Mossberg 500 safety

[Sarge]

One thing Mossberg absolutely nailed on the 500 series is the safety placement, it is right on top and exactly where your thumb naturally rests. It’s fully ambidextrous too, which is a huge plus whether you’re left-handed or shooting weak side. After using other shotguns with cross-bolt safeties, the Mossberg setup just feels more natural and faster, who's with me?

Once you use tang safety, cross‑bolts feel like hiding the light switch in the dark
