Maverick and Mossberg shotguns share many interchangeable parts, [31] [32] but Maverick shotguns differ in some ways, such as lacking sling swivel studs and having cross-bolt safeties instead of tang safeties, which makes the trigger group non-interchangeable with the Model 500 shotgun. The one-piece forearm can be replaced with OEM or ...

The forward part of the trigger guard was provided with an enlargement which was drilled to receive the sling swivel rivet. Previously, the sling swivel had been affixed to a stud in front of the trigger guard. [2]
The bayonet band incorporated a bayonet mount and front sling swivel. A rear sling swivel was affixed to the underside of the wooden buttstock. The fore-end was also timber. The bayonet mount accepted the M1917 bayonet. [32] [h] In 1979, Mossberg was awarded a contract to supply its Model 500 shotguns to the U.S. Army
Trench guns were also fitted with a sling swivel in the stock. Riot guns also had 20-inch barrels (cylinder bore) and had all the same martial markings, except that all the barrel markings were on the left side. The long-barreled training guns were marked in the same manner as riot guns and were mainly used for aerial gunnery training.

Unlike the CW Sling, the Ching sling consists of a main strap, which is attached to the forearm and buttstock sockets like a normal carry sling, and a short strap. A clockwise half twist in the sling at the fore-end socket allows the strap to lie flat against the arm when shooting.
