How can you be sure without gun in hand ?
If the gun is not marked what choke goes in it on the barrel a factory choke is not going to fit.

Glad you got it figured out.
In the past when picking up a gun with after market chokes of unknown identity I've taken pictures of them and measured them. I send the info to one of the aftermarket makers/threaders and they can tell me what it is and if they can make replacements.

After the first shot the rest are just noise.

This whole thing might not be that complicated. If they are WinChokes, then Browning standard Invectors should screw right in. No?

I have read that and I just happen to have some Browning Invector choke tubes. I think there were two versions/lengths of those so I will have to see which ones I have.

Invectors should work. Invector Plus won't work. If they are factory chokes on the gun, barrel should be stamped as such, no guessing required. If barrels are marked with nominal constrictions, then the screw chokes on that gun are aftermarket.

Is there a slight difference in Browning standard Invector chokes and the Winchester version ? This seller has some of each listed Ebay Ebay Check out the descriptions ? The only reason I ran up on these was because I was looking for an imp.mod for a 1984 Belgium Superposed with invector chokes.

Browning never put Invector chokes in the Belgium Superposed, 1984 or ever.

It is my understanding that the threads for WinChoke and Standard (short) Invector are the same. The early WinChokes had a knurled extension and a couple of dimples in the outer circumference to engage the wrench, rather than the slots on Invectors. I have a very nice Smith & Wesson (Howa?) 20 ga pump that came with WinChokes but I don't think I ever bothered to install Invectors in it. Briley could confirm interchangeability.
