Mossberg 940 Pro Shotgun Review Featuring Jerry Miculek

[@robo2901]

Jerry is such a great, fun and humble guy. What a brilliant move by Mossberg to bring him in.

[@dubyamiyami]

Tremendous to have the legend Jerry in a review, that thumb safety sure makes a Mossberg appealing!

[@mark12ga18]

Absolutely loved the in depth review of the internal parts, Jerry’s modifications and the years worth of shooting knowledge between you two guys. Thanks for the great video Steve!

Lena is absolutely awesome and her laugh just makes me smile for days

[@jeremyangelo83]

Thousands of rounds, usually over 1000 between cleanings. The 940 jm is sweet! I use mine for sporting clays, not what it was meant for but it works for me. Very happy with it! It is very forgiving on the maintenance if your lazy on cleaning it'll still run. My buddy shoots a cz and cleaning is much more critical or he has malfunctions. IC factory choke is all i need and a little shiming for a lefty and i was breaking high 70s low 80s with this jm pro.

[@gdwilliams92]

I was verry impressed with this gun. I think we need a shot gun showdown 940 vs sx4 please.

[@DamazViccar]

I’m in this exact dilemma. What’s your result?

[@patrickbink4617]

I am so glad to have both of you reviewing the 940 JM PRO together. What a team! I have so much respect for both of you, Steve and Jerry, and trust your judgements and critiques. I had the please of attending a training class lead by Jerry (and Lena) and look forward to the day I get to me you, Steve. I own the JM PRO and LOVE IT! During the class I actually got to shoot Jerry's magna-ported shotgun! Shoots so flat. He wouldn't let me keep it :( Great experience.

[@TargetFocusedLife]

Thanks for watching, Patrick. Training by Jerry is second to none. I also had the pleasure of shooting some content with Lena as well, stay tuned! I am sure our paths will cross at some point. I appreciate your support! 👊 Stay Target 🎯Focused (Hebrews 12:1-3)

[@dougfarrington3104]

Great review with tremendous insight into the "why" for the various modifications and upgrades from the 930 to the 940 Pro Series. And, of course, having Jerry there to be the one to offer that insight was straight-up amazing! He's a class act and an unbelievable wealth of knowledge! Keep up the great work!

[@ajbalbin1464]

Just the review that I was waiting for. Great review as always! It was awesome that Jerry Miculek was in the video as well!

[@richwilcox9564]

I recently bought this Mossberg 940 pro - field version. So…28” barrel, black synthetic stock. Plain jane version. I only have 100 rounds through it. So far my biggest take away is that it kicks hard compared to other semi autos. Thought it would be softer. Really like the stock adjustments. Trigger is fine. Like the interchangeable frt sight pipes. Don’t like the chokes that come with it. Need to shoot it more.

[@warrenharrison9490]

What are you shooting? Buck, slug, #7, 2-3/4", 3"?

[@colemyers5015]

You are such a good shotgun reviewer keep the good work up

[@ESikora12]

Being a lefty, the ability to change cast on this one combined with being a gasser makes it interesting. Add in the top safety and it’s immediately on my list! Here’s to hoping some of the stores around me like Scheels or the smaller gun shops in the area will actually carry them

[@paulmoss7940]

Same, got the waterfowl model. You will like it.

[@MSPubducks]

Right?!?! Being a lefty is a bitch. I was given this 940pro wf and am in love. The top safety is key as well as the oversized ch and br

[@TT-ij5qe]

I'm a lefty and I know that it's going to work. Mossberg has started to release a bunch of them.

[@TheFittedRockStar]

I think it's great that Mossbreg is still a family owned business!!!

[@halfdollar86]

It’s almost Dove season, which means I have new shotgun fever. We shoot clays in late summer and fall as well as take customers Pheasant and Quail hunting. I have a SX4 and an SBE3. I love my SX4. It’s been a game changer for shotgun shooting for me. I like the SBE3 as well. But I prefer the SX4. Trigger is better, recoil is less. Going forward I want to stay with The gas system. I would love to be able to try the A400, 940 Pro and Maxus 2 all at the same time to be able to pick one. The 940 Pro looks pretty appealing to me.

[@donteboone5222]

I bought one of these shotguns because I was a big fan of Jerry and how he talked about the model in the past. It was then after shooting it I realized my skill level is extremely low compared to what the shotgun was built for lol

[@stephenrice4554]

You and Jerry should come out to play now and again , detailed review , love the thumb safety . Great video 👍🇬🇧

[@RitterRundown]

Another great review and another gun I want to add to the safe. Great to see you and Jerry together. Two great shooters.

[@TheFlyingFatMan]

Great video and review! One thing Is love to see added to your reviews is the drop at comb, drop at heel and cast dimensions on them, as well as those at both ends of the drop adjustment range with factory supplied shims on guns that can use them. It seems like what works best for me after building a custom stock for my skb 505 is 2.5” DAH, and 1.75" DAC, with 14.25" LOP, with a fair bit of cast off, and a shorter grip radius. I have yet to find an off the shelf autoloader that hits those marks, and many manufacturer websites do a piss poor job of informing potential customers of their fit specs, as well as designed point of impact 50/50, 60/40 70/30, etc. (browning being the only exception I've found).

[@josephkool8411]

Looks very appealing let hope it doesn't have same issues as the 930's. So far it looks like it does

[@MrEmb007]

Finally some mossberg love

[@ayegame2424]

loved my 930 jm pro. had a lot of issues with the bolt and not going into battery after about 500 rounds and could never get it solved and completely reliable after that. sad because i enjoyed it so much. upgraded to a a400 extreme plus after.

[@ca2129]

I love my JM 940 pro, would like to buy the 28” field barrel for it. Have used my 24” for trap events but not enough barrel or choke at 27 yard line, so I use my getto rigged thunder ranch 590 with a 835 barrel on it; which smokes em and picks up chips in Annie Okly like dream.

[@peadookie]

Ya know, for being such an obviously branded bought-and-sold ad, the conversation between you two didn't seemed very forced most of the time and you could tell you actually had some fun, which made the video actually kinda fun. Either way, it was very informative, so job well done, even for a product placement vid!

[@TargetFocusedLife]

Well I hope it seemed natural, but in full disclaimer, there was no compensation from Mossberg. Jerry is sponsored by Mossberg but this video just cost me money!

[@geoffreythompson7378]

Great review, great video, and I am sold. Like how you guys went through all the enhancements. The shooting was an appetizer, would love to have seen you two go at it for a solid 5 minutes of film.

[@tipsyrippers]

Great review and video Awesome guest. However I had a 935 cleaned it all the time. It was absolute garbage wouldn’t cycle shells, would Jam all the time and would have to really rip the bolt open to get it unjammed. It shot great though when it did shoot. Also wasn’t a huge fan of the top tang safety I contacted mossberg about the issue and they said being the gun was to old they couldn’t do anything about it. Sold it and bought myself an SX4 and never going to buy another Mossberg ever!!! The old ones where Ok these new ones are way overpriced for how junk they are

[@1HunnidHUNT]

Just bought a 930 cause it fell under a YT video for top 10 best shotguns 2022 and a pawn shop had it decked out took it home shot it and I have to rack it back every shot so basically not semi firing is junk.

Great stuff with JM! You earned a subscribe!

[@morganmcintire2853]

I have a 930 JM pro, very cool gun. But couldn't keep the thing running. It would jam, short-cycle, stovepipe all the time. If I completely disassembled the gun, cleaned and oiled everything it would run real slick for maybe 1 box (25) but it quickly ended up gummed up and would short cycle every 6-10 rounds. I've had it worked on by mossberg, qualified gunsmiths, parts replaced etc. Now it just sits in my safe. I hope this 940 has these issues worked out.

[@morganmcintire2853]

@@pauldalton5837 funny enough I actually installed that on my 930 a couple years ago. When I installed it at first I thought that it fixed the issue. (probably because I did a meticulous cleaning job when installing it). But it only slightly increased the interval between malfunctions. Still jammed on average once per box. Glad that it worked for you though. 👍

[@nastorino]

@12:05 Jerry says the trigger over travel screw can be purchased and installed into the Field Pro and Waterfowl model. After speaking to Mossberg on 11/16/2022 they do not offer the over travel screw for sale. It comes installed in the JM Pro only. Response from Mossberg CS email: "Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, that screw is not available for accessory purchase to be added to any model that does not include it. I would not have any info to provide. Sincerely, Customer Service Team O.F. Mossberg & Sons, Inc."

[@briantrent1155]

Only place i can find them is at midway. I got the jm940 pro a while back with 24 inch barrel. My knee has issues and i retired from 3 gun and moved to sporting clays. I did ok with the 24 inch barrel but had to get a beretta a400 for the 28 inch barrel. Before getting the a400 I contacted mossberg to see if they sold a 28 inch barrel and they said no. Now they have a 940 pro field verson with 28 inch barrel. Just ordered it from midway. I hope it does good

[@jamesscallyiii27]

Being retired military, having spent 25+ yrs in the Army & shooting the M16/M4 platform with a thumb safety for a right hand shooter, the Mossberg top safety is directly compatible to how I hunt waterfowl & why I've preferred Mossberg shotguns

[@stone-heart4698]

Does anyone know where you can pick one up right now? I have not been able to find one for awhile now!

The biggest gripe I've ever had about tang safeties is my short, fat thumbs. I can't reach it without taking my hand off the grip. One of the reasons why I stuck with Remingtons for as long as I have.

I like your energy and presentation. Good video. I want to buy one of those guns.

I wish the 940 pro came with a longer barrel and it could have 28” for skeet and trap. Although the barrels are interchangeable in the 940s, berg won’t sell you just the barrel at the moment.

[@Benwaldner3298]

Which is better Winchester sx4 vs the mossberg 940 pro field

How does this perform for sporting clays? Is the 24” barrel an issue? My coach is emphatic about barrel length for shot speed, saying 30” or 32” is preferred?
