Post by: rebelman on March 22, 2012, 08:15:31 PM
Can you thread a slug barrel to accept a choke? What would this cost?

It all depends on the i.d. and the o.d. You can take a look at the information in this link and probably figure out if you have enough barrel thickness to get the job done.

I hope that helps.

If you could you might not want to. The spin placed on the shotcup may ruin any pattern. How long is that barrel in your pic?
