A shotgun with an optic for defense at home is the best. Optics on a shotgun are becoming more popular, even if you’re still unsure. They aid in rapid target acquisition, just like any firearm. Mossberg’s 590S pump-action shotgun line now has two optic-ready options. This makes the shotgun even more impressive. Mossberg Optic Ready 590S pump-action series shotguns Two optic-ready options have been added to the 590S pump-action series. The shotguns come in a choice of sizes: 18.5-inch and 20-inch. They can accept direct mounts of red dots sights straight out of the box. The optics-ready options are made using the Shield RMSc footprint and include a cover plate to protect the sight from being removed. The 18.5-inch model has a cylinder bore barrel and a front bead view. The 20-inch model has an AccuChoke compatible barrel (Cylinder choke tube and front bead sight included), front forend, and M-LOK compatible end. Each model is available at a MSRP of $704.00. These are the only models in the 590S range that have optic-ready capabilities. The current availability of optic-ready models does not include the Shockwave models. It remains to be seen if this will change in the future. Editor’s note: Consider a red dot sight with a ring/dot-reticle when choosing a red dot sight to use with your shotgun. The ring/dot-reticle acts as a bracket to adjust the shotgun’s spread from a distance. The two new models are compatible with optics and have the same specifications and functions as the rest.
