Ive made a deal with another member here to buy his single shotshell loading setup, components and some tools. When all of that shows up all I will need is buckshot and TSS.
Thinking about this little 20" shotgun, i will get the barrel drilled for chokes but I was curious about cutting the barrel down. Ive got a 26" BPS already and this one is 20", why not just go down to 18.5" if I am bringing it to a gunsmith? What I was curious about, say i get it drilled and tapped for Invector Plus chokes with the threads on the bottom. Could I have the 20" barrel drilled and tapped for chokes AND THEN cut 1" or 1.5" inches off the muzzle, leaving the Invector threads. I could then cut a couple factory chokes in half for a 18.5 or 19" barrel plus still be able to thread in full length factory chokes to get 20". Is that a feasible idea or are the exposed factory chokes going to cause problems, not having enough support for the barrel??? I would rather leave it 20" than cause problems but if I could swap chokes to gain or lose and inch, that might be nice.
