Mighty Ruler Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 I’ve just bought a Laurona O/U with full and 3/4 chokes that extend about 10mm past the barrels. I could do with a 1/4 choke but the only one I can find extends about double that, could it be cut off to match the other or am I going to have to buy a full set?

Fen tiger Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 If you shorten the long choke you will lose some constriction so that tube will then be a more open choke. I had aLaurona years ago and AFAIK it was True choke threads same as Baikals have, you can buy them most of the choke companys, Brownells sell chokes from several manufacturers. . Mandel Chokes in the north east could well do truetube chokes. Briley don’t or didn’t offer truechoke tubes but could ask see if they do now. .

Mighty Ruler Posted January 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Thanks for the answers. It was a Mandel choke I was thinking of cutting down to match the factory ones but according to an old PW thread these chokes only fit newer Lauronas.

motty Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 You could just use the slightly longer choke as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancer425 Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 I say leave it alone buy another Mandel choke to match the one you have is my advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Ruler Posted January 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Yeah, but that would look a bit naff, one long and one short. Can anyone confirm that Mandel Chokes fit a 1984 Laurona. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fen tiger Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Some ordering details, and contact info, best to ask to be sure of fit. £30 not that expensive. http://www.shotgunchokes.co.uk/laurona.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Ruler Posted January 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Just checked it again, it’s half and full that I’ve got, got confused by the American system. As a complete beginner what do you think is a good choke combination, I was thinking perhaps quarter and half? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motty Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Nothing wrong with half and full. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
