Mossberg 535

[WGumz]

AJ or whoever, What have you heard about these? I have been looking all around for an 835, matte finish, black synthetic and a matte slug barrel with rifle sights. Everything I have been finding in rifle sights is the blued finish. I noticed that the 535 is close to the same thing as the 835 and it has what I am looking for. I had an 835 a couple of years ago and sold it for money for a browning gold. I don't like shoving heavy loads in the gold, so I am wanting another 835 or something close or comparable price. Any info on the this would be appreciated. Thanks, Wade

While the 535 may be closer to what you want, the gun is just a Mossberg 500 with a 3.5" chamber. The 835/935 both have huge bore diameters that allow them to handle the large 10 gauge equivalent payloads more efficiently and effectively. They have shorter shotstrings and throw better patterns.

Personally, I would go with the 835. Going with the 535 would be like wanting a new vechicle with a tow package in charcoal color, and deciding on one with a V6 because it came in the color you wanted. Even though the V8 model will tow better and more but only came in black.

You can always use a spray on finish to make it dull looking.

Thanks AJ for the info. Good way with words. I agree after reading more about it today. I think I may be ordering it tomorrow. Will see what happens. Thanks, Wade
