This shotgun is tempting. Would it be worth it to upgrade from an 870 express?

Nah, but would make a nice half sister for it ;)

Interesting.  I want a Tx4 though, if I ever buy another shotgun that is.  Lol. 



Hey Dom, what light mount was on your shotgun again?

That ghost loading is a cool idea.  What all does that work on I wonder.  Hmmmmm

Chinese or not... it shoots american ammo.  :th_thicon_idea: Very nice and the price is GREAT!!

Not sure what all other shotguns does the ghost load works with, I'm sure it's not limited to this model.

UPDATE:

Okay, I'm glad I didn't order this particular version yet. Apparently there are two the Mossberg 930 SPX  and the Mossberg 930 SPX Blackwater version.

Basically it's the same gun but the blackwater has the "Blackwater logo" (Didn't like it anyway.. looks frickin' tacky) and different front sight.

Front site of the Blackwater




The normal version is a nicer Winged fiber optic front sight





Rather have the nicer front site that the nasty Blackwater logo that will be a constant reminder of G.W. Bush.

Nice, but what's the deal with all the recent Beretta *X4 naming format?

My light mount was Elzetta ZSM

Screw Blackwater! They get guys killed then change their name & run.
