After over 50 years and over 10 million and counting–and the only pump action to be declared MilSpec–the Mossberg 500 has proven to be one of the most versatile and reliable shotgun platforms available, offering a model to fit every application, and every user from our households, to law agencies, to military worldwide.

A throwback to the look of our first tactical pumps, Retrograde models feature a walnut stock with checkered grip and vented recoil pad, and matching forend. Models also include an ambidextrous safety, dual extractors, positive steel-to-steel lockup, twin action bars, and an anti-jam elevator for smooth operation.

Retrograde buttstocks are walnut, with fine-line checkering for a firm, sure grip under various conditions.

590 and 590A1 Retrogrades feature a removable, vented heat shield.

590 and 590A1 Retrograde models feature a convenient magazine tube clean-out cap.

All Retrograde models have easy-to-reach ambidextrous top-mounted safeties.
