Fabian Connolly up in Leitrim [Fab guns] did mine, a thin wall barrel on a Rem 1100, which is a really tricky bit of machine work.Can't fault his work on this.

I have a fixed choke shotgun i bought years ago, it knocks everything i point it at, from skeet to dtl to sporting clays. Don't have a breeze what the chokes are and have come to the conclusion it does not really matter. I see lads on clay ranges fiddling with choke tubes, especially when they miss a few.

Why do you want to multi-choke the gun ? Is there a specific need you have ?

Teague chokes in the Uk could probably do it in addition to the lads mentioned.

ya i have used it for everything up to now and while its ok. its full / extra full choke. trap gun. i mainly shoot trap so its been grand up to now . but you really have to be bang on with everything at close range no scope for error at all . it just basically makes it harder than it has to be . and why make life harder than it has to be . honestly cant imagine shooting skeet with it whatever about sporting.

ya Teague uk has been what i was thinking all along but its a nightmare to get it shipped over . lots of paperwork but worse than that it would mean a few months without the gun . so if i could get it done in Ireland it would be infinitely easier

Spare set of barrells with chokes might be an option.

The good thing about it being a trap gun is there is a bit of meat at the end of the barrels to work with. Another option is to keep the fixed chokes, just have them opened out a bit, 1/4 in the top and 3/4 in the bottom barrel or something like that.

no barrell selector always fires bottom first so other way around but ya get your point . wouldnt work either though as i shoot pretty much all clay disciplines so would need to be able to tighten it up for the likes of Olympic Trap . really needs to be multichoke so options are buy another gun for sporting / skeet or get this multichoked .

Its a good excuse to buy another gun, a sporter, maybe a game gun too, and sure why not a skeet gun too

Or buy if you can find one a Finnish Valmet system.Was about ten different O/U combos,that went from a double rifle to a multi-purpose double barrel shotgun system.Cost a fortune even in the 80s,but you would never need another gun after that.
