12 Gauge Shotgun Mossberg
Can you shoot sabot slugs from a 12 gauge mossberg 500 tactical shotgun?
Here's the shotgun I'm interested in: https://policeguns.com/catalog/images/54125.jpg
Yes you most certainly can.... This is completely safe to do so with that Mossberg shotgun....
I also should point out that sabot slugs work efficiently if they are fired from a shotgun with a rifled barrel.... that shotgun you are looking at has a cylinder bore barrel.... Since there is no barrel rifling the sabot slug will not be very effective, give poor shot groups and give unpredictable results....
Its safe - but not effective..... Sabots are expensive so I surely would not spend the extra money of them for poor results.....
What you want to do is shoot rifled slugs (foster type) thru that particular Mossberg shotgun.... they are designed to fire thru a cylinder bore shotgun like that.....
These would work great!....

Look over this shotgun slug tutorial to give you a better understanding of what can be used in the Mossberg police type shotguns.....

As a side note --- You may want to consider a shotgun that has a regular stock.... That pistol grip looks cool in the movies but in reality it is difficult to hit what you aiming at when the target is more than a room distance away.....
This is a more accurate choice..... catalog # 50411

or my favorite catalog # 50577....

Also that shotgun you show in the photo has a breacher on the end.... If your not blowing hinges or locks off a door (which I might add is extremely dangerous) then all it is - is a cool looking ornament.....
If you want a little more quality then surely look over this Mossberg 590 18 inch barrel model..... Catalog # 52682

Here is part of my shotgun collection... After extensive use of each of these firearms is how I came to my opinions.....
