The Security configuration pairs a 20 inch cylinder-bore barrel with a magazine tube that stops short of the muzzle, yielding a 6+1 capacity with 2-3/4 inch shells. The chamber is 3 inch and accepts both 2-3/4 and 3 inch shells. Ejection is from the right side.
Construction follows the proven Mossberg 500 architecture, including dual extractors, twin action bars, steel-to-steel lockup, and an anti-jam elevator. It uses an alloy receiver with a blued/black steel barrel. Markings include "MAVERICK ARMS, EAGLE PASS, TX, USA. MODEL 88" on the barrel/receiver ring.
This shotgun is customized with a B-Square receiver saddle Picatinny rail. Because standard Model 88 receivers are not factory drilled and tapped, the saddle rail provides a solid mounting surface without modifying the receiver. A perforated barrel heat shield is installed, and a Limbsaver slip-on recoil pad is fitted.
The furniture consists of a tan synthetic buttstock and a ribbed synthetic fore-end. The length of pull measures 14.5 inches. Controls include a cross-bolt safety. The finish is blued/black. Origin is USA.
Key configuration notes: 3 inch chamber and cylinder bore are standard for this setup. The magazine tube stops short of the muzzle; capacity is 6+1 in this Security pattern.
