The military did install Poly Chokes on their training shotguns. I spoke with a guy at Poly Choke some years ago and he said they still have the machinery to install the chokes with the army...
My Mosin Nagants like Albanian ammo. It may be difficult to find now. On the commercial side, two of my rifles shoot minute of angle with Wolf 200 gr sp......chris3

A shooting bud of mine has one. Nice gun. A bit heavy for an old guy though. I thought about getting one but the CMP had some carbines that looked nice......chris3
I would love to display my guns but I live in the city and I keep them locked up in a BIG HEAVY safe which is built in so it is not possible to move. I try to have the proper sling and bayonet for...

My Chinese SKS are the most accurate I own. And they are parts rifles. The Chinese version of the Mosin Nagant M44 is equal to any of the M44s out there. I need one of those too. Alot of 1917...
My rifle is a run of the mill 1942 Longbranch. The serial number is 86xx range and has all the later fixtures. The rifle went to/came from India so it has it's share of black paint, green barrel...

Looks like I am going to have to dig my 1942 Longbranch out of the safe and look to see what I actually have compared to the posts here.....chris3
I have a 1942 Longbranch that has been carried alot and shot little. It has a 2 groove bore and is my best Enfield shooter....I thought I knew about Enfield rifles until I got on the Great War...
The Great War was a nasty war. My Grandfather, on my Mom's side, was supposed to be over in France then. However, the whole family on that side has died off and no one knows for sure what he did. ...
Yeah, the Greek ammo the CMP is selling is the best I have ever shot.....Most reloading manuals have a section on M1 ammo reloading....chris3
