Dear Mossberg:

ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?

http://www.mossberg.com/products/default.asp?id=31

Please tell me your 464 SPX Lever Action Rifle is an elaborate April Fool's joke.

This is the most shameful piece of **** ever created. Please pull your design team away from Call of Duty and send them for a urinalysis.

A lever action rifle. With a collapsible stock, tactical rails, a compensator, matte finish. Jesus, Mary and Joseph. Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

This tactical **** is getting WAY out of hand. The firearms industry is thriving in America. You make awesome combat shotguns. How could you possibly be this desperate for additional market share? This thing looks like Rambo's gun sneaked out of the house and raped John Wayne's gun.

This is not clever, groundbreaking or edgy in any way. It's asinine. It serves no purpose. It is a drunken hick with a mullet. There will be websites developed for the sole purpose of ridiculing people who are stupid enough to be caught in public with one of these **** sticks.

Since you have the unmitigated gall to let this gun-turd see the light of day, it's apparent you have zero self awareness. Otherwise, you'd be hanging your heads in shame.

**** you, Mossberg.

I spit my coffee all over my keyboard over that line. Out of a gun full of fail, comes a thread full of win.

I guess since double barrel shotguns have gotten the "tactical" makeover, it was only a matter of time?

Where's my flintlock with a quad rail cover and ACOG scope?

Wow I thought that double barreled .45 was terrible. This looks like it is marketed to the video game crowd.

Am I a bad man in wanting them to somehow outfit it with a banana clip too?

The Winchester 94 was my first "big boy" rifle. I have fond memories of proudly carrying one of those things around on my first deer hunts without being accompanied by an adult.

This thing just shat upon the boyhood memories of about 10 million American sportsmen.

Hell, they might as well. Tears on a river. Push on a shove. Isn't that how the song goes?

Well you all know I like bayonets, spears, and medieval weaponry. I'd love to see a tactical musket made with modern durable materials that you could still set versus a cavalry charge. :)

Huh, the first think I thought was that it looked like The Rifleman got molested by Q,

**** you, Mossberg.

Oh, I've got a grip. It's supposed to be a fun conversation. Don't PMS about it like a little bitch.

And it's stupid business because it's a **** product.

If I was still running a gun store I would buy three and they would probably be gone in a week. I never projected my tastes to the customers, if Mossberg is making it there's probably a market for it. I sold a Cobray LHC the first day I had it in the shop as the general manager of the company was telling me I was an idiot for buying it.
