Key Features
Adjustable Length of Pull — This shotgun ships with spacers that let you grow the stock from 11 inches to 12.5 inches, so it fits a young shooter as they get bigger without buying a new gun.
18.5-Inch Vent-Rib Barrel — The short barrel keeps the gun nimble in tight cover or a duck blind, while the vent rib reduces mirage on warm days and gives a clear sight plane.
Dual Bead Sights — A brass front bead and a mid-bead give you a consistent cheek weld and quick reference for swing-through shooting on moving targets.
Top-Mounted Tang Safety — Located right under your thumb on the top of the receiver, this safety is simple to reach and works the same for lefties and righties without any switch or modification.
Light Recoil .410 Gauge — The .410 bore produces noticeably less kick than a 20 or 12 gauge, making it ideal for new shooters learning fundamentals or for small-frame users who want a reliable scattergun.
Who It’s For
The Mossberg 510 Mini Super Bantam is for youth shooters, small-stature adults, and anyone looking for a lightweight .410 for casual plinking, small-game hunting, or introducing new shooters to shotguns. It’s also a solid choice for a truck gun or camp shotgun where weight and compact size matter.
Pros and Cons
Pro: Adjustable stock grows with the shooter, extending the gun’s useful life.
Pro: Ambidextrous tang safety is intuitive and easy to manipulate under stress.
Pro: Light recoil and light weight make it a forgiving training platform.
Con: The 2+1 capacity is limiting for home defense or competition use, but that’s typical for youth .410 pumps in this class.

The Mossberg 510 beats the fixed-stock Mossberg 500 Youth with its adjustable LOP, and it costs more than the H&R Pardner Pump but offers better ergonomics and the Mossberg reliability reputation.
