For 2025 Mossberg's 940 Pro Waterfowl is continuing on with an optic-ready receiver cut to accept direct mounting of micro-dot optics (RMSc-pattern), while also becoming available fully finished in Realtree's Legacy pattern.
The 940 Pro Waterfowl Series is engineered for the wet, cold, and dirty conditions waterfowlers face. Key features include weather-resistant Cerakote metal surfaces; 28-inch chrome-lined barrels with HIVIZ CompSight fiber-optic front sights; durable synthetic, self-draining stocks and fore-ends; and nickel-boron coatings on several internal components (gas piston, magazine tube, hammer, sear, and return spring tube). The design also incorporates stainless steel rings and a hard-anodized aluminum return spring plunger for long life and low maintenance.
Built to run reliably in the field, the 940 Pro's gas system can operate up to 1,500 rounds before cleaning and will cycle factory-manufactured 2.75- or 3-inch loads of 1 1/8 ounce or greater (up to what is currently available on the market at press time). Ergonomic, hunter-friendly features include an oversized, beveled loading port with a redesigned elevator and shell catch for pinch-free loading; a barrel manufacturing process that preserves point-of-aim and impact; a slim-profile fore-end; and a user-configurable stock with adjustable length-of-pull (13–14.25-inches) and drop and cast options. Large charging handle and paddle-style bolt release controls make operation fast and intuitive in cold or gloved hands. When optics aren't mounted a cover plate is included to preserve a sealed receiver.
