Mossberg 990 Aftershock: Semi-Auto Sawed Off!

About this video

Colion reviews the Mossberg 990, which he describes as a semi-automatic version of the Mossberg 940 in a compact “sawed-off” form factor. He discusses the gun’s legal classification as an “other” firearm, explains why he finds it cool but challenging to shoot accurately, and explores its practical applications as a close-range defensive weapon. Colion demonstrates various shooting positions and suggests modifications like adding a laser or red dot to improve usability.

Key takeaways

• Colion explains that the Mossberg 990 is legally classified as an ‘other’ firearm rather than a shotgun, making it easier to purchase without additional ATF paperwork.
• According to Colion, the 990 is difficult to shoot accurately at distance but excels as a close-range ‘get off me’ defensive tool, similar to compact pistols but in shotgun form.
• Colion recommends adding accessories like a laser/light combo or red dot sight to improve accuracy, since the unconventional grip makes intuitive aiming challenging.
