Shotgun Chokes

Can I Change the Choke on my Shotgun?

Most modern shotguns are threaded to use removable/replaceable choke tubes. Check your owners manual to verify that your shotgun uses swappable chokes.

What are the Different Types of Shotgun Chokes and Their Uses?

There are 4 types of Shotgun Chokes.
Cylinder Choke: Provides a wider pattern through the shot range at the cost of total range.
Improved Choke: Narrows the pattern compared to a cylinder choke to improve range.
Modified Choke: The middle ground "do it all" shotgun choke provides adequate range and a good shot pattern for most hunting bird applications.
Full Choke: The tightest pattern and longest range option, usually the go-to option for turkey hunters.

How Do I Choose The Right Choke For My Suppressed Shotgun?

Shotgun suppressors require corresponding chokes, you can find the appropriate SilencerCo Salvo Chokes and JK Armament CRMD Chokes at Silencer Shop.

How Does a Choke for a Suppressor Affect Shotgun Pattern and Range?

Some shotgun suppressor chokes work the same way as traditional chokes and also allow a suppressor to be mounted. Other shotgun suppressor chokes do not influence the pattern and instead the suppressors use interchangable choke endcaps to help shape the shot pattern.
