I've seen almost similar posts and I've asked around a number of gun shops in the Columbus, OH area but I've come up with nothing on this. Is it possible to smith the Mossberg 590 to accept chokes? Or does Mossberg make a threaded 20" barrel to receive chokes? Some of the gun smiths have said it takes special tools that they didn't have.
The reason I ask is that my uncle gave me his and rather than it sit in a gun safe, I wanted to use it for turkey hunting since some of those guns run a shorter barrel (i.e. Remington 870 sps, Mossberg 835 Turkey Thug, etc.). As for cost, I wouldn't mind spending a bit if it meant being able to use it.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. I apologize if I'm repeating another thread or this isn't the right forum (I'm new to The Firing Line).
