Great piece but Hardware is not included
After installing a Heat Shield on another's 590A1, I decided mine needed one too! It's a bit of a tricky install, but the end result looks great. The biggest pain is ordering all of the pieces separately, and if one is out of stock you may left waiting months like I was.
Well Built, Limited Functionality
As the other reviewers mentioned, this product inexplicably comes with NO mounting hardware. Make sure to order the spacer, bolts, and nuts at the same time as the heatshield because those items are also special orders and take the same 8 weeks to ship. Something else that isnt apparent until you get the heatshield in your hands is that it will not slide over a barrel with ghost ring sights (its designed to be installed on a barrel with bead sights). If you have ghost rings sights (like I did), you have to use a mallet to pound the front clips over the skinny portion of the barrel up front, but far enough backward that the rear clips are just behind the rear of the barrel. This does mar the finish, but not too badly. I then slid the heatshield forward, using brute force to pry apart the rear clips enough so that they slide over the rear end of the barrel. This is a pain to install, but when bolted down the heatshield is rock solid and keeps your hands out of contact with the hot barrel. Ultimately, unless youre planning on mounting and actually using a bayonet on your 590A1, I do not think it is worth the expense or hassle to install.
