Title: Choking a single shot 20 ga
Post by: chongo469 on July 09, 2011, 11:50:16 AM: So the H&R 20 ga that i bought is a standard full choke with no threads for adding a different choke....Anyone have any ideas of how I can choke this thing without being to expensive?.....I was either thinking of tapping it to a common choke threading, not sure what else is out there.....For what it is, it is not worth sinking a bunch of $$$ into, but thought someone may have done this in the past...

1. You can have the choke opened to fixed choke of your choice. Kesselring will do that for about $85

2. You can have it fitted for removable chokes which will cost you quite a bit more.
