Maverick 88 12ga

[Cajun_Chuck]

Are the Mossberg 500/590 tactical upgrade parts compatible? I see that there are a bunch on eBay like this, but I have sent a few e-mails w/o responses and figured that someone on here would be able to give me a definite yes or no.

I was interested in the collapsible stock, due to the fact that my wife is a little petite (5'0, 110lbs) and can not get good hand placement on the stock components. She wants to feel comfortable hand placement before she fires some 3" Mag 00 through it. I like the Weaver front grip b/c I can slide a light onto it.

Can anyone help? Thanks a bunch.

Damn impulse buying! Wish medicdad would have posted that mossy about a week ago!!! Well..we will see if it fits, but if you've gotten stuff and it fits...I am not all that worried! Thanks for the heads up nola_

I got a different kit that was advertised as a Maverick 88 tactical upgrade. Well, the stock fit. The forend did not, due to the fact that I had picked up the Mav88 from Academy (not Wal-mart) which contains a solid one piece synthetic forend attached to the dual action slidebars and not the action slide tube assembly (like the walmart one & standard on the Mossberg500). The tube assembly can be changed out with the proper parts and the shotty made to accept everything else that the M500 does, but by the time the money had been spent, it would have been easier and about the same price to just buy a Mossberg 500. Meh! Now I know.
