TacStar Shotgun Rear Pistol Grip Mossberg 500 590 600 Maverick Black ABS Polymer 1081152 UPC 751103011522
Product Description
The TacStar® Shotgun Rear Pistol Grip (SKU: 1081152 / UPC: 751103011522) converts full-stock Mossberg and Maverick 12-gauge pump-action platforms into compact, highly maneuverable defensive and breaching weapons systems. Engineered specifically for close-quarters operational envelopes, home defense, and vehicle staging, this rear grip delivers maximum point-and-shoot retention without adding unnecessary bulk or weight to your tactical shotgun.
Precision injection-molded from specialized high-impact ABS thermoplastic polymer, the TacStar grip provides exceptional tensile strength, impact absorption, and structural rigidity under heavy 12-gauge magnum and buckshot recoil impulses. The exterior is molded with an anti-glare, non-slip textured finish that is entirely impervious to harsh bore solvents, modern CLP formulas, saltwater exposure, and extreme operating temperatures. Internal structural reinforcement ribs prevent flex and maintain rigid contact against the shotgun receiver tang.
Ergonomically tuned with a rearward rake angle and contoured backstrap swell, the grip redistributes recoil forces across the shooter's palm and wrist to mitigate muzzle flip and enhance rapid-action cycling speed. Integrated deep finger grooves guarantee a positive master grip even when operating with tactical gloves or in wet conditions. The assembly features an integrated sling attachment point at the bottom rear and ships complete with a dedicated steel receiver mounting bolt and locking washer for immediate workbench installation.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:*
Fitment Matrix: Direct fit for Mossberg 500, 590, 590A1, 590 Shockwave, 600, and Maverick 88 12-gauge pump-action shotguns. CRITICAL: Incompatible with Remington 870, Winchester 1200/1300, and semi-automatic Mossberg 930/940 platforms. Federal law mandates that converting a standard factory-stocked shotgun to a pistol-grip-only configuration must maintain an overall length (OAL) of 26 inches or greater and a minimum barrel length of 18 inches to stay fully compliant outside of NFA SBS registration. Torque the provided receiver mounting bolt to 25–30 in-lbs using medium-strength blue threadlocker.
- Ensure the host firearm is completely clear, magazine tube visually and physically empty, and the action locked open to inspect the chamber.
- Remove the factory buttplate or recoil pad screws using a standard screwdriver, then insert a long flathead screwdriver or socket driver down the stock cavity to remove the factory stock bolt and washer.
- Align the TacStar rear pistol grip to the rear tang and mating contour of the Mossberg receiver, ensuring flush contact with no gap.
- Insert the supplied mounting bolt and lock washer into the grip well and thread into the receiver; torque securely to 25–30 in-lbs using medium-strength threadlocker.
- Cycle the action, verify smooth slide travel, conduct a dry-fire function test, and check the positive actuation of the receiver-mounted or trigger-guard safety before operational staging.
