Gun choke??? update
I recently bought a used Browning 12ga Gold Hunter semi-auto shotgun and the choke seems to be siezed into barrel, well atleast I couldn't get it out with the tool that was provided. I'll admit I didn't give it my all for fear that I may ruin it. The question is does anyone have any ideas or tricks on getting the choke out???
thanks, Chris |

I recommend swabbing the seam between the tube & barrel with a light oil and let it set for a few days. Then re-swab the seam and try to unscrew the tube.

I was finally able to free the choke without too many issues. I ended up soaking it in PB blaster, making a wrench and tapping it with a hammer while trying to tighten. Then, when I tried to unscrew it while putting some muscle into it, bam it broke free and after a few turns I was able to unscrew by hand.
Thanks for the replies and suggestions I saved some cash thanks to the wisdom of the board:D Chris |

Im haveing the same problem with my browning gold hunter 12ga. So what exactly is pb blaster. I have soaked the end of the barrel in oil for days and still couldnt get it even to show a sign of budgeing. I have broke about two or three choke tube renches trying to remove this thing.

PB Blaster is a rust dissolving product similar to liquid wrench or other penetrating oils. In my experience it is the best. You will find it in the automotive section of your local Wal-mart or any auto parts store. Good luck with your project!

I was going to suggest using some Krol...
