Havlin Sales in the USA are THE place for Mossy spares, BUT they are not a non-USA friendly firm, so you'll need a local septic to order for you.
Cheap for lots of stuff, esp. ghost ring sight kits....
If your receiver isn't drilled/tapped its not a huge job for a semi-skilled DIY type.

The Knoxx stock (as on loan to SimG for his 870) is a good bit of kit, I prefer the earlier Gen 1 type - the Gen 2 was a Blackhawk re-do & looks like a lot of their other tat. You can piuck up the earlier ones on EbayUS for not a lot of money.

When you say "pump handle" - are you wanting the full Zombie killer Chainsaw model, or just a Pachmayr or Hogue rubber type?

Stay away from the Tapco junk.

Hogue will post to the UK.

If you need more parts then Brownells UK has some and once you order over £100 shipping is free, which can be a bit of a saving.

A pistol grip on a Mossberg is down to personal taste, but if you're intending any kind of PSG action then the tang mounted safety makes a pistol grip a very slow to operate option. A Remington 870 with it's triggerguard mounted safety lends itself more to pistol grip installation and operation.

While the FAB stuff is okay, some of it would bring the gun under 40", so would make it Section 5.
(i.e. Folding stocks, etc.)

FAB can legally post parts out of Israel, so direct mail order is an option.
