Shotgun choke threading

[AllenM]

so, this is my mental defect, I complain about always being to busy.
but give me one day of being caught up and I start looking for other things to add to my work load.

Anyway, would there be much demand for choke threading? It's not cheap to tool for and the only setup I have is old style Winchoke.
But I am considering adding to that if you guys think there would be much demand.

What does it cost to have a shotgun barrel threaded?
Can any shotgun barrel be threaded?

 

[AllenM]

If it is stripped down barrel like this one, $125.00

Doing 10 gauge SBS?

If you want to cover all the 1 time use tool purchase

I would be interested.

Just for me, I doubt I would ever have one done. I have newer shotguns with tubes. The older fixed choke guns, I wouldn’t want to change them Because they are old Belgian Brownings mostly.

Sir, as a master machinist & a safety guy, may I say, with out any barrel support, like a stead rest, you are flirting with disaster.
The pilot on the tap is not suitable for work support.
A cheap & dirty way to do a support on a tapered item, is to get tube out of a roll of TP , grease up the inside, slide this over the barrel, bring the steady rest up the work and proceed.

Unless you are going into it bigtime -Tooling expense for the hundred different chokes would be expensive. browning alone has three choke types in four different gauges.

I know thats why I have not pursued it, however there are rental alternatives to buying for each one. This doesn't overly excit me. But I do get a few requests I am just throwing

De

I would be interested.

Details? It's kind of a case by case thing

Two different shotguns. One is a Mossberg 930 Tactical that is not threaded for choke tubes the other is a short, but legal NEF single shot that was cut down short and it eliminated any choke. The NEF is for quick access to control critters that get too close to the house.

Old fixed choke 12 ga Remington barrel (1100). Would be interested in getting it threaded for Rem-Chokes, but was told the barrel was too thin.

 

[zoglog]

I was just looking today at a few 410 for my boys. And wondering if anyone local threaded barrels.

Yeah I had Allen do my Mossberg 930 shotgun barrel a couple of years ago and it's perfect.
If I remember right, that one die does all these chokes:
Mossberg Accu-choke
Winchester Win-choke
Browning Invector
Weatherby Multi-choke
