The Story

Maverick 88

The Maverick 88 is the working-class brother of the legendary Mossberg 500 — same proven action, same legendary reliability, just built in Texas to keep the price accessible. The pump-action shotgun is one of the most universally recognized firearm sounds in the world.

Pump shotguns are pure mechanical theater. The thunder of a 12-gauge, the satisfying weight of the action, that iconic cha-chunk — there's no shooting experience quite like it.

Highly recommended for first-time shotgun shooters who want the full experience: the recoil, the boom, the cycling action. It's everything you've ever seen in a movie, made real.

The pump-action shotgun design was perfected by John Moses Browning in the late 1800s and has remained essentially unchanged for over 130 years — a testament to a near-perfect design.

What our visitors say.

Real feedback from guests who fired this weapon at our Riga range.

★★★★★

“The 12-gauge pump is exactly what I imagined — that rack-and-fire action is deeply satisfying. The recoil is real but completely manageable. First shot was the most memorable of the whole session.”

Tom B. · Manchester
★★★★★

“Absolute blast — literally. The sound, the recoil, the sheer presence of a shotgun in your hands. Completely different to every pistol we fired. My wife agreed it was the highlight.”

Patrick M. · Dublin
★★★★★

“I work in security and had used pump shotguns in training before, but never in a range environment where I could focus purely on technique. The instructors gave me more in one session than weeks of basic training.”
