Mossberg 500 trigger group

Last week I took my new to me Mossberg out for a bit of range time. At first all was good and had a blast making holes in various things. Slugs - they're my new favourite thing!

It then disgraced itself by failing to extract, failing to fire and eventually part of the cartridge extractor assembly fell out! FUG!

Turns out that the two poxy little tabs at the front of the plastic trigger assembly have worn/broken off causing the whole assembly to 'droop' down.

RFD has said that he'll have it back to sort it out however it's obvious what is wrong and rather than transfer it there and back does anyone know of a source for the assemblies?

Answer the phone = avoid a potential fine of that M27 in penalty fees...

The only thing that fell out of my trigger group was a bumble bee

It's a common fault with the 500. I believe the 590 group is metal and will fit the 500. It is a suggested upgrade by many if you can find it.
