Is it just me, but the Maverick 88 seems like some kind of a clone/cross of an rem 870. Perhaps if have to find 2 to sit down side by side.
The barrel and attachment, mag tube seem to be Mossberg 500, and the reciever/trigger groups a rem 870...

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

No, they don't really have anything in common with an 870 except appearance/location of the safety. They are all Mossberg 500, with just a slightly different trigger group and the safety is at the rear of the receiver. Otherwise pretty much all the parts are interchangeable with a 500. I have one of each in the safe, and personally like either one better than an 870.
