Editor’s Note: The Mossberg 590A1 retrograde takes one of the most durable and proven shotguns in the world and dresses it up to the nines. Classic style walnut furniture gives this workhorse shotgun an old-school appeal without sacrificing any of its ability to tackle any job.

By The Numbers

Accuracy
A fixed cylinder bore choke and 20" barrel limit the ability of this gun somewhat, but it patterns well.
Reliability
Possibly the most durable and reliable pump-action shotgun ever made.
Customization
There is plenty of aftermarket for the 590A1, like most of Mossberg's offerings.
Ergonomics
A long length-of-pull might turn off some smaller shooters.

FINAL VERDICT

"Mossberg’s Retrograde series brings back a degree of class to the modern tactical shotgun. Ditching plastic furniture for a classy wood look, the Retrograde reminds us of the beauty of shotguns but doesn’t leave out the reliability. Yeah, the 590A1 is a bit pricey compared to other Retrograde models, but it’s worth it. You won’t be disappointed with this in your gun safe." - Travis Pike
