Default Maverick 88... I am a sucker for anniversaries!!

I treated myself to a nice...and nice and inexpensive... shottie!! - The Maverick 88!

Assembled in Eagle Pass, Texas... in Maverick county... the factory was built in 1988....although it is difficult to tell from my little bit of research whether the first guns "out the door" were in 1988 or 1989.
Anyway, Maverick 88....and this IS 2018 so that is thirty years!! And I celebrated with a purchase. I got the FDE version and have already installed a Slade Street Tactical heat shield made of Plasticote Zytel Fiberglass- say THAT three times fast!
