Well after many successful years with 835's, I finally pulled the trigger on a new 935 autoloader.

I don't really need the higher magazine capacity but the extension allows a factory load of shells to be put in the gun without bottoming out the spring and fatiguing it prematurely. The added weight of the extension and clamp amounts to about 10 ounces giving the gun the muzzle rise of a gun with a 28 inch barrel while allowing the barrel to remain short. It also gives me a point of attachment for my side mount sling.
The groove up the centerline of the Mossberg rail allows me to co-witness my front fiber optic sight looking thru the rail groove and under the reflex sight as if the rail were a peep sight.
The raised safety button allows the tang safety to be operated with the index finger. The tang safety on Mossbergs are great with a traditional stock but a pain with a pistol grip causing you to have to let go of the grip and pull the thumb up over the stock. This button allows a person to push it off with the index finger.
Had a buddy do the same last season. He has an 835 from 93 -94 with the Greenleaf pattern I believe. He set her up for lead cause he just could not totally retire her.
You got that gun set up right. Cannot wait to see some harvests with her!
On a side note, I always enjoy your posts and knowledge. Thanks for being willing to spread your knowledge. I enjoy learning a thing here and there!

Awesome setup. I have been wanting a 935 for a while now. I don't know if I'll pull the trigger before the season stars or not, but your post isn't making me want one any less, that's for sure.
