In terms of functionality, the Mossberg 183DE utilizes a bolt-action system that tends to perform reliably and effectively with its .410 bore caliber, known for its versatility and lower recoil compared to larger gauge shotguns. Originally designed with a plain one-piece pistol grip stock, the 183 series was notable for its inclusion of two choke tubes—modified and full—that could be easily swapped out by screwing onto the outside of the barrel, showcasing an early innovation in shotgun versatility. This shotgun was shipped with a wrench specifically for choke tube removal, ensuring that users could adapt the firearm to fit their shooting needs. As the 183DE variant emerged in the production line, it featured a slimmer barrel design, manufactured between 1960 and 1963, further illustrating the continuous evolution and refinement that characterized the Mossberg line. Overall, the Mossberg 183DE remains a cherished option among collectors and shooting enthusiasts, valued for its reliable performance and classic styling in the .410 bore category.
