Don`t recall ever seeing one before.

[@MilsurpGarage]

Wow. That’s saying something. Not a long production run for this design…..the nylon pump device never caught on. They were supposedly to fragile for that abuse pump mechanisms get.

[@davidcoudriet8439]

I freakin love it!

[@subterfusion4005]

They need to bring this back but in 10 gauge 3.5"

[@michaelodonnell1861]

Nice gun! I did the math, a $50 gun in 1955 would cost $561.27 today. Did Mossberg invent the adjustable choke? My Nephew has an old Mossberg with that adjustable choke, he loves it. My knee is feeling better already!😂😂😂

I used to love reading through the newspaper classifieds. Bought a couple of my old cars that way.

[@MilsurpGarage]

Yeah, now it’s Facebook marketplace…….somehow not the same.

[@jordanfischer872]

Have one awsome gun

[@MilsurpGarage]

Yes, if you look up Mossberg there is a picture of awesome.

[@chrischiampo7647]

Nice Shot Gun 😊😊😊😀❤️

[@djy0tub3r]

I just saw one of these last week at a pawn shop in Oklahoma City

[@MilsurpGarage]

Hope you bought it......

[@WalnutandSteel]

Nice!

[@stanandrews1741]

Good review, I have never even seen one of those until this video 😊👍

[@MilsurpGarage]

There are so many Mossbergs! Thanks for tuning in.

[@Relaxbadkneeadventures]

👍😉

[@monta247]

I own one that very nice and complete , it looks like somethine designed during world war II for military use.

[@MilsurpGarage]

Yeah, might have made a fine shotgun for the military.

For about $60 ea, I bought two "new manufactured " 308mags for an Ishapore jungle carbine copy from Numrichs. I would up having to blue the mags with dye and hand fit with regard to feed lips and catch. They work great now but ppl need to understand when buying from Nume's, there are many variables! Great vid, thx for sharing.

[@MilsurpGarage]

Very true. I’m just glad it fit and could be modified slightly to work. I love Numrich.

[@daxvasquez1523]

I have some 2 3/4" magnum shells they are old and kick pretty tough

[@MilsurpGarage]

Old shotgun ammo scares me....it always seems like it’s more explosive than its supposed to be....like it got hotter as it aged. I avoid it.

[@jwgbmp40]

There is probably some engineer at Mossberg with a bunch of boxes of old parts and gun stuff soakin up space in his office. In the bottom of one of those boxes is probaby 3 or 4 of those nylon pumps leftover, that nobody knows what they are for anymore.. lol

[@MilsurpGarage]

Well, there was supposedly a lifetime warranty…..

[@andreandrade5618]

Just picked up a 200-D for dirt cheap without the mag. Sucks they dont make anything bigger then 2 rounders🤦🏽‍♂️

[@MilsurpGarage]

Why are all these magazines missing?

[@ZombieSexmachine]

I've seen a 5 rounder listed on a gun site here in Canada.

[@jwgbmp40]

I think it sounds like that cause your snap cap shell is hollow..

[@MilsurpGarage]

That’s the 200 sound….a little less click, a little more clack.
