Be Veyyyy Veyyyy quiet…..

This "choke" is purely cosmetic. A greta laugher to shwo up at the rabbit hunt with one of thsoe on your gun.

I have to point out that the
funnel-shaped muzzle of this choke tube, or of an old-fashioned
blunderbuss, doesn't have any effect of spreading the shot. The shot
column is compacted by the barrel (choked or not) which is smaller
than the diameter of the bell. As the shot passes through the bell
it's still compacted, and never touches the sides of the bell at all.

The real purpose of belled muzzles on blunderbusses is that these
guns were used by stagecoach guards and naval boarding parties and in
similar situations. Since they're muzzle-loaders, the bell made it
easier to get a charge down the barrel for a reload when the coach is
swaying madly or there's a big fight going on on the poop deck.

Now, there is a form of "spreader" attachment, and Mossberg used to
sell it for their home defense versions of the Model 500. It's a
"duck foot" tube. This is flattened out top to bottom (in anatomy
we'd say "dorsoventrally") so that the tube is wider than the barrel,
but vertically narrower. In this case the shot does come in contact;
it's spread out horizontally, but compressed vertically, and forms a
horizontally-shaped shot cloud. Exactly like a "fan spray" on a
hose, and it looks like one.

I have no idea who would buy the Briley item, especially at Briley's
prices, but I guess if you have that kind of money, and are dressing
up as Elmer Fudd at your club Halloween party, it would be de rigeur

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Way to squeeze in "poop deck." THis thing is hilarious btw.
