Manual
Proper Use of Interchangeable Chokes
1. Your Aurora Series shotgun is equipped with five inter-
changeable choke tubes, and wrench: full (1), improved
modified (2), modified (3), improved cylinder (4) and
cylinder (0) choke constrictions. (See Figure 7.) These
choke constrictions can be identified by the notches on
their exposed ends. The number in paren-theses after
each choke designation above indicates the number of
notches identifying that constriction.
WARNING
Before removing, inserting or changing choke tubes, always check
to make sure that the gun is unloaded and that the safety is “ON”.
Never position your head, hands or face over the end of the barrel
when changing choke tubes.
2. To remove a choke tube, insert the metal end of the choke tube 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-clockwise to
remove the choke tube.
3. Before inserting a choke tube, be sure it is clean of any dirt or grime. Then
insert it into the muzzle with the threaded end last, engage the choke tube
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 pressure to tighten.
4. 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 choke wrench.
5. Seminole competition choke tubes are provided with TT Series shotguns.
These choke tubes have a knurled end that allow the user to screw the tube
into the barrel. The tubes should be snug (finger tight) when installed.
Constrictions are identified by color bands on each tube - match the correct
color with the guide found on the choke tube storage box.
6. Never fire the shotgun without having the chokes completely installed.
Doing so could damage your barrel, the internal threads or the choke (which
would not be covered under your warranty), and cause personal injury.
