JIC being 'Just in case'

Mossberg have released a few versions of this:

They say
The heart of the JIC™ package is the venerable 12 gauge Mossberg® 500® Pump-Action. Fitted with a compact 18-1/2” barrel and rugged synthetic pistol grip and forearm, it’s offered in your choice of the blued Cruiser® model, the Mariner®, or the Sandstorm™ featuring our proprietary Marinecote™ finish for employment in or around harsh marine environments. Each is sealed in a re-sealable clear bag, and is packaged in a heavy-duty, waterproof synthetic carrying-tube complete with re-sealable top and nylon carrying strap. You’ll also find convenient accessories including the waterproof ‘Survival Kit-In-A-Can’ (Cruiser® model), or the durable multi-tool and serrated lock-back knife combo pack with cordura case (Mariner® model).
I say, pity we are restricted by length as this is a nice idea however I would prefer a folding stock to a pistol grip for a bit more control.

I've got one like this. Its a Winchester 1300 Pump with a 24.5" Cylinder bored barrel and fixed sights, you can get it on a Shotgun Cert. Came with a 28" barrel and chokes for clays.

Would be an ideal SHTF Gun :good:

That is a sweet little shotgun. Some pumps are so cheap that it is almost no brainer to buy one and chop the barrel. Great for Cowboy Action Shooting.

A long time ago pre Hungerford I had a Mossberg 500 with the slugster 24" barrel with battle sights and a 5 round mag tube , had to get the mag tube crimped after Hungerford when I eventualy sold it the guy who bought it turned up at my house in a red Rolls Royce , I remeber him saying this will get some attention at the clay club , wish I still had that one .
