Targeting hunters who thrive on high-volume shooting and dream of an unlimited round count to take on clouds of show geese, the 12-gauge Mossberg 940 Pro Snow Goose autoloading shotgun answers the call with a serious 12+1 capacity.
Built for snowy, cold hunts, this attractive shotgun boasts a TrueTimber Viper Snow stock and furniture with a Battleship Gray Cerakote barrel. Frankly, it looks like it could have been pulled from the hands of a “Star Wars” Stormtrooper – take note Hollywood. I loved the looks, sure, but it was the promise of speed, capacity, and shootability that really piqued my interest.
Mossberg actually launched an entire lineup of 940 Pro field and waterfowl guns last September, and I was fortunate enough to get my hands on one of the Snow Goose testing guns before they disappeared about as fast as Jerry Miculek can empty a five-shot revolver (0.57 seconds, FYI). In fact, Jerry himself had a hand in the 940 Pro’s development, and it shows. So, here’s what it’s like to have and shoot the Snow Goose. First, let’s dig into what makes this gun tick.
