Well I went into a gun shop today and a Mossberg 935 followed me home. I have read so much on here about how well a 835 patterns that I thought I might try one at some point. The hold back was the recoil that everyone talks about on an 835. I saw the 935 and thought that this might tame the recoil some so, it came home with me. It is used but in good shape, 24 inch barrel, in Realtree Hardwoods camo. Now I need to polish the barrel, find a choke and see how she shoots.
I will try and get some pictures tomorrow night.

Congratulations! I really like my 935 and it's a patterning machine. I'd recommend that you just "deep clean" that barrel and see how it patterns before you do anything else. That may well be all that it needs.

Thanks,

I had  the same thing happen a year ago, only I came home with a new one.  I did the deep cleaning that Clark told me to do and love my 935, shooting machine!!

You will like that shotgun. I have the 835 model and I did that to be able to shoot 2 3/4 shells at pheasants. I would recommend a Limb Saver recoil pad to tame it down even farther than just the auto action.Hope it serves you well for a long time.

Sweet John, I'm ready to hear how that bad boy patterns.

A handload of hevi 7s and the SD, PG, or ST oughta make it eat the paper.

Awesome!  I'm right there with you...I've got one on the way via UPS myself, as we speak.  I've also got an SSX .670 on its way too.  Planning on shooting Hevi 3.5 #7's....hope they do good.

Where do I find out about this "deep cleaning"?  I've also got all the stuff on it's way from Brownell's to do the barrel polishing that is a sticky at the top of this forum.  Thought about waiting to do the polishing til after season and the initial, finding out what it likes, general patterning.  Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Agreed.  That is all my 870 needed.  But I cleaned it 4 times before I shot it.

Those 935's are good shotguns and they are selling them like crazy.
