If you have a fixed choke shotgun, how much does it cost to have a choke system installed. Which ones would you recommend and any recommendations on people you've used would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

FWIW- I sent a barrel to Briley years ago and it was 150. I just used the Briley tubes with it. I would call and check on the price, but hopefully that gives you a starting point

It can vary quite a bit depending on what gun/barrel you have. Try Ed Graham in Ingomar, he is a real craftsman especially with older guns (and has a treasure trove of old Browning parts) 662-316-0981. Richey Crew just up the road from you in Algoma is also good. He's pretty backed up this time of year but does good work.

I had a 20 gauge barrel for my son shortened, retreaded(only got one briley choke with it) for $85. I couldn't buy the bit and tap for that price to do it my self.

Agreed on Richey Crew. He repaired an old Remington 878, for me, and the new parts all look old... like the shotgun. Can't tell anything was done to it.
