Nice!   8)

Looks to me like you can replace the breacher brake with another type of choke,  Depending on the treads.  Some one who knows more on shotguns could probably ascertain that from looking at the pics.  Or take it off and check one of the gun shops if this is possible.

Indeed. Bought a Remington-brand modified choke. Hope it comes in the mail before Sunday!

No prob. Post pics of your pistol-gripped Mossy!

The Mesa Tac kit comes with a Hogue grip which I like a lot and it fits my hand well. Very grippy and I like the soft feel. I do like the look of the Magpul MIAD grip, though, but I haven't held one so idk if it would be a good fit for me. In retrospect, I might've gotten the Magpul CTR stock rather than the MOE. The MOE is kind of wobbly. Not much but I would prefer if it were more snug. This kit is also recoil-reducing (the stock tube is hydraulic) and I can't wait to try it out at the range!

Nice. I can't wait to hear how the stock and pistol grip work out in actual use.
