Ok gang,
First I will probably need a picture but I haven't got an online account yet so I am going to try and describe it first. I just bought a new Mossberg HD/Field Combo 500. I also bought on e-bay a tri-rail Promag tac forened to put on it back in December.
Problem is that I do not see any way that one is going to replace the other.
Tri rail is a ProMag, and I have stripped the whole gun down to the point of having the factory forend in my hand. (with the two arms still sticking out of it. There is no NUT holding this on, but rather a tension spring shaped in a loop which goes from one arm, up through the middle, loops back to the other arm. The arms appear to be held in place with pins of some sort.
The ProMag stock, which was advertised for the 500, with the exception of the holes drilled through it and the relief for fitting under the barrel does not appear to have any means of attaching the two metal arms, did not have instructions, nor locations for the arms... Could this really be for a Semi auto 590 and not the 500? That might make sense but in that case I've been ripped off.
Any thoughts or ideas? Did I get Hosed over on EBay?
I realize the description sucks, but I thought Id try this first and then get a picture later as it might be something obvious to a shotgun guy...
Any thoughts/suggestions?
