The date is very helpful to know. The location, even more so.

I’d been wanting to send a VH 12 gauge 2 frame to Kolar and have it tubed , but had always come up with reasons not to . Now I just might have a good reason to have it done .

On a side note , when I went to Christmas Hill in January or February for the Pheasent shoot one of the fellows there had one of those CZ 12 gauge 30” hammer guns . No I didn’t fire it , but for a utilitarian usable don’t care if I beat it up gun I’d say it was a hit !

I have a Kolar gun and have shot Kolar tubes for 35 years.
But if I was going to tube a gun today it would have to be Briley’s here is why.
Briley will custom make full length fitted tubes same as Kolar.
It is way easier to play with chokes with the Briley tubes, with Kolar’s the outside diameter of the choke is fit to your bore so if you want different chokes then what came with it you need to send it back to Kolar.
With Briley the chokes are internal threads, you can simply buy what you want and they send it to you. You can even exchange chokes with Briley’s for just shipping.

Usually when ever I've had a gun tubes I had Kolar include skeet and just a hair tighter for each tube .And that's about all a tubed gun of mine will be used for , You are quite correct in your opinion I just prefer to stick with Kolar they were always good to me with any problems that may have arisen . Not to say Briley wouldn't be as well , but for skeet tubes I have a brand loyalty
