The Aim Sports MTM88 is a drop-in forend that swaps out your factory pump handle for something you can actually build on. It runs a tough polymer body with black anodized, aircraft-grade aluminum rails on the sides and bottom, so you get real estate for a weapon light, a vertical grip, or whatever else your setup calls for. It fits the Maverick 88 and the Mossberg 500, and the rails take any standard Weaver or Picatinny 1913 accessory, which keeps your options wide open.
The big draw here is versatility without a lot of added weight. At right around 13 ounces and 14.5 inches long, this forend keeps the front end of your shotgun feeling balanced while giving you mounting points that the factory handle just doesn't have. A lot of folks grab this specifically to run a light for home-defense duty or to add a forward grip for better control during fast handling. The side rails are removable too, so if you only need the bottom rail for a grip, you can strip the sides down and keep things lean.
Installation is a home-shop job with no gunsmithing required. You'll pull the old forend off and slide this one on, and most people knock it out in a matter of minutes. If you've never removed a Maverick or Mossberg forend before, it's worth pulling up a quick video first so you know how the action slide comes apart. One tip from real-world users: the aluminum rail edges can feel a touch sharp out of the package, so plenty of people run a grip on the bottom rail or lightly knock down any edges to keep it comfortable in the hand.
Bottom line, if you want to modernize a Maverick 88 or Mossberg 500 and open the door to lights, grips, and other add-ons, the MTM88 is a straightforward, budget-friendly way to get there.
Yes. The MTM88 is designed for both the Maverick 88 and the Mossberg 500 platform, since the two share the same forend design. Owners have reported it fitting a range of 500 models, including 20-gauge variants. As always, confirm your specific barrel and magazine tube configuration before ordering.
No gunsmithing is required. You remove the factory forend and slide the MTM88 into place, which most people finish in just a few minutes. If it's your first time, watching a short forend-removal video for your shotgun makes the whole job easier.
The forend accepts any standard Weaver or Picatinny 1913 accessory, so you can run weapon lights, lasers, or a vertical forward grip. It has rail space on both sides and the bottom, and the side rails are removable if you want to keep the profile slim. A bottom-rail grip is popular since it gives you a comfortable, controllable hold.
The forend is built with a polymer body and aluminum rails, and some users note the rail edges can feel a little sharp straight out of the box. Adding a forward grip to the bottom rail solves this for most people, and others lightly dress the edges for a smoother feel. It's a common and easy fix that doesn't take away from the forend's value.
