Mossberg Model 183KD .410 Bore Bolt-Action Shotgun with 25-Inch C-Lect-Choke Barrel
This Mossberg Model 183KD stands out as one of the few American-made bolt-action .410 repeaters produced after the 1960s. Built between 1968 and 1986, it features a factory-installed C-Lect-Choke system, a lightweight hardwood stock, and a compact 25-inch barrel. Its simple three-shot capacity and adjustable choke make it a versatile choice for small-game hunting or informal clay practice.

What’s Included
- Mossberg Model 183KD bolt-action .410 Bore shotgun
The 25-inch carbon-steel barrel is factory threaded for Mossberg’s C-Lect-Choke, allowing the shooter to dial Cylinder, Modified, or Full constriction without changing tubes. This flexibility broadens the gun’s utility from tight cover quail to longer-range squirrel or pest control.
A two-round fixed magazine, combined with a smooth-feeding bolt, delivers a total capacity of three shots—ideal for states with small-game capacity limits. The action remains one of the simplest and most reliable repeating systems available in a .410 platform.
The hardwood stock is walnut-stained with a straight comb, pistol grip, and rubber recoil pad. At about 5.5 pounds and 43.5 inches overall, the gun balances quickly and carries easily for extended field walks.
Blued carbon-steel metalwork gives classic Mossberg durability, and a circled ‘F’ inspection stamp on the receiver confirms factory quality control. A plain front bead keeps sighting fast and uncluttered.
