Push forward with your support hand and pull rearward with your firing hand, and you’ll mitigate recoil a good bit. Twelve gauge shotguns are always beasts in the recoil department, but proper mitigation techniques make it a good bit easier to handle. You’ll also feel a difference as you start unloading and the tube magazine gets light. You can certainly feel the difference between the Mossberg 590A1 guns and standard shotguns in the muzzle rise department. Sure it makes the gun feel unbalanced, but it also helps add weight and fight muzzle rise and recoil. This hefty feeling turns out to be a double-edged sword. Mossberg’s heavy-walled barrel, long magazine tube, and heat shield make the gun feel a little off-balance with a front-heavy feeling. This big heavy beast of a gun certainly feels hefty when loaded down with eight rounds of 12 gauge buckshot. As cool as Picatinny rails and optics can be, there is just something cool about wood and steel. The Retrograde series delivers a unique look that I can’t help but appreciate. The Retrograde design mixed old-school looks with modern capability. The 590A1 variant features a heat shield, ghost ring sights, and a parkerized finish. Retro is cool, and Mossberg released four Retrograde shotguns that wear wood furniture and a variety of finishes and features. From Retro AR15s to Colt bringing back the snake guns. The Retrograde series came to be because Retro is currently the ‘In’ thing in the firearms industry. For the average civilian, this is a home defense shotgun through and through. As a pump-action shotgun, these are as tough and as reliable as it gets. The 590A1 spares no expense and features a heavy-walled barrel, a metal trigger group, a bayonet lug, and most models wear ghost ring sights. The 590A1 is the combination of features demanded by the United States military for their pump-action shotgun. First, let’s address the point of the 590A1 as a shotgun, then we’ll talk about the Retrograde series. I have a two-part answer to this question.
