Remington could cut some good chokes, witness the great patterns from the Model 31 TC Trap Guns. I thumbed thru my Remington paper from 1934 to WW-II. In 1934 they offered their shotguns with full, modified and cylinder bore, except for the Model 32 Skeet Gun which was improved cylinder in both barrels. By 1936 they had introduced their "Special Skeet Boring" and also offered Full, modified or cylinder. By 1938 they were also cataloguing improved cylinder. Bottom line, none of my Remington catalogue from 1934 through 1942 offer an improved modified choke. The Remington era Parker catalogue states "The barrels of PARKER guns, including the "TROJAN" are furnished with any combination of borings desired--from true cylinder to extreme full choke."

Down in New Haven, in 1931, Winchester added improved cylinder and improved modified to their choke offerings.
