H&R 12 gauge help

[mossybird]

I'm looking to build a dedicated dirt napper out of a fixed modified choke 3"

3" inch H&R single shot. Can it be drilled and tapped for a 12 yr olf

I've heard that most smiths will not tap a H R 12.  My son has a 20ga and we epoxied sights on the barrel, they are not coming off!!  I have heard of many folks epoxying on a scope base.  Also you might be interested to know that over on the shotgun world forums is a fellow named Mike Orlen who will thread a barrel for chokes for 35$.  He has highly recommended on the forum and has a lot of feedback.  I have not had  him do any work, but am planning on it.  My sons is mod choke also and we got good patterns out to 35 with hevi 7s.  I also filled the hole in the buttstock with lead shot to reduce the recoil of the 3 inch mag shells.

Someone is tapping them. I have seen several guns on the 20 gauge forum that have  been drilled and tapped.

You can put a mount on one of them.  I have milled part of the rib of on a 20 ga then put the mount.    Now as for the treading of the barrel most all the choke companies can do it.  I would look around a few shop in you part of the woods you may find one that can do it.
