Mossberg Maverick 88 Bantam 20 gauge / 22 LR Accu-chk Pump-Action Shotgun

The Mossberg Maverick 88 Bantam 20 gauge / 22 LR Accu-chk pump-action shotgun is purpose-built for shooters who need reliable, compact firepower without excess weight or bulk. Designed for youth shooters, smaller-framed adults, and tactical operators working in confined spaces, this dual-caliber platform delivers proven Mossberg reliability in a 7.5 lb package that measures 36.75 inches overall. The Bantam configuration makes it ideal for home defense, patrol work, and training environments where maneuverability trumps extended sight radius.

This pump-action design features Mossberg's proven operating system with dual-caliber capability—switching between 20 gauge shotgun and .22 LR rifle ammunition with barrel and action changes. The Accu-chk sighting system provides accurate target acquisition for both defensive and precision applications, while the pump mechanism ensures positive feeding and reliable chambering under stress. The compact 36.75-inch length reduces hang-up potential in vehicle entries and close-quarters scenarios, a critical advantage for law enforcement and armed citizens defending tight interior spaces.

Law enforcement agencies, security professionals, and civilian shooters benefit from this platform's versatility and manageable recoil impulse—particularly valuable for training new shooters or personnel with shoulder sensitivity. The Bantam dimensions accommodate standard shotgun scabbards and reduced-size tactical mounts, making it compatible with vehicle storage and compact carrying rigs. Maintenance follows standard Mossberg shotgun protocols, ensuring quick field-stripping and cleaning with commonly available tools.
