The Mossberg Maverick 88 Cruiser 12 gauge pump action shotgun is a no-nonsense, affordable workhorse built for hunters and shooters who want serious functionality without the premium price tag. This 20-inch barreled shotgun handles 3-inch magnum loads and carries 8 rounds total (7 in the tube, 1 in the chamber), making it a solid choice for waterfowl, upland game, home defense, or clay shooting. The Maverick 88 platform has proven itself across thousands of American gun safes—it's the kind of shotgun that just works, shot after shot, season after season.
Mossberg engineered this model around a straightforward design philosophy: reliability without frills. The 20-inch barrel sports a cylinder bore choke for a wide shot pattern and comes topped with a simple bead sight. The synthetic pistol-grip stock (black) is durable and weather-resistant, perfect for the field or truck rack. At 6 pounds and 30.375 inches overall, it's compact and handy—not so heavy that you'll feel it after a long day, not so short that you sacrifice shootability. The blued barrel is classic Mossberg, a finish that's proven in hard use.
Whether you're breaking clay, hunting mallards in a marsh, or keeping a reliable 12 gauge within arm's reach, the Maverick 88 Cruiser delivers the performance and value Mossberg's reputation is built on. It's the gun for folks who care more about what a shotgun does than what it costs.
