Hey guys and gals, i'm looking for an after market Thumbhole Stock to fit my Mossy 500. My Mossy 500 is covered in Mossy Oak Breakup so i'd prefer a Thumbhole stock that matches but if not no biggy. Any help/links would be appreciated.
If you go to a thumbhole stock,you'll have a lot of trouble trying to operate the tang safety because you'll have to totally lose grip to operate the safety then put thumb inside thumbhole-a lot of movement when a turkey is in front of you.

I think the Boyd's thumbhole stocks look really sharp! they are laminated wood but i suppose you could take it someplace to get it dipped to match the rest of your gun. I'm going to get one for my 870 before turkey season

I put one of the AR-15 type collapsible stocks on my Mossberg 500 and am having the same problem. I think I'm gonna get an 870 for this purpose and keep the 500 with the original wood stock just because it's such a PITA to get to the safety. Just my $.02.
