Remington has a few styles of rifled barrel thy have a 20inch rifled barrel with sights and a 24inch with a cantilever scope mount ,thy also have a slug barrel that is smooth bore with sights that has screw in chokes ,this can be used with shot as well as slugs .a lot of guys go this route so thy can put a xxful choke for turkeys and a rifled choke for sabot slugs .you can slip a mod choke in to us rifled slugs and buck shot as well .might be the best of both worlds .you can shot shot thru a fully rifled barrel it just will not throw a even pattern but will work in a pinch Dutch
