Interesting question Brent and one I had not considered. Of course if I can find factory ones I will buy them, but I will keep this as a viable alternative.

Perry, if it worked, there would be no question of correct fit.

Probably why you haven't considered it is because cutting extended chokes flush with the barrel is not a viable option and makes no sense at all....all you could hope for is to ruin the chokes you have.

I believe the 23 came after win chokes...If the chokes are factory it should be marked somewhere on the barrels.

If not then they are aftermarket thin wall chokes there's not but two thin wall choke manufacturers to look for....Briley and one more can't recall the name of the other I want to say Trulock ?

I'd keep my fingers crossed hoping they were Brileys.

Don't answer him jOe. He's one of those rude and nasty guys who is ruining this forum and driving nice folks away with ugly comments like this:

Don't fall out of your armchair - or is that a highchair....

What an idiot.

I am picking the gun up tomorrow and then I will know for sure. Thanks to all for the comments and help. I only saw the extended chokes for long enough to know that I don't care for them and with the intended use on pheasants can't imagine doing a quick change, or any change for that matter, from IC in the right barrel and Modified in the left. That is, IF this gun patterns my Golden Pheasant plated #5's like I want it to with this combination.

I have a moment, so Ill throw in my two cents.
And I am completely unfamiliar with the modern shotgun about which this thread was started.

However, Its not uncommon for an aftermarket choke tube to have the choke section outside of the carrier barrel. I have seen, shotguns that had after market thin walled choke tubes installed in them, that didnt have enough wall thickness in the threaded area to keep the barrels from splitting.

So, I would encourage you to have the Smith vett all of that with micrometers.
Just a word of caution before cutting off any choke tubes.


Out there doing it best I can.

It's obvious lead poisoning has efflicted BrentD's brain cells if he thinks cutting an extended choke tube flush with the end of the barrel is logical solution.

Sounds like a job for our resident gun farmer.
