Launched in 2021, the Mossberg 940 Pro Waterfowl and the 940 Pro Snow Goose 12-gauge autoloaders have provided waterfowlers with durable, high-performance shotguns built for extremes. Now Mossberg is taking these shotguns to the next level with an optic-ready receiver, designed to accept the direct mounting of RMSc-pattern micro-dot optics. A cover plate is included for when there is no optic mounted. Further, the 940 Pro Waterfowl will wear a new camo-finished stock and fore-end with Mossy Oak's newest pattern—Vintage Shadow Grass.
For added protection and corrosion resistance, Mossberg’s 940 Pro Waterfowl Series features Cerakoted metal surfaces. Twenty-eight-inch chrome-lined barrels are equipped with HIVIZ CompSight front fiber-optic sights, for easy acquisition when not using a reflex. Durable synthetic fore-ends and self-draining stocks round the firearm out as a true, marsh-ready workhorse. Further toward these ends, the 940 Pro sports a nickel boron-coating on internal components (gas piston, magazine tube, hammer, sear, and return spring tube), stainless steel rings, and a hard-anodized aluminum return-spring plunger.
Designed for reliable performance, the 940 Pro includes a gas system that may run up to 1,500 rounds before cleaning, and will cycle factory-manufactured 2.75- or 3-inch ammunition that is 1 1/8-ounce or greater. Standard features include an oversized, beveled loading port with a redesigned elevator and shell catch to allow for efficient and pinch-free loading into the magazine tube; a slim-profile fore-end and stock configurable for LOP (13-14.25-inches), drop and cast; and an oversized charging handle and paddle-style bolt release for ease of operation through waterfowl gear.Â
940 Pro Waterfowl Optic Ready
This optic-ready 12-gauge, 3-inch autoloader features a 28-inch AccuChoke-compatible vent-rib barrel equipped with a HIVIZ CompSight front-fiber-optic sight. An extended X-Factor Modified choke tube and flush Full and Improved Cylinder chokes are included. Metal surfaces (receiver and barrel) wear a weather-resistant Cerakote finish in Patriot Brown, which naturally blends with the Mossy Oak Vintage Shadow Grass camouflaged stock and fore-end. Rounding out this package is aggressive Mossberg signature texturing on the fore-end and stock; sling swivel studs; five-round capacity; optic-cut receiver; drilled and tapped receiver; and an ambidextrous safety.
