Busted by "the Byrd" it is nickel...
Not trying to bust you. I just have one like it.
That Mossberg in post #9 looks like genuine stainless rather than the Mariner finish. If I ever found one for sale, I would probably need to buy it.

That looks like the one from Walker Texas Ranger back in the day
So badass! Exactly what I'm looking for....so the hunt begins....
I knew I had seen that somewhere. I believe you are right. Walker used a stainless Mossberg occasionally.
As a kid I always drooled over his truck and that shotgun
The silver Mossberg 500 pictured above isn't stainless steel.......all parts are coated in Marinecote, which was supposed to be more corrosion resistant than stainless steel, especially under saltwater exposure.
All Mossberg 500's have an aluminum receiver.

The reciever is aluminum but the barrel and tube are stainless. I will hopefully eventually talk my cousin out of his.
That may be the only way to get one. The Mossberg web site doesn't show a stainless/aluminum model. Only the Mariner other than the usual blue, black, and camo.
I wish all I had was stainless. Tired of maintenance!
