What’s Included
- Mossberg 500 ATP 12 Gauge pump-action shotgun
The ATP designation denotes a special-purpose version built for duty use, combining compact overall length with a plain 18.5" cylinder-bore barrel for straightforward handling. The barrel is non-rib and fitted with a brass bead front sight, with no rear sight.
This example is set up in a pistol-grip-only configuration with a black synthetic, finger-grooved grip and a black synthetic ribbed forend. The aluminum alloy receiver wears a black finish, and the overall firearm shows a mix of black and blued finishes. Sling attachment points are installed at the front and rear.
Chambered in 12 Gauge, it accepts both 2 3/4" and 3" shells and feeds from a 5-round tubular magazine. The action is pump-operated and built on the Mossberg 500 series architecture, manufactured in the USA.
As noted, the tang safety button/plate is missing and the shotgun has no safety installed. For a buyer seeking a repair project or components, this setup lends itself to replacing the safety assembly or parting out as needed.
