Condor Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 The rubbishy choke key Beretta supply for their extended chokes has given up and I cannot release the choke from my Urika 2 barrel...would like to buy a decent aftermarket choke wrench - have heard that the Briley Speed Wrench fits Beretta Extended chokes like the Optima and Optima Plus - can anyone confirm?? I don't see the point in buying umpteen original Beretta keys as they are really poor quality!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I'm female, of, err, mature years shall we say, approx 5' 2", so if you think I fit the bill as some big meat head overpowering the choke I'm not sure.... You have a PM anyway.

BlaserF3 Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Hi Condor, I use a tapered Teague choke key for my Optima chokes. It does the job OK and is much better than the small wrench that comes with the gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harnser Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) Condor I totally agree with the uselessness of the urka 2 choke key a wonderful gun spoilt by the cheap and nasty choke key . If you get a choke stuck then use a set of mole grips on the choke . I put a piece of leather in the jaws of the mole grips and turn . This method will move the most stubborn choke . Harnser .

VicW Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Why do them up with a choke key? Hand tighten them and get into the habit of checking them between stands.I bet most people give them a tweek anyway to check they are still tight. The Beretta c-spanner thing is as much use as nipples on a fish,a bit like the c-spanners supplied for undoing the gas regulator spring assembly.

Condor Posted September 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 for the help and replies. Will pack a mole wrench in the range bag along with a piece of leather. Also thanks to Viking for sending me a spare Beretta key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 I use the Open Seasons expanding choke key. They don't loosen on their own and are easy enough to undo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
