I've got a Mossberg 500 in 12GA that I'd like to make some changes to. Specifically, I'd like to remove the existing stock and put a TacStar adapter on it so I can put an adjustable AR-type Magpul stock and pistol grip on it. I have recently acquired a 590 with a similar configuration and have really felt comfortable with it. It's been nice to be able to adjust it for the different shooters in the family.
My question is, and maybe I'm overthinking this, is that I know I'll need to get a buffer tube in order to attach the Magpul stock...should I be worried about what kind of buffer weight and spring to use since this is a 12GA rather than an 556 AR?
I've never made this mod myself before, so I'd love to hear some input from anyone who may have done this to their shotgun before.
Thanks in advance for any experience you can share!
