[QUOTE="shotty, post: 1651638, member: 4395"] Never did warm up to the mossy because of it's controls, learned hunting on an Ithica and 870. Top safety feels weird, thumb clicking off safety while finger is on trigger. I always had to reposition my thumb to get a good grip. 870, finger rests on safety and trigger well. Safety moved off and finger on trigger in a smooth motion. Slide release? 870, still using the same finger, with the mossy, which is it? ring/middle finger. But frankly, the only time I can remember using this control is after the hunt to clear the gun. I do like the gate and lifter on a mossy reminds me of my old 37. I certainly wouldnt call a mossberg a POS just because I didn't like controls or know how to work them properly. [/QUOTE]
