Philip16storm Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Hi all, I have just bought a second hand M2, I have ordered a teague choke which has arrived problem is that it doesn't thread in all the way! The thread on the gun is right at the end of the barrel and doesn't let the shank of the choke in, it should only leave the chequered extension piece out shouldnt it? I have measured it and the inner end of the choke does reach the stop in the barrel, is there only one type of choke for the m2? Any help appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TIGHTCHOKE Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 It should be a Beretta Mobil fit I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scully Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 (edited) If it’s up tight against the rebate inside the barrel, and there is no lip or ridge, then it’s good to go as far as I’m aware. Have just had a look at my M1. It is fitted with Briley Spectrum extended chokes, and when fastened up tight there is about a gap of about between 1 to 2mm between the muzzle and the knurled part of the choke.

figgy Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 (edited) It's Optima choked, my Supersport uses the same chokes. Only thing to watch for is Optima bored Beretta barrels are back bored/overbored, the Benelli is not and uses the nominal bore measurements. This makes a Beretta choke not the same in a Benelli, use 1/2 Beretta choke is near 1/4 choke in a Benelli. Worth checking your M2 proof measurement on the barrel before ordering chokes.

Exudate Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Pretty sure I ordered Benelli Crio from Teague for my M2, and it fits fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
figgy Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Benelli crio is a Beretta fitment choke. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scully Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Briley chokes for my M1 are designated Crio. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
figgy Posted Monday at 17:38 Share Posted Monday at 17:38 (edited) 👍 Benelli Crio and Beretta Optima are the same. Benelli Crio Plus and Beretta Optima Plus are the same. Pinched off the web it will help. Edited Monday at 17:42 by figgy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’d looked on the Benelli site and couldn’t find what I was looking for, but the Briley site explained them clearly, then I bought some off a mate who is selling his Beretta.

figgy Posted Monday at 18:50 Share Posted Monday at 18:50 (edited) Just check the bore size on your M1 Scully as Beretta use an overbored barrel.and Benelli don't so the Beretta choke markings are out. Beretta 1/2 will be 1/4 in Benelli. Edited Monday at 18:52 by figgy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

figgy Posted Tuesday at 16:22 Share Posted Tuesday at 16:22 Makes no difference if they're for Beretta Optima bore Scully they don't coincide with Benelli measurements. The two guns bores differ by between.3 & .4mm with a qaurter of choke being .25mm at .4 it's near half a choke difference. Even though they fit just adjust your choice to suit.

I’m not sure it will make much difference to my shooting; I can miss just as well with skeet as I can with full. 🙂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
