Charlie I wonder if we aren't twins. Since I have a twin brother that would be triplets. Scary thought, huh?

I am not an expert but are the barrels damascus or steel. Seems like I read someware that you will not be able to remove screw in chocks after they have been in the gun for a while. Something to do with dissimaler metals. I may be wrong Iam sure someone will correct me if i am.

I inquired with Mike Orlen about installing chokes in damascus barrels not too long ago. He just flat out said it couldn't be done because the metal isn't strong enough to hold the threading, that I would wind up blowing the choke tubes loose. I didn't check with Briley, but would like to hear from anyone who has successfully had this operation performed on non-fluid steel barrels. I don't exactly view Mike Orlen as the end-all-be-all, but he was a better option than anyone locally.

Choke
I have removed the stock from its bath in acetone. One of the past owners kept the gun well oiled and stored butt down.....
As soon as I can install a repaired stock I will fire a few RST rounds to see how it patterns. If I need to have a choke installed I have enough wall thickness to have the gun jug choked. Any suggestions as to who can do the work if necessary? I live in Northern New Jersey. |
