Outstanding buy !

Could'nt pass this up
Review by JWT on 3/3/2014

I didn't give a review on this Persuader back last summer, shame on me. Any one who didn't take advantage of buying one of these missed the boat big time. My local gun shop couldn't come close to matching Classic's price. In fact the gun store said the price was less than their cost! One heck of a deal to say the least!

Fun Gun
Review by Payne on 1/25/2014

Had no problem out of box. All I needed this for was home defense and it shoots 2 3/4 Segmented rifled slugs fine (1600 velocity 1oz). Great for hunting also if you buy the extra stuff for it to make it hunting legal.

Great service & Great Shotgun
Review by Terrance on 6/16/2013

Great service from Classic Firearms got shotgun out in a few days. Took to the range today. Very smooth action, no problems what soever.

Awesome deal on an awesome gun!
Review by Jeff on 6/15/2013

Believe me, this gun rocks! I saw this gun at the our best local gun shop for $379... the Mossberg website had it for $429. I ALWAYS get a great deal and super fast shipping from CLASSIC. I always enjoy the posted Bible verse on their website! Keep rockin'! 1 Cor. 2:9

Our Fun Gun
Review by Big John on 6/3/2013

This is my 2nd Mossberg Persuader 12 gauge shotgun. I bought it to replace the one that was stolen a few months ago. Classic Firearms is a great company and the people are awesome. My Mossberg shipped fast and arrived ready to go. I took it out of the box loaded it up with 8 shells stepped out the back door of my house and blew away a box that I had set up in the shrubs. My wife could not wait to get her hands on it, she blasted the box right off the shrubs. We call it our FUN GUN. Thank you Classic.

Smooth Transaction
Review by Michael on 5/20/2013

Great Service from both Classic Firearms & Santa, Customer Service Rep at Mossberg.
Would Highly Recommend Both Classic Firearms & Mossberg!

Great Shotgun
Review by david on 5/15/2013

Take off the Pistol grip, had Tactical stock, poof!! Instant Shot Gun for under $300 that can be used in 3 Gun competitions. With an 8 round capacity this shot gun can easily be used in 3 Gun matches. Most 3 gunners use Auto loads but I’m shooting in a He Man match this summer that requires a pump. I didn’t want to spend a lot for a new shot Gun so this will have to do. So for it’s working great!!!

Review by Robert on 5/6/2013

Received my Mossberg 500 in exactly 7 days time. Constant notification emails from Classic Firearms kept me up-to-date on my weapons whereabouts. This shotgun was an excellent deal for its price and I can't wait to take it to the range upon my return from Afghanistan. Thank you Classic Firearms, another satisfied customer.

Very cool
Review by Michael on 5/4/2013

Great shotgun and a great seller. I know these are great for self-defense, etc; but for me I just had to add it to my collection for the cool factor.
I easily added a Hugue grip and fore end which dramatically improved the overall feel.
Love this shotgun and always have had great luck with Classic.

Item is perfect and for the price it can't be beat
Review by Yoandri on 5/1/2013

This was my second order with Classic and just like my first order, it shipped fast and the price is good . I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I have recommended two of my friends to order from your guys great service. I have been looking for this Mossberg for a while and finally had the money to get one.

great
Review by ssbn626 on 4/22/2013

As expected,good service,great product,love it

excellent product
Review by Lance on 4/8/2013

Excellent gun for the money. The heat shield is of the bolt on variety instead of clip on. Very nice overall performance.

Great gun
Review by Chris on 2/7/2013

Got this shotgun in yesterday. Took it to the range today. Functioned flawlessly. I replaced the pistol grip with a standard mossberg 500 butt stock. This is a great price compared to other retailers. I see they raised the price after I bought it. Glad I got before.

Great Deal
Review by Matthew on 12/8/2012

You know, I pay so much attention to the other reviews on Classic Arms that I can't believe that I forgot to leave one myself! Anyhow, right off the bat I can say with confidence "this Mossberg works!" What else can be said about this classic? I took it out to the range without even cleaning it first and it runs and runs, all different types of cartridges. If you value your wrists, you will probably swap out the pistol grip with a factory stock. Slightly large for someone of my stature (5'7), but at $250, it is the best deal on the internet. Classic is a pleasure to deal with. A+++

Great gun!
Review by Yates on 9/24/2012

Purchased this in June, shipped to my ffl a week later. The gun came in perfect condition as described, and functioned flawlessly as any 12 gauge should. Thanks Classic!

Great home defense gun
Review by Brandon on 9/17/2012

An excellent gun for home defense, much more maneuverable than with a full stock. I recommend using low-recoil shells though.

Good Shotgun for the Money
Review by Chucky SOUTH on 8/6/2012

I like the Mossberg Persuader 12 gauge, and have always wanted one. Now that I have one I like it even more, but be warned without a stock this gun isn't worth much for more than making noise or home defense. So I ordered a 2nd Gen. Blackhawk SPECOPS adjustable stock to top off the whole deal. Now I got one heck of a practical and effective home/personal defense shot gun. As far as the quality goes Classic Firearms did a great job describing these shot guns. Considering the 5 round JIC series of Mossbergs out of most stores is around $320+ before taxes and paperwork this gun is well worth the price. Thanks Classic Firearms!!!, and get another order of those DRACO'S and Palmetto State Armory M-4's in will you? God Bless...

GREAT DEAL
Review by Raymond on 7/9/2012

Classic Firearms has the lowest price on Mossberg Persuaders, no one sells them cheaper! I bought (3). I am very happy with my purchase. They shipped my guns fast. The Persuader 12 gauge is a perfect gun for home protection or urban close quarters combat. The pistol grip and short length allow you to manuver through tight hallways and stairways without hitting your gun against the wall. I recommend using RIO Royal Buck low recoil buckshot with this gun, it has all the power, but with less recoil. Now is the time to stock up on everything! We have a current government administration that is attacking our right to free speech, religion, and right to bear arms.

MOSSBERG 500
Review by chrisart47 on 6/16/2012

Compact fast and devastating!....forget about 500 SW revolvers and 10mm or even 44 mag, a big rifled slug out of this monster-zombie killer will rock your world!
Dinosaurs...BEWARE!
The price is better than Walmart.
