The two shotguns have been extremely popular over the years, and many of you own, or have owned one them at one time.

 

Mossberg 500 Persuader Retrograde - Available with an 18.5 inch (6 shot) cylinder bore barrel; topped with single front brass bead sight; blued metal finish; and full-length walnut stock and corncob forend.

MSRP - $504

 

Mossberg 590A1 - Built to MIL-SPEC standards, this 9-shot 590A1 has 20 inch heavy-walled, cylinder bore barrel complete with a heat shield, bayonet lug and Ghost Ring sights.  This retro model also has a Parkerized finish; metal trigger assembly; metal safety button; and wears a full-length walnut stock and corncob forend.

MSRP - $902

 

 

Personally, I like the 590 with walnut furniture and Ghost Sights.  I realize it has some upgrades, nothing too wild though, so I was rather surprised to see the price just south of $1000.
