It is a good design, manufactured with high quality materials and is VERY strong. However, whether or not your particular gun is in safe-to-shoot condition can only be determined by a qualified person, such as a gunsmith.

Yeah this guy is dead on. I have a mossberg 20 gage bolt action, and it is excellent when maintained. However, keep in mind, safe can also mean how you use it! Don't ever point it near someone, and have the safety on when you are not shooting!

If you are talking about the bolt action. Just queeze the trigger before riding the bolt back. It should come straight out. This is of course providing the rifle has been cleared and safe to work on.
If in good condition Yes. I have a Mossberg Model 185 and 190 and squirrel hunt with them all the time.
Whatever someone is willing to pay for it.
About $75-100. These were durable, utility grade hunting firearms- made for "the working man". Although there is very little collector interest, these were well made, safe, reliable firearms. I have a couple of Mossberg bolt actions that I keep as a "loaner" gun when a visitor hunts with me, and did not bring a shotgun.
To load a Mossberg 183DC .410 shotgun, first ensure the firearm is pointed in a safe direction and is on safe. Open the action by pulling the forearm back to expose the chamber and the magazine tube. Insert .410 shotgun shells into the magazine tube until it is filled to capacity, which is typically 4 rounds. Finally, close the action by pushing the forearm forward, making sure the shotgun is ready for use.
To remove the bolt action from a Western Auto Revelation .243, first ensure the firearm is unloaded and pointed in a safe direction. Open the bolt and locate the bolt release lever, typically found on the right side of the receiver. Depress the release while pulling the bolt rearward to completely remove it from the action. Always consult the owner's manual for specific instructions related to your model.
DON'T DO THIS UNLESS THE MAKER SAYS IT IS SAFE TO DO SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A single shot gun is safer because the operator does not have to remember how many live loads are left in the magazine. A bolt action is safer because the operator can leave the bolt open to make it obvious to themselves and others that the gun is in "safe" mode. Thus, for example, the operator can walk in the field with the action open, and then, when appropriate, load a single cartridge and fire. This is a simple, safe and teachable method for beginners.
It's not to be confused with SPORTS, which is immediate action.Remedial action for the M16:Place the weapon on safe (or try to)Remove the magazinePull back on the charging handle and lock the bolt to the rearPlace the weapon on safe (if you have not already done so or been able to do so).
The Western Field Model SB 100 B is a shotgun that is often associated with the Mossberg 500 series. Therefore, barrels from Mossberg 500 shotguns may interchange with the SB 100 B, but it's important to verify compatibility based on specific models and configurations. Always ensure that the barrel fits properly and is safe to use with your firearm.
To load a .410 Ranger 101 bolt-action shotgun, first ensure the firearm is pointed in a safe direction and the safety is engaged. Open the bolt to expose the chamber, then insert a .410 shotgun shell into the chamber. Close the bolt securely, and if applicable, you can also load additional shells into the magazine if the firearm has one. Always remember to check that the firearm is unloaded when not in use.
To remove the bolt from a Model 30A, first ensure the firearm is unloaded and pointed in a safe direction. Open the action and locate the bolt release, typically found on the right side of the receiver. Press the bolt release while simultaneously pulling the bolt handle to the rear until it clears the receiver. Once fully retracted, the bolt can be removed from the receiver.
