PROPER USE OF INTER

CHANGEABLE CHOKES

1. A few models are equipped

with interchangeable chokes and a

wrench to assemble and disassem

ble them (see figure). These cho-

kes can be identified by the not-

ches on their exposed ends. The

number of notches indicated on

each choke identifies that specific

constriction.. 1 notch = Full (1/1),

2 notches = IM (3/4), 3 notches =

M (1/2), 4 notches = I/C (1/4), 0

notches =Cylinder (0/0). [The No.

before each choke is not required].

WARNING

Before removing, inserting or

changing choke tubes, always

check to make sure that the shot-

gun is unloaded and the safety is

“ON”. Never position your head,

hands or face over the end of the barrel when changing choke tubes.

To remove a choke tube, insert the metal end of the wrench into the

end of the barrel so that the four lugs of the wrench engage the matching

recesses on the top of the choke tube. Turn the wrench counter-clockwi

se to remove the choke tube. Take care not to drop the tube onto hard sur

faces.

Before inserting a choke tube, be sure that its thread and the barrel

thread are clean of any type of dirt or grime. Make sure there is no visi

ble damage to the thin end of the tube that seats in the barrel; if there is

damage DO NOT USE. After these observations then insert it into the

muzzle with the threaded end first. Engage the wrench and turn it in a

clockwise direction to insert and tighten the choke tube until it seats

snugly and is flush with the end of the barrel

Do not use excessive pres

sure to tighten.

If you encounter resistance in seating the choke tube, take it back out,

clean it thoroughly and clean the internal barrel threads with the nylon

thread-cleaning end of the wrench.
