Mossberg 835 Shotgun

The receiver is machined with a Shield RMSc-pattern optic cut. This allows for direct mounting of compatible micro-dot sights without needing an adapter plate.

No, the optic is pre-mounted but not zeroed. You will need to sight it in at the range to match your specific ammunition and point of impact before heading into the field.

While it is optimized for turkey hunting with a specialized choke and short 20-inch barrel, it is a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun. You can use it for other applications, though you may want to swap the choke tube depending on the shot size and pattern density required for your target.

The 835 is a robust, full-sized shotgun weighing 7.5 lbs, which helps manage recoil better than lighter, ultra-compact alternatives. However, because it is a 12-gauge designed for high-performance turkey loads, you should still expect significant felt recoil.

The stock is a fixed synthetic design. It does not feature adjustable comb height or length-of-pull spacers, so it is best suited for shooters who fit standard shotgun dimensions.

Yes, the synthetic furniture and finish are designed for field use. While no finish is immune to deep scratches, this pattern is specifically applied to withstand the rigors of turkey hunting environments.
