I already decided on getting a Mossberg 590 as my first boomstick. You just gave me a whole new world of ideas of what I can do to customize it. I ended up buying a 43x after being inspired by your builds. Great content!

Did you get one?
I’ve owned my mossberg 590a1 for 2-3 years. And 2/3 of the information in this video was new to me. Such a versatile weapon. I now plan on getting that conversion for the ar/pistol grip. That is bad ass.
This is what I've been waiting for! Love your videos! Keep up the good work!
I admit that I haven't watched much of your content. However, the content I have watched has been great. I don't watch a wide variety of guntubers, so this might not mean much but the production quality of your content is more than superior to similar stuff I've seen. When I discovered your channel, it was your video covering your AR-15 build. I can't say I was expecting much, but I was absolutely blown away. I hope to be able to do stuff like this myself one day. I'll continue to watch and enjoy your content for as long as you release it.
Bro...awesome work. This video is amazing. Hopefully you enjoy the shotgun and the rest of the Vagn Comp work for many years to come. Keep up the amazing work, we're all rooting for you!

Thank you guys so much!!! 🥹 let’s do another build one day!!
This channel is so epic. This guy puts stuff on his guns I didn’t even know existed lol. I have the 590a1, i might actually get that voa handguard. That looks fire
Starting to become one of my favorite channels! Keep up the good work!
Geez your production value is insane. We could all take notes. Great stuff man!
Super clean! Love the vids keep up the great work
Another great vid @Gunmen. Just bought that Amazon EDC belt after watching your vid on them. Its my 4th EDC belt and definetly my favorite.
Crazy that you dropped this video today, I woke up today and was searching on KZread for stuff to finish my personal build with this same gun

I have been waiting for this video!! Thank you for the shotgun build😩🥲so beautiful
New subscriber that came just in time. Caught your 590 review and just before your AK build. Lovin it
Wonderful build. I also run the mesa stock system and love it. Great vid
Ive had my 18inch Rem Police model from vang since 2016 and love it. And 2 years ago Me and Vang Comp did a SBS build and it is awesome. Cool Vid and big ups to Cody @VangComp
Gun man you have be come one of my favorite KZreadrs because you show everything and you don’t gatekeep stuff
New here. Just subscribed! Great video. I have always wanted a 590A1 but this video is further indication that the 590A1 Vang Comp I had no idea about is a super great option! Keep this up the video was amazing & packed with a lot of useful information.
Thank you for the build video sir!
Great content. the whole thing is so professional and well done. Keep up the great work. I signed up for kit page and will be ordering some new merch.
Except for my preference for Magpul stocks, those Vang Comp boomsticks are fantastic. The barrel porting alone seems like a really cool but also functional feature. I love my 590A1. It's got a 6 shot mag tube and has a bead sight. Pretty bare bones and simple but that simplicity makes it quick and easy to aim. Nothing wrong with ghost ring sights, my Remington 870 Tactical has them and they're perfectly adequate but sometimes simple works too. But that build is top tier for sure. If the zombie apocalypse comes, you'll be set!!! Edit: Now that you mention it, though I like the position of the safety on the Mossberg shotguns over the Remington or Winchester pump guns, I don't think I've ever really used it other than to cycle it just for the sake of cycling it a few times. It's still very tight to this day even after over two years of shooting it. But I shoot left handed as I'm blind in my right eye and the slide release is perfect for a lefty shooter with the standard stock or Magpul stock vs. the pistol grip IMO. That's just my preference and it might be more a lefty concern as your video showed no real issue using the slide release right handed.
Great video, keep 'em coming!
After this video i need one such badass setup 🤘
Great video! Thank you for sharing!
Always really clean, thought out builds
Love the vide! No BS, just the facts.
This channel is amazing ! Maybe Benelli M4 next ???
you get a like just on the B-Roll alone............. thank you for the great content
I just bought this shotgun today!
Also I forgot to mention . . . was going to ask What's with the Silence of the Lambs logo? But then it dawned on me when I recalled your motto "seek the light." HA! Very cool, very creative! Love that. Good for you! I'll be wearing your merch soon.
Nice, nice job job taming that beast!
Nice build man
Goated firearms channel! Would love to see a Blackout Defense Quantum Mk2 build or at least your opinions on it.
Aridus Industries has a CROM mount. Its a low profile mount with an rmr footprint that also has a a peep (or half peep) sight to co-witnis with your front sight blade. After having one mounted for years now, I cannot see how they havent dominated the market.
I’m a huge fan super excited for the USAC Moth video. Website is 100% worth the subscription
That pressure pad looks like it would be the same exact placement as the tail clicky on the flashlight. You can ditch the wires and possible failure by just using the standard button.
I didn't know Idubbbz had a gun channel! I can't wait to get my Mossberg 590 man.
S&b 12 pellet is excellent stuff for great price 🔥💥👍👍 nice setup. Funny the maverick 88 would almost be better ergonomics for safety but just leaving it off and running "cruiser ready" its very safe in storage but ready for action with a single pump
No goon tape lol I love your setups you are one of the best keep it up brother.
Very nice !
590. Smart 👍👍

590- A1, even smarter.
Check out the Shoten Armory extended slide release if you end up finding the grip change to be bothersome
You should check out Defender Tactical. They make a sight adapter with the RMR footprint as well as g17 iron sights. They have a few products for mossberg. I don’t have the adapter yet but I have their safety sight, mini shell adapter/follower kit and their mag cap rail for a weapon light.
ur channel is great
So what is the rope/'string at the front of the pic rail going around the reciever for?
Did you consider the Crom International alluminum adapter? It allows for a folding stock due to rear picattiny mount.
The intro lookin like movie 🍿
When you added the shell carrier what did that do to the OEM ghost ring? Basically make it obsolete?
Awesome
How was you able to push the buffer tube all the way in. I have the same things you do, but I still have a couple of threading left. Do I force it in ??
Thanks for the opinion on the ACRO. I was on the fence. Mine is the 590a1 spx.. I used the ERGO m-lok aluminum fore end. Mine also wears a 600 series Surefire. LOL the m9 bayo was a bit much but hey WTH it came with it.

The Aimpoint Acro does not mount directly to a picatinny rail btw. It mounts to the proprietary acro interface and you need a picatinny adapter.
Really nice tactical shotgun build and commentary! I believe that Mossberg makes the best pump-actions shotguns. For me, the pistol grip angle is the standout. It's much better than the grip angle you usually find with factory set-ups which are typically too acute. I noticed that because of your higher red dot sight position, you've adopted a chin weld rather than a cheek weld shooting technique. Have you found any shortcomings with this?
did you swap your heat shield for the strike VOA or does the stock one work?

Scalarworks sync/03. Low as you can go with a shotgun red dot. 👌 love mine. Ditch the modlight and use a unity tactical mlok hot button.

@@VangComp yeah I run both buttons on my rifles but I’ve never ran one on a shotgun. Was able to get a an older surefire light 618 i believe. 🤔 Damn $90 bucks for a vang comp. 👍
This shotgun is not affordable for the average American 🇺🇸. Vang Comp is top tier for modifications. Just get a 590-A1 with ghost ring sights,shell carrier,light and you will be good. If you want to put a red dot on it that’s good to but it’s best to have co witness sights.
I'm new to guns. Should i but the 590a1 with Magpul stock or just get the regular 590a1 and build it like this? I do like what you've done. Can the 590a1 be built this way? Thank you
What was the picatiny you used?
I wish Vang Comp sold just the 18.5" ported barrel for the 590A1 separate. I have a mid 2000's police issue 18.5" 590A1 with the same front sight post as their barrels and it'd make for a nice modification. I'm definitely going to get one of the Mesa Tactical stock adapters for my 20" 590A1 though.

Just surfin some youtube and saw your 590A1 build, I thought wait I have a 590A1 with ghost sites and your build is super bad@ss! so I signed up for your lifetime Kit page! I think I will VangComp my gun barrel and mesa/handgrip/ BCM/Magpul my stock like yours, No light but a laser for me! Will look more at your other builds!
aridus industries have what they call the CROM, but only for the rmr for Mossberg. they have it for the aimpoint for berretta and Remington
And is the hand guard called the “VOA hand guard for mossberg 500”

Looks sweet, but I’ve been told Shotguns have heavy recoil, I just got into long rifle platform like 3 years ago, but I’m a bit shy of shotguns.
New to gun everything. Are these attachments Cali legal?

Add a kynshot buffer tube with the mesa tactical adapter and it’ll be smooth as butter. Kynshot buffer tube is a hydrolic recoil absorbing system…been running it for years it’s amazing.
I like the idea of the pistol grip, but does it make it awkward to manipulate the safety?
I’m building a Mossberg 500 with the same adapter. I will be adding on a BCM pistol grip, and buffer tube. My question is did the mesa adapter come with a castle nut to attach the tube? Or would I have to buy it separate?

Is this the 18 inch barrel?
Shoten armory has an extended action release
I understand the pluses of an ar style stock for control with one hand and keeping hands in but it makes using the safety impractical
The 18.5 500/90 XS tactical/persuaders were the best cqb pumps out,take the shell caddy off the stock side velco it,toss a limbsaver classic slip/sportwrap on a classic AR style stocks just dremel off excess plastic on the collapse lever best stocks ever any LOP/☁️💨🐌,but most import leave the oem mossy pump straps are best weightless VG/handstop as hand/arm hits are common in gunfights,also cut/zip n S-wrap some pipe insulation for comfy cheek riser works great on S2K as well
Vang Comp - "pistol grip shotgun? Use a Mossberg!"
Thats some serious LARPing right there... 😂😂
Unity Tactical Hot Button - MLOK, no need for an adapter for your light button.

Pistol grip prevents quad loads which is the most powerful shotgun tactic imo. You should consider learning it.

I bought and installed the Mesa Tactical AR Grip and buffer tube adapter. What a POS, cheap cast metal, uninstalled it, and realized it had cracked when installed. The slide lock access is a real issue and takes away from the function of the shotgun, would not install the modification.

Is "phrasing" still a thing?

Thats why you don't put a pistol grip on a shotgun, you can manipulate the safety with a normal configuration.
Spending 500 on a barrel for a gun that cost 800 is absolutely insane. Where do I buy one?
