Heat Shield to fit Maverick 12 guage smooth barrels + Defender Tactical Mini Shell Adaptor
This is the new 'Vapor Eye' version of our shield with the vented-slots instead of the standard cheese grater pattern.
About the Shell adaptor:
This kit essentially provides a conversion to 590S functionality, but in a more robust design. It contains our patent-pending Universal Cartridge Adapter and low-drag no-snag Magazine Follower which allows smooth cycling of 1-3/4" Minishells up to 3" Magnum cartridges in the same magazine. The adapter is constructed from vulcanized thermoplastic rubber, and the follower is machined from solid 6061-T6 billet aluminum. This kit is compatible with any Mossberg 12-Gauge pump-action firearm with a 3" Chamber and machined grooves in the receiver. Please refer to the picture below or the installation video below to confirm your firearm's compatibility.
Please note there may be a short break-in period for some adapters after installation. Cycle a few magazines of full-size shells if you initially experience issues with 1-3/4" shells, please reach out to us if problem persists.
*The Cartridge Adapter and Magazine Follower are optimized to function as a pair, but the factory follower may function as well for those that do not wish to remove it.
