Sportsman 48

Post by Biggy1 »

I have a Remington Sportsman 48 that I like to use hunting. It is a great gun and shoots nice, but it has a long barrel and is choked down pretty good. It was designed to be a duck gun and probably would be perfect for that as is. I was wondering if anybody knew where I could get a shorter barrel with a more open choke or changeble chokes for this gun. I don't want to modify this one in any way.

You might try some of the gun auction sites like gunbroker.com or gunsamerica.com. Do a search for a Sportsmen 48 barrel and see what comes up. It's a fixed choke barrel so without having a gunsmith install changeable chokes your only option would be to put another barrel on it.

Good Luck

No luck on those sites. I tried that B&M Specialties phone number but it just rings. I went to their site too and they list the same number. Thanks though guys
