Here is the info from Mossbergs website.

I bought one in 2002, and it is ok. Action could be smoother, and the trigger is aweful. Mine is8 pounds, yes8 pounds. And I have yet to find a smith that will touch it. The gun doesshoot pretty good though, right around 2" at 100 yards. My only complaints are the trigger, and the ported barrel. The porting makes it incredibly loud, and only helps muzzle jump minimumly. I paid $220 for mine brand new. I would suggest you look at the Savage bolt action slug gun if you can afford it, it is a much better gun. Good luck
