But for real though, I recently picked up a Mossberg 590A1 Retrograde, my first shotgun! It’s a gorgeous boomstick, one I hope to own for many years and maybe pass down.

It is a little weird. I think they were trying to fuse old fashioned looks with modern features since the retrograde line commemorates Mossberg’s centennial.
I dunno why in the world they call it Retrograde when it has ghost rings, actual retro would just be a bead, which is honestly all a shotgun needs unless you’re throwing slugs out past 75yds. Super nice model, though, pump shotguns just inherently look and feel better with wood; now you just need an M9 to complete the effect.
