- Maverick 88 Security 12 Gauge shotgun with TacStar vertical fore-grip and six-position collapsible stock
The Maverick 88 shares major components with the Mossberg 500 series, making parts and accessory sourcing straightforward for future maintenance or customization.
Twin action bars resist binding during cycling, helping the pump stroke remain smooth even under rapid operation.
The 18.5-inch cylinder-bore barrel offers wide patterning at close range, ideal for defensive roles, while the single brass bead provides an uncomplicated sight picture.
Anodized aluminum receiver keeps overall weight manageable, and the matte blued/black finish minimizes glare. The cross-bolt safety, located at the trigger guard, differs from the Mossberg tang safety but is intuitive for many shooters.
