  Dean, unfortunately it cannot as the tube is blocked and and used only for pumping the slide. This is the same as the Mossberg detachable magazine models. Cheers and stay safe!

• Q: Is the Marine model some kind of "more corrosion resistant" finish?

  • Answered
  • Asked 01/23/2021 13:35 by Paul C

  A:

  It is indeed just the name of the color/pattern this is a Cerakote (same as the other colors) cerakote has excellent corrosion resistance but can chip off if impacted, but the Hanguard and other cerakoted parts are aluminum, and aluminum isn't very prone to rust or corrosion due to low iron content.
