i have a 28 inch barrel on my beretta with a 1.5 inch maddmax choke, it brings it to 29.5 inches. i like looking down that long barrel
while i'm waiting for that tom to appear. it may just be the gun, i don't know for sure. but it just feels right when i have it up on my shoulder and cheek. the gun balances very well with that longer barrel. oh but getting back to your question bosstom, no i would'nt cut it down. mama always said "if it ain't broke don't fix it. besides if you are as confident with it as i am with mine, why risk
messing up your turkey gun.
