NORTH HAVEN, CT – Joining the 940 Pro Tactical Optic-Ready autoloading shotgun family is a micro dot-equipped version. The 940 Pro Tactical Holosun Micro Dot Combo features a HS407K open reflex optical sight, giving consumers the choice of purchasing the standard 940 Pro Tactical (with cover plate for when a mounted optic is not used) or a ready-for-the-range combo.
Mossberg’s optic-ready 940 Pro Tactical 8-shot autoloaders are based on a cleaner-running and redesigned gas-operating system that can run up to 1,500 rounds between cleaning intervals. And like all 940 Pro shotguns, the Tactical versions have corrosion-resistant internal parts and finishes including nickel boron-coated gas piston, magazine tube, hammer and sear.
Other key design features include an enlarged and beveled loading port, elongated, pinch-free elevator and bright orange anodized follower configured for ease of loading. The knurled, extended charging handle and oversized, ergonomic bolt release lever provide for easy manipulation. The extended magazine tube allows for a 7+1 round capacity with 2.75-inch shells and the barrel clamp features a sling swivel stud plus dual-sided M-LOK®-compatible slots for the addition of accessories. The 18.5-inch barrel features a matte finish and is topped with a fiber optic front sight. The barrel is threaded for use with interchangeable AccuChoke™ choke tubes (Cylinder choke tube included).

Maybe I’m getting old but that’s a lot of money for a utilitarian shotgun, especially one that didn’t require anybody to chop down a walnut tree.
