Some reason Colonial chokes pop into my head...did they make thin wall chokes at one time ?


I think you are right. Mike Orlen will install them on a gun if the barrel diameter is large enough. I sent him a gun and asked him to either install the thinwall tubes or open the fixed chokes. I had measured the barrels and they were right at the minimum diameter, so Mike would not risk it and just opened them up.

I think that Brileys will install their tubes on almost any gun.

I think they do, but I have not had to buy any for maybe 15 years. Jammed my IM tube in the Citori barrel trying to shoot snow geese with BBB steel. Destroyed the tube getting it out but no damage to the barrel. Just ordered a new tube from my barrel guy, but he has now switched to TruLock for his installations.

I've seen more than one gun that should never have been screw-choked by them. The last one was a beautiful Grulla 30" barreled 410 sidelock that I could see the choke and thread printing through to the outside of the barrels. I sent it back.

....... the Win Mdl 23 should be clearly marked as to what the original chokes were ...... if it was an original factory Win Choked SXS then it should be marked just exactly like the Win Mdl 101s with Win Chokes were marked ...... Happy New Year To You, Jent
