In the realm of shotguns, where utility meets reliability, the Maverick 88 stands as a testament to practical engineering and versatility. Known affectionately as "The Working Man's Shotgun," this model is not just an implement for hunting or sport; it is a steadfast companion whether in upland fields or safeguarding your home.
The Maverick 88 Pump-Action Security model, chambered in 12 gauge with an 18.5-inch barrel, embodies simplicity and effectiveness. Its pump-action system features dual extractors and twin action bars that ensure smooth operation every time you cycle the action. A positive steel-to-steel lockup combined with an anti-jam elevator underscores its commitment to trouble-free performance—a critical factor when seconds count.
This particular configuration boasts a cylinder bore choke ideal for security applications where spread needs are paramount at close quarters. With a fixed length of pull at 14.5 inches, users will find handling intuitive and steady under pressure.
Finished in Flat Dark Earth (FDE), both stock and fore-end provide durability alongside aesthetic appeal while maintaining a lightweight profile at just over six pounds—ensuring maneuverability without sacrificing robustness.
Moreover, compatibility with Mossberg 500 accessory stocks, barrels, and Accu-choke tubes within gauge enhances customization potential—allowing owners to tailor their shotgun precisely to their preferences or requirements.
For those seeking reliable performance from dawn patrols in dense woods to vigilant nights on guard duty—the Maverick 88 delivers consistently without compromise.
