Title: Need Rem 20 ga barrel shotened
Post by: schief on May 08, 2020, 08:07:14 PM
I recently purchased a Rem 1187 20ga full camo with 26" barrel. Want to get it cut to 21" and threaded for a Rem choke tube. Anyone had this done and by whom

Check with a local gunsmith. If that doesn't work try Briley.

I just recently bought a 21" Remington factory replacement barrel, factory iron sights, and Remington super full choke for $199 from optics planet to replace my 26" vent rib barrel. Sighted in yesterday and will hunt it in the morning. The barrel needs deep cleaned to remove the factory oil but other than that I really like it. It doesn't seem to pattern as well as my 26" barrel but haven't had time to tinker with it. Will after season as we only have two days left but it throws 130's in 10" at 40 with undertaker and HWT 7's.
