What’s Included
- Western Field M550ABD 12 gauge pump-action shotgun
The M550ABD follows the proven Model 500 pattern with Mossberg manufacturing, noted in this example by the aluminum-alloy receiver, right-side ejection port, twin action bars, and dual extractors. It carries MADE IN U.S.A. rollmarks and Western Field branding from the Montgomery Ward house line.
The factory C-LECT CHOKE on the plain barrel provides adjustable constriction at the muzzle, adding versatility for different loads and distances. The barrel is marked for both 2 3/4 and 3 inch shells, and the tubular magazine offers a 5+1 capacity.
Controls are straightforward and ambidextrous, centered around the tang-mounted safety with a red index dot. The shotgun uses a front single-bead sight and no rear sight, consistent with a clean field-style sight picture.
Furniture includes a hardwood buttstock with a 14.0 inch length of pull and a ribbed hardwood corncob-style forend. Metalwork shows a blued finish with a dark-anodized receiver for a uniform, classic appearance.
