QuestionI have a Mossberg 5500 MKII 12 GA and want to get a rifled barrel for it. Do you know if any mossberg barrel can work? This gun was usually a combo but did not come with the rifled barrel.
AnswerHi Alex.
You can't use just any barrel, although you might be able to use several different types as long as they are original barrels made by Mossberg to fit the 5500. Refer to your owners manual or call Mossberg at 1-800-363-3555 to be sure which barrels are compatible.
If you don't have the owners manual then you can obtain a manual for free by calling Mossberg or emailing your request to
[email protected] (include the firearm model and your street address). Here is a link to a basic parts diagram:

You can also contact any of the following places to see about purchasing a replacement barrel:
