So are you still planning to bring in grizzly barrels threaded for chokes? Iirc last year you mentioned that it might be happening at some point, I’m looking at having my 12.5” barrel threaded but thought I’d double check with you guys first.

When I had a 12.5 threaded barrel from canam before, the standard rem choke actually protrudes from the barrel a bit. Or at least it did when I bought one a few years ago. Looks horrible. Don't even know if canam has "short" 870 chokes for their threaded 12.5 barrels. Things for you to consider. Maybe not even issues anymore.
 
Pretty sure they are not even threaded for rem choke, its actually the winchester win choke/ browning invector (early version) Please correct me Canam if I am wrong.

I had a tactical ninja'esque breaching choke thats rem threaded and it screwed in fine but just didn't sit flush with the end of the 12.5 barrel. Maybe later versions of the 12.5 were threaded other than Rem

Like this but 12.5

How far did it stick past the muzzle? All the grizzly barrels I’ve seen pics off that came threaded from the factory the chokes were flush with the end of the muzzle, though they were not threaded for rem chokes from what I remember. Win chokes I think, I was just told that rem chokes and win chokes have the same thread but have the threading in different locations on the choke. One is further forward than the other, don’t hold me to it as I haven’t compared them side by side.
 
Grizzly are basically on indefinite hiatus due to high prices. Once we know, we'll post, but I have no info until something happens, if ever

For now they have been replaced by the Kodiak
 
Think you'd be able to get the Turkish manufacturers to make 870 compatible barrels of various lengths that are choke threaded? Or does that seem like the kind of thing they'd be interested in putting out?
