Rem Chokes? I'm confused....

they have threads in the same place its just the amount that sticks out of the gun itself that is different ... there are flush chokes if you dont want anything sticking out longer
 
From what I can see in the pictures, they appear to have different threading systems. One would have a thread at the end of the barrel but the choke does not extend further in to the barrel. The other the choke extends in the barrel a few inches with the thread still on the end of the barrel. I'm just guessing but I would bet a gun smith would be able to mount for ether design.
 
now i see what your talking about. i'm wondering if one of the pics is just a generic pic and they have it pictured for a remington. your right they have the threads in a different location. also one of them seems to have finer thread then the other.

i think it might just be the pic. other wise save both pics and send an email to remington and ask them about it? if they use two different systems or what?
 
The silver one is made for the Remington sporting shotguns and fits inside the barrel for a flush fit.

The black one is made specifically for the Remington HD (home defense) shotguns and butts up to the end of the barrel.

Wingmaster HD (Heavy Density) is a brand of waterfowl/varmint ammo and these extended chokes are "optimized" for that specific ammo.

You are right and they donot interchange. many do not know but there was actually actually three ( maybe 4) different thread designs fitted by remington in their guns and all three are different and will not interchange.
The first one threads were on the bottom of the choke and it was called the flat thread, tubes were made by briley for just two years 1985 and 1986. They are impossible to find and have to be special ordered through briley at 80.00 a pop.
In 1987 remington came out with the common rem choke which also has a bottom thread but very fine. This is the common rem tube.
Then they also started supplying competition ( sporting) guns with remington pro bore tubes these have finer threads but are on the top of the tubes.They also came out with the water fowl series which you show in your other pic which is also on the opposite end of the tube like the pro bore.
Now I have been told the pro bore thread and the waterfowl thread are interchangable but I have no water fowl tubes to try in my pro bore barrel. Now here is where it gets confusing just lately we are also seeing a version of the water fowl tubes with bottom threads that will interchange with rem chokes. So make sure you match what your barrel has in it now.
On the pro bore & waterfowl with the outside end threads I would ask remington if I had a gun fitted with either one of those two before I bought new ones to see if they indeed interchange. One thing is for sure early flat thread tubes or common rem chokes will not fit these guns. Hope that helps. take care
