For hunters and shooters looking to step up to an autoloader, Mossberg has the answer - the 930 Autoloader. This gas operated autoloading shotgun handles 12 gauge 2 3/4" and 3" ammunition with ease, from low brass target loads to non-toxic magnum rounds to the latest in sabot slug ammunition, this gun is a classic example of Mossberg innovation.
That the 930 Autoloader is loaded with features normally found on more expensive shotguns, yet possesses a non-nonsense attitude, may come as no surprise to customers.
930 models feature a "quick-empty" magazine button for easy unloading, a cocking indicator that protrudes from inside the trigger guard when the action is cocked, and a drilled and tapped receiver for convenient scope base installation. Each 930 includes a complete set of specially designed stock spacers to enable quick adjustment of both the horizontal and vertical angle of the stock, bringing that custom-type fit to every shooter.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
12 gauge is the most popular and useful shotgun gauges ever made. Suitable for everything from doves to geese. With sporting, military and law enforcement applications. Available in 2 ¾”, 3” and 3 ½”. The magnum lengths are generally preferred for waterfowl and turkey. Most major manufacturers produce guns and ammunition in a very wide septum for 12 gauge. Loads from ¾ oz. to 2 oz. are common with 1 1/8 oz Low base and 1 ¼ oz being the most common loadings. Target loads are normally around 1150 to 1200 FPS with High velocity lead loads tuning up 1350 FPS. Steel waterfowl loads tend to be loaded faster around 1500 FPS to compensate lower density shot. While the 2 ¾” loading is still the most popular ammunition made, nearly all current production guns have 3”or 3 ½” chambers. The shorter ammunition can be safely fired in longer chambers, but not all magnum semiautomatics will function with shorter shotshells.
