Sling for the Mossberg 590 Shockwave | Fitment & Mounts

Yes — the McLean Shotgun Sling fits the Mossberg 590 Shockwave. The front of the sling carries its own hook, so up front it only needs a loop to clip onto — never a second hook.

Front attachment

Magazine-cap or barrel-clamp adapter — you need to add one.

No factory sling point. A clamp or mag-cap adapter creates the loop the sling hooks to.

Rear attachment

Grip strap or clamp adapter — you need to add one.

Bird's-head Raptor grip, no buttstock — a dedicated Shockwave rear adapter is required.

Why this sling on a Mossberg 590 Shockwave

Duty, home-defence and competition use put a shotgun on and off the shoulder constantly, often with a hand busy loading. Retention matters more here than raw comfort: the gun has to lock against the body and release without a second thought.

The McLean design is a two-point sling with a patented retention system: it cinches tight to hold the shotgun against your body hands-free, then releases into a ready position in one pull. It ships in one size and adjusts, so there is no length to choose.

Fitting it

Clear the shotgun. Tube unloaded, action open, chamber checked visually and physically.
Front: clip the sling hook to the magazine-cap or barrel-clamp adapter.
Rear: attach at the grip strap or clamp adapter.
Adjust wearing your kit. A setting dialled in without a vest comes up short once it is on.
Check the transition. It should shoulder without pulling tight across your chest.

Questions

Does the McLean Shotgun Sling fit a Mossberg 590 Shockwave?

Yes. At the front the sling uses its own hook, so it needs a loop to clip to: the magazine-cap or barrel-clamp adapter (added separately). At the rear it attaches at the grip strap or clamp adapter (added separately).

Do I need a snap hook for the front of my Mossberg 590 Shockwave?

No. The McLean sling carries its own hook at the front as part of the retention system. It only needs something to hook onto — a factory loop, a swivel, or any loop you add. Buying a second snap hook for the front is wasted money.

What do I need to buy for a Mossberg 590 Shockwave?

At the front you need a loop: No factory sling point. A clamp or mag-cap adapter creates the loop the sling hooks to. At the rear: Bird's-head Raptor grip, no buttstock — a dedicated Shockwave rear adapter is required.

What length sling do I need for a Mossberg 590 Shockwave?

There is no length to choose. The sling ships in one size and adjusts, so the same sling covers carry and cinched retention. Set it wearing the kit you actually carry in — a setting dialled in without a vest or heavy coat comes up short once it is on.
