Fixed converted into multi choke?

[Mr Majyk]

If you had a fixed choke shotgun would it be possible to send it of to a gunsmith and have it threaded to accept chokes?

much in the same way a rifle will be threaded to accept muzzle breaks or silencers?

[Mr Majyk]

I believe that is what they do. You're question has been asked a few times (last time quite recently) and Teague always seem to get recommended.

Are you sure you want a multi-choke? Unless you shoot both trap and sporting,personally I wouldn't bother.Most people,once they get used to their gun,stick with 1/4 and 1/4 or 1/4 and 1/2,which willsuffice for 99% of all shooting.

I can understand how a relative newcomer to shooting can grow to believe that swapping chokes around means you'll hit more,but that simply isn't so.

Teague do a very good service I believe,but unless your gun is choked at either end of the scale(1/4 and full for example) then I wouldn't go to the expense,but instead get your gun fitted correctly and practise a consistent mount.Do this and you'll come to realise just how little difference chokes make.
