Hey ya'll, I just bought my first shotgun today at a pawnshop. Its a Mossy 500 12 gauge, paid $185 for it. But before I left the guy running the place told me the gun can't fire slugs or buckshot, because it has something called an "Apollo Choke".
The end of the barrel has this thing that screws in and out, and can screw off to reveal the end of the muzzle with four notches cut into it. Is that what he's referring to? I'd like to atleast put 00 buckshot through it for home defense, so is there anyway to remove it; or would I be better off getting a new barrel?
If nothing else can somebody tell me what an Apollo choke is? I know what a choke is, and what it does, but Goggle can't find anything on Apollo chokes. =/
