Thanks for all the input. I purchased a Hogue Overmolded combo kit for the mossy 500 for a price of $38 at ultimate outdoors.com.

I'll post before and after pics after I get the gun cleaned up and updated.

I'm not a huge fan of the brown wood stock and forestock or the tan butt pad, but for the price and condition I couldn't say no. Does anybody have any recomendations for upgrades on the stock set? What is a good place to look online?
If I'm not mistaking thats a standard issuse LEO Shotgun or wait, I think thet may use the Rem 870??

After the stock upgrade, you might want to think about a Tac-Star Sidesaddle shell holder too, oh yeah, a heat shield is nice too. My 500 wears both and a 5 shot butt cuff. 11 rounds handy and accessible, I've got the 7+1 model. Nice choice and super deal!!!
