CHOKE STUCK

[QUACKERS]

I HAVE A BROWNING G.H. AND MY CHOKE IS STUCK ALMOST LIKE THE DAM THING HAS BEEN WELDED IN I HAVE SOAKED IT AND LET EVERYONE AND ANYONE WHO THINKS THAT THEY ARE HE-MAN TRY WITH NO SUCCESS???????

I have a BPS and my choke is also stuck. I would like to know if you are able to get yours out and how if you succeed so I may try it.

Thanks and good luck

Try some PB Blaster. This stuff is awsome. May not work, but is definitely worth a try. My next suggestion would be to heat the end of the barrel with a torch and try to loosen while hot. I'm not talking cherry-red, just enough to soften things up a bit. But do be careful!

P.B. Break!!! Spray your gun with it and let it soak for 5 to 10 minutes. Spray it again and see what you get. If that does not work your choke must have the threads twisted. Hope it helps.

I personally think that it would be a great idea to ruin the barrell of that expensive gun with a torch! I believe I'd let the gunsmith have it before I tried that one.

i agree with the p.b.blaster but,i sprayed it in a cup and let the choke soak in that. do not use a stryofoam cup though. p.b. will eat it up.
good luck

Wrap barrel in towel and place in a vise but only apply enough pressure to keep the barrel from turning (don't go ape). Put your choke wrench in there and maybe use something else for leverage attached to the wrench. It will take a while but it will come out.....pb blaster is amazing stuff...so soak it first then try the vise.

I used to shoot a full-steel choke and could never get it out w/o a struggle.

Throw it away and go get a Benelli.

Bite the bullet...take it to a gunsmith. No use ruining a weapon by being cheap and stubborn. It is also way less frustrating! Bet he'll have it out in less than five minutes.

i was just waiting on the nellie joke thing.... that was purtty good. have a good one and good luk!

[QUACKERS]

I WAS HOPING THAT NO S.A. WOULD COME BACK WITH THAT, I KNOW, I KNOW, BUT TO TELL YOU ABOUT THE BENELLI I OWNED ONE BEFORE I BOUGHT THIS AND YES I DID LIKE IT BUT.... THE BARRELL BULGED ON IT ABOUT 8 INCHES FROM THE CHAMBER SO I SOLD IT FOR THIS GUN YOURE PROBALLLY RIGHT THE SBE HAS NO FAULTS OR DOES IT??? I AM VERY PLEASED WITH MY G.H. AS IM SURE YOUR PLEASED WITH YOUR SBE THEY BOTH HAVE AND WILL KILL MANY DUCKS SO YOU SHOOT YOURS AND I'LL SHOOT MINE WITH THE CHOKE STUCK OR NOT BUT BEST WISHES TO YOU AND YOUR SBE...

Kroil is what you need. It is an industrial grade lubricant that is designed to break things lose. Put it on there and let is soak over night. Put the barrel in a vise with towels around it and when you start tring to break it lose tap it solidly but not real hard. Do that until it breaks lose. It will break lose no question about it. If it doesn't work the first day let it soak another. The steady solid taps will do amazing things for it also. It breaks the rust lose from all the vibrations. Do not heat the end of the barrel if you like the gun. Heat will get it out for sure, but it will also mess the temper up in your barrel.

You can tell Wingman has done a little farming in his time. Hes talkin about using a good ole cheater bar on a choke wrench. One of my dad's most famous farming slogans was: "&*#$, go get me a bigger hammer and a cheater bar"

Oh yeah,....turn the other way.

I couldn't resist. I gotta use my diplomoooooa some time.

Same thing happened to my 870 a couple of years ago. Gunsmith had it out pretty quick. Cost 20 bucks.
