14" to thread for chokes or not?

[Lead hammer]

Has anybody got a 14" barrel threaded for chokes?
Say for a Benelli, Mossberg, norinco/Rem etc. I assume it's bad for slugs, but helpful for shot.

My Fabarm's (14" and 11" barrels) are threaded for chokes right out of the factory. However, I haven't purchased any chokes for them.

Some were lucky enough to get the Modified barrel with their 14" 590A1.

Are the Fabarm ones available? I was just reading another thread on them and just got confused lol. That Fabarm is really nice. The Benelli seems good, at least in the store.
Ya I was way too slow with those A1's.

I had the 14" barrel on my Norinco HP9-1 threaded for Winchokes. I keep a modified in it and it works fine. Regular OO buck patterns around 6" at 7 yards.

Yes they are, but they're pricey. 11" version, also a 14" and 16".

Do you remember how it did with the cylinder bore?

My fabarm is threaded for Beecher chokes. My Asil bulldog uses the typical internal chokes and comes with 3.

For a 14" ive never really needed anything except cyl

I had a 12.5 Remington done recently (Remchokes). Worked great. I generally have been leaving the IC choke in, which is a good choice for buck and slugs.

FWIW, Remington's website recommends IC for forster slugs, not CYL.

We shoot slugs through LM or Mod chokes at 3 gun matches all the time.

A breacher choke I guess is an outie, not an innie. Is this how all the Fabarms are? I gotta look on the website again. ( hate that site )

Martial series is an outer screw on choke and the STF series is an inner choke.

Thanks.

TacOrd also does them, they did my 12.5 Remchtoke install. They do the other types as well, but I wanted commonality with other choke systems I already use.

The only thing with remchokes is you need a decent wall thickness at the muzzle. Dlask had to send my 18.5" Maverick 88 barrel back because the wall thickness would have been paper thin if he'd have threaded it. I believe Winchokes use a smaller thread OD and can be used in lighter walled barrels. Benelli's can't be done because they are chrome lined.
