Mossberg 500 Barrel question

[Sidewinder6]

Their web sight does not seem to have what I am in the market for so I thought I would put the question here:

I am looking for an 18.5" barrel with both sights (front and rear) mounted on the barrel itself rather than having to have a set of rear sights mounted to the receiver. I have seen this for 870's but have yet to locate a source for Mossbergs. Any ideas where I can look?

AFAIK, Mossberg doesn't make that particular combination for the 500. In any case, it's not listed in their 2008 Annual. Interestingly, they do make an accessory barrel for the 930 auto in that cofiguration, though that one is ported. Also interesting is that Mossberg makes that specific barrel for the 870.

Sidewinder: I just purchased that exact barrel from Numerich Arms (AKA: e-gunparts.com). It is a factory Mossberg barrel, and comes in the factory Mossberg packaging. Numerich has carried them for years. The sights mounted on the barrel are manufactured by Williams Gunsight Corp, and they are very nice.

Mossberg still makes this configuration, but hasn't cataloged it in many years.

Let me know if you need any additional assistance.

You sure called that right doorgunner. Here it is:

I hadn't seen these in quite a while. Thanks for setting the record straight.
