Well, I bought my first shotty. I passed on the maverick 88, nearly got the 500/590, and ended up with an 835 all purpose for the Magnum 3 1/2” option. 24” length.
.....as I have only pistols, i have new guy shotgun questions.
(1) So does this “accu mag” need specific chokes? I know the gun is overbored to almost a 10ga so stands to reason I have to run accu mag chokes only, but since I’m shopping, I’m asking.
(2) is there any ammo aside of slugs i cannot or should not shoot? Also, are my limitations only due to chokes. Also also, can/should i run with the choke removed for certain loads to prevent damaging them? (Or is that what full choke is)
(3) i bought this used from a gun store ive gotten many guns from. They sell good firearms with a 30 day wty, but they do not service or clean them so i need to knock off a little grim from inside the barrel and lube the gun. What types of cleaners are used for these? I typically use Hoppes cleaner + lube all in one then follow with Hoppes gun lube for my pistols. I’m not asking about brands specifically just kinds.
(4) this choke that came in it looks very thick walled to me, can you guess which one it may be?
Thanks a bunch!
