Description

There's a reason wood-stocked pump guns never really went out of style, and the Mossberg 500 Retrograde Field is proof. Mossberg took the classic look of their early hunting pumps, complete with a checkered walnut stock and that distinctive corncob forend, and built it on the same 500 action that's been running strong for decades with more than 12 million sold. The result is a shotgun that looks like the one your dad or grandfather carried, but with all the practical touches you'd expect from a current production 500.

What the 500 Retrograde Field Brings to the Blind

The 28-inch matte blued barrel wears a vent rib with dual bead sights, which gives you a clean, natural sight picture for swinging on doves, pheasants, or clays. The 3-inch chamber handles everything from light target loads to heavier hunting shells, and the 5+1 tube capacity gives you plenty on tap where regulations allow. It ships with a set of Accu-Set choke tubes, so you can go tight for late-season roosters or open things up for close-flushing quail without buying anything extra. Underneath the wood, you get the hallmarks that made the 500 famous: twin action bars, dual extractors, an anti-jam elevator, and positive steel-to-steel lockup. That short, smooth pump stroke means fast follow-ups when a covey gets up all at once.

Why the Retrograde 500 Just Works

The tang-mounted safety sits right under your thumb and works the same whether you shoot right or left handed, which is one of the smartest features on any pump gun. The receiver comes drilled and tapped if you ever want to add an optic, and the vented recoil pad takes some of the sting out of long days at the range. At around 7.5 pounds with a 47.5-inch overall length and a 13.87-inch length of pull, it carries and mounts like a proper field gun should.

A Walnut Pump Gun Worth Handing Down

The Retrograde Field hits a sweet spot: real walnut and blued steel character on top of one of the most proven pump actions ever made. It's the kind of shotgun that earns its scratches in the field and still looks good doing it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Mossberg 500 Retrograde Field come with choke tubes?

Yes, it ships with Mossberg's Accu-Set choke system, which includes Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder tubes. That covers most upland, waterfowl, and clay target situations right out of the box. Additional Accu-Choke tubes are widely available if you want more options later.

Can the 500 Retrograde Field shoot both 2-3/4 and 3-inch shells?

It sure can. The 3-inch chamber handles standard 2-3/4 inch target and field loads as well as 3-inch magnum shells. That flexibility is a big part of why the 500 platform has been a favorite all-around hunting gun for so long.

Is the tang safety on the Mossberg 500 good for left-handed use?

Yes, and it's one of the best features of the 500 design. The safety sits on top of the receiver tang, so your thumb reaches it the same way from either shoulder. Lefties tend to love Mossberg pumps for exactly this reason.

Can I mount an optic on the 500 Retrograde Field?

The receiver comes drilled and tapped from the factory, so adding a rail or scope base is straightforward. For most field and wing shooting, though, the vent rib and dual bead sights are all you'll need.
