I have that gun. Experience made me not like the tactical stock. The pistol grip blocks the slide release button and it's was hard to get to. I changed it out with the regular stock. I love the 20" barrel for not snagging on everything in the woods but mine would not shoot at point of aim. Don't know if the shorter barrel didn't give enough barrel to look down or if it just shot "off"... But I had to put a red Dot on it ( which I hate). I much rather use the bead as the site... But was impossible for mine. That is a good price on it though

Ya. I liked how compact it was. Also thought it wasn't a bad price.

I have almost the same gun . Its a 500 turkey that came with a regular stock and I ordered the tactical one from mossberg. Yes the slide button is a little harder to get to but I have no problem with it.
Its the 24" barrel and everytime I think Im gonna upgrade all I have to do is go shoot it and I realize im not going to get a better pattern so I stick with it. That said if I had found the deal you did. I would jump on it right away.

Not a fan on the tactical stuff, but use a 20" barrel on my old Mossy 500 and absolutely love it!

Flush fit Carlson Extra Full and cheap 3" Rem Nitro 5's-6's and 3" WW Super X 5's-6's.  I hunt the woods and most shots are in that 25-30 yard range or less.
