Mossberg 500 Mariner JIC 12 Gauge Firearm, 18.5-Inch, Marinecote

The Mossberg 500 Mariner JIC in 12 gauge (brand part no. 52340) is a pump-action firearm built around an 18.5-inch cylinder-bore barrel, finished in a corrosion-resistant silver Marinecote coating with a rugged synthetic pistol-grip stock rather than a shoulder stock, keeping it factory-classified as a standard firearm. Mossberg builds the Mariner JIC (‘Just In Case’) as a marine-ready package with a bead front sight for fast target acquisition. Among pump shotguns in the pump action shotguns category, the Mariner JIC favors boaters and marine-environment shooters who need corrosion resistance in a compact package.
