Engineering & Performance
The 835’s design prioritizes operational reliability and versatility. Its chambering system reliably accommodates 2.75-inch, 3-inch, and 3.5-inch shotgun shells, allowing for broad ammunition selection, from light target loads to heavy magnum hunting ammunition. The 26-inch vent rib barrel is optimized for balanced swing dynamics and consistent patterning across various engagement distances. External durability is addressed by the Mossy Oak Break-Up Country camouflage pattern, which provides effective concealment in varied natural environments while acting as a protective finish against environmental stressors. Internally, the shotgun leverages Mossberg’s established twin action bars, dual extractors, and an anti-jam lifter to ensure smooth, consistent cycling and feed reliability, even under demanding operational parameters.
