Las Vegas’s Vang Comp has, since 1990, grown into the go-to name when it comes to practical shotgunning. While the company’s tricked-out Remington 870 MCS can run $2,200, they now have an “all you really need” Mossberg 590A1 companion.

Meet the Vang Comp Model 764 Mossberg 590A1 – “The Standard”
“The collab with Mossberg on this 590A1 is everything we wanted to see in a production-level fighting shotgun. 18″ VCS barrel, Short stock, light-ready forend, ghost ring sights. No choke tubes, no long stock, no need for extra light mount interfaces, just add a sling if you want and a side saddle if you need it,” says Vang Comp. “So stoked on these and we’re just getting started!”
The core of this shotgun – the venerable 590A1 – is the most durable pump action shotgun Mossberg makes, and we make it even better.
This entry-level trim is designed so that people don’t pay for anything they don’t need.
Mossberg’s synthetic short stock (13″ length of pull) was chosen because it’s short, and has a good recoil pad and a sling swivel stud.
-Grab a sling if you need one, but if you don’t need a sling, then why pay extra for a stock that has a bunch of sling mounts?
The Tri-Rail forend was chosen because it has plenty of traction, which is handy for a manual-action shotgun, and it has Picatinny rails so that folks can mount a light to the shotgun without the need to go purchase (or maintain) additional light mount interfaces.
-Grab a light if you need one, and clip it right to the Picatinny rails, but if you don’t prefer a light on the forend then you get extra traction and haven’t paid extra for features you won’t use.
-Grab a side saddle if you need one (ours is out of stock for now but plates are heading to anodize shortly and will be back in stock early 2023), but if you’d prefer a lower-profile and “streamlined” long gun, leave it off.
Out of the box, this firearm will do everything you need a shotgun to do.
Our Vang Comp System barrel modification will reduce the felt recoil and tighten the shot/slug patterns while reducing muzzle rise and muzzle flash.
Our Big Speed Safety is made from billet aluminum and is oversized for easier switching.
Our Stainless Steel Magazine Follower is corrosion resistant, low-drag, and provides a tactile indication of “a round” or “no rounds” left in the magazine.
Our trained and experienced technicians strip each shotgun down to the main components and visually inspect everything to be sure these guns are ready to serve you.
After we do our barrel work and install our safety and follower, the shotgun is reassembled, we run two tubes worth of dummy rounds through the magazine, and the action is tested again to be doubly sure this shotgun is good to go.
So grab this shotgun and call it a day.
Whether it’s your 1st shotgun or your 10th, there’s room for The Standard Vang Comp Shotgun in everyone’s life.
