The differences between the 930 JM Pro and 940 JM Pro were immediately visible. Joining us at the Gunsite Academy were both Lena Miculek and her always pleasant father Jerry, smiling as they passed out the new shotguns to reviewers. I can’t find a mass-produced shotgun capable of quad-loading straight from the box. This is the first shotgun produced that can be quad-loaded out-of-the-box.” Photo by Mark Fingar Mossberg Engineer John Raciti was pleased to tell those of us in attendance, “We are proud to offer a complete solution when it comes to providing a 3-Gun-ready semiauto shotgun right out-of-the-box. The 940 JM Pro combines Miculek’s genius and ingenuity with appropriate factory installed accessories, engineering and value.
#Mossberg shotty series#
Mossberg introduced the replacement of the 930 series at the Gunsite Academy ( ). More than simply bearing Jerry Miculek’s initials, the new 940 action is a detailed, ground-up build that’s sure to impress you and your wallet. The newest addition to Mossberg’s shotgun line is not what the 930 JM Pro was. If, like me, you’ve longed for an over-the-counter, 3-Gun-ready shotgun, long no more. The 940 offers slim furniture with new texturing. The modifications necessary to bring the 930 JM Pro up to speed, as well as the constant maintenance to create necessary reliability, made me wonder if it would ever happen. (Photo by Alfredo Rico)Ī 3-Gun shooter myself, I’ve tried to fashion a cost effective, reliable shotgun to meet my competitive needs, but I ended up angry, frustrated and relieved of hard-earned money. The Mossberg 940 JM Pro is based on what Jerry and Lena Miculek felt was necessary to make the 930 appropriate for 3-Gun competition. The news was made only more interesting by the fact that the “First Family of Shooting,” Jerry Miculek’s family, would be involved. This was much anticipated news, as I happen to be the owner of more than one imperfect 930. It was sometime in late 2018 when I became aware of Mossberg’s pursuit to make an out-of-the-box, 3-Gun-ready shotgun - a complete system that fixes anything that came up short on their 930 JM Pro Series. Then there are all of the competitive disciplines. From the most violent suspects to breaching doors, shotguns get the job done, sometimes solely by intimidation.
There is no doubt in my mind as a former Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) operator, that shotguns are a frontrunner in the application of force. If you’ve pined over the idea of an over-the-counter “shotty” to meet your 3-Gun needs, the Mossberg 940 JM Pro may be the one.įrom woods and waters, to law enforcement and home defense, shotguns still play a considerable role in the world of firearms. Mossberg & Sons have created another shotgun that’s certain to catch the eye of more than one crowd. I suggest “almost” because as long as the scattergun has been around, it has been customized to meet specialized needs. There have been shotguns made for almost every need.
