I’m sorry this is a YouTube short so I can’t embed it. The owner is complaining about his Mossberg 940 with FTF.
I simply won’t have any gun that has FTF/FTE problems. And I’ve heard this a lot with Mossberg semiautomatic shotguns.
For the record, I’ve never seen any problems with Beretta semiautomatic shotguns, and I’ve shot them a lot.
He does say you can see more about this shotgun at this site.
Mossberg has never given me a shotgun to test so I can neither confirm nor deny the existence of the problems to which he speaks.
My 940 runs absolutely flawlessly. Light trap loads alternating with turkey magnum? No problem. The cheapest ammo you can find? No problem.
For whatever that’s worth as a data point.
Safety’s in the ideal place, plus no 922R issues with a long tube.
Clearly though some examples have issues. And that’s too bad.
My Mossberg 500 has had zero FTF/FTE. It takes any ammo I give it. I got it from original owner. He shot it very little, less than 50 shells.
