Mossberg 940 Pro Tactical Spx

Any good product being displayed at the NSSF SHOT Show, which is where the world's gun and gear manufacturers come together with all the latest releases for the year, ought to leave you wondering, “Where will it go from here?” Introduced in 2020, the Mossberg 940 Pro series showed us that the Connecticut-based manufacturer was dedicated to improving on existing designs to continue to offer its faithful clientele the best.

This new shotgun featured a cleaner-running gas system for better reliability in between maintenance intervals, as well as far more shots before it becomes time to pull it apart. The first in the series was its dedicated 3-gun model, built with input from shooting legend Jerry Miculek This showed everybody that it had what it takes to be run extraordinarily fast. Later on, a self-defense-based Pro Tactical model was released, and now, in 2025, we bear witness to the 940 Pro Tactical SPX.

Simply put, the SPX keeps what we love about the 940 and upgrades the conventional components to better suit professionals or anybody who takes tactical shooting seriously. It begins with an expansion of the unique optics cut, which now includes adapter plates for other footprints. This opens the door to nearly any red dot on the market. Without one installed, the cover features a robust ghost-ring sight for added precision with slugs or tight-patterning buckshot. Furniture is beefed up to include an integral heat shield as well as QD sling sockets to run a two-point sling. Among other things, a Vang Comp shell carrier is added to the receiver, which can be removed for filling or repositioning to suit the end-user’s needs.

Two separate groups of writers had the opportunity to test out production samples at a new course being put together at Gunsite Academy, where we would work as a team to solve common self-defense scenarios. Try as we did, we just could not break these things, even in the dusty, sandy conditions that accompany any Arizona outdoor shooting. Mossberg is set to offer the 940 Pro Tactical SPX in a few different SKUs, including a variety of Cerakoted options and models that come with a Holosun HS407K optic pre-mounted and bore sighted. MSRP $1,190 - $1,371, depending upon model chosen; Mossberg.com.
