I believe that it is worth the money to get the 590A1.

The Mossberg 590a1 is an extremely tough firearm, built with an aluminum receiver, metal trigger guard, and metal safety. The 590 has proven it's self in combat. I can tell you how durable the 590a1 is because I carry it with me when backpacking for 5+ days.

It's not that the 500 is a bad gun. In fact if you never put your gun through the extreme you will be fine. But if you want a rugged gun with a proven reputation through mother natures worst, then the 590a1 is for you.
