When there’s not a second to spare, it is the prepared who don’t second-guess. These are the people who know that nothing goes to plan—until you have one. The time may come when your personal safety comes down to a split-second decision, but that doesn’t mean you have to make that decision in haste. It’s through meticulous preparation ahead of time that homeowners, backpackers, boaters and prudent Americans everywhere are able to safeguard all that they hold dear, as if their very lives depended on it.

Many of these mindful citizens have turned to the compact, 14-inch barrel Mossberg 590® Shockwave for their personal and home protection, but ensuring the advantage is always in your possession takes more than simply owning this game-changing, pump-action firearm—it requires truly making it your own. What’s mounted on must live up to what’s at stake. But make no mistake, we aren’t talking about bells and whistles you can do without—we’re talking acquisition and identification, necessities you can’t pull the trigger without. So you always know what you’re aimed in on and exactly where you’re aiming. Ready to take your readiness to the next level? Here are the Shockwave accessories we’ve picked out that will convince intruders they’ve picked the wrong house. 

Adding Accessories to your Shockwave shouldn't be hard.

UTG INSTANT TARGET AIMING BULLDOT - COMPACT GREEN LASER

Mission: Acquisition. When you’re looking for the advantage in an instant, there’s no time to be searching around for a tiny green dot. That’s why we think UTG really hit the mark with its compact green laser, delivering an 8-inch diameter beam at 50 yards that’s immediately noticeable and impossible to mistake.

UTG 400 LUMEN SUB-COMPACT LED AMBIDEXTROUS PISTOL LIGHT

Identification through Illumination. Why did UTG decide on 400 Lumen output? Because they ran their tests at night, when most intrusions happen, and any less was too dark and any more was too distracting to the operator. It’s the sweet spot of 400 Lumens that identifies targets quickly, with just the right dosage of blinding light to keep intruders guessing.

UTG MOSSBERG 500 SHOTGUN TOP RAIL MOUNT

With your light and laser fixed across this top rail mount, as opposed to side-mounted designs, your room for error gets transferred from horizontal to vertical. Why is this important? Because it is always better to hit your target a little high or a little low as opposed to hitting the lamp he’s standing next to. Shockwave owners count on the firearm’s compact design for operation in close quarters, and the mount, light and laser from UTG perform exceptionally without adding noticeable bulk.

UTG DELUXE UNIVERSAL RIFLE SLING WITH PUSH-BUTTON SWIVEL & QUICK DETACH ADAPTER

It’s the little things you think of now that prevent them from becoming big things later. UTG has once again done the thinking ahead of time, with the design of its trusty rifle sling system. Unfortunately it’s often not until you need something that you realize how much you need it, and with this system, you’ll never be caught off guard when you need to open a door, make a 911 call or pick up your child, without having to put your weapon down.
