    I have for sale a Pre-1968 Mossberg 500 12 gauge Pump Shotgun

    Specs:
    Does not, and never did, have a serial number. Guns manufactured before the Gun Control act of 1968 weren't required to have serial numbers.
    The bolt has a scroll pattern engraved on it.
    12 Gauge, 2-3/4" or 3" shells
    5 shot tube
    18.5" cylinder bore barrel with brass bead front sight.
    Has Pachmyre rubber forend and pistol grip.

    This gun fires and functions great, I just have no use for it. The rubber pistol grip makes it easy on the hand when firing buckshot, it absorbs the recoil.

    The finish is rough, there is some pitting here and there, but this would make a great home defense or truck gun.

    $150 firm, face to face, or at the 1500 gun show.
    The only trades I'm interested in is:
    A Taurus TCP .380acp
    A Bersa Thunder .22LR pistol
    Plus some cash from my end.
    I'd have to test fire both at a local range before committing to a deal.

    Thanks for looking!

    ser is most likely under the pistol grip, as that is a modern firearm it will have a serial number... if it don't you might want to turn in to the PD to avoid federal prosecution.

    Pre-1968 Mossberg 500s didn't have serial numbers. Manufacturers weren't legally required to have them until the Gun Control Act of 1968.
