I use a handed down Pump 870 from the early fifties. I never saw any reason to upgrade. It kills turkey as well now as it did for my grandfather. LOL. I did finally trade my old .270 in for an mostly aluminum BLR .243 for deer and love it! At just under 8 Lbs. it never wears you down in the forest.

The Mossberg Revelation is not a pistol grip shotgun. And looking back at your pic it isn't a custom grip but just a hacked OEM one. Either way in Michigan custom or hack, it is now considered a pistol in MI and you now are in possession of an unregistered one.

These, are custom pistol grips Steve. I have never seen a wooden smooth grip in my life.
IMO Yours is a hacked off and sanded OEM stock. Whcih BTW looked like this to begin with.
Either way in MI, fabbing a pistol grip to a shotgun makes it legally a pistol. And it'* serial number will be scrutinized if you register it. Know it'* history?

I have a shotgun and a rifle. Neither are registered. Thank God for the free states of the South!
I plan on buying everything from private sellers from now on though, so much easier.
