A Carlson's 12-gauge Improved Modified choke tube designed for Remington shotguns, this flush-mounted replacement gives you a straightforward way to restore or upgrade your shotgun's factory choke setup. Whether you've lost an original tube, worn one out, or simply want a proven alternative, the Carlson's IM delivers the constriction pattern you need for mid-range hunting and sport shooting without the fuss of protruding components.
Built from 17-4 PH stainless steel, this choke tube resists corrosion and handles the abuse of the field and range. It works with both lead and steel shot (though steel shot should not be used in turkey-specific chokes), making it versatile across different hunting scenarios and clay shooting. The flush-mount design keeps things clean and snag-free on your shotgun.
Carlson's stands behind this choke tube with a lifetime warranty, so you're investing in a component that's meant to last. It's the kind of practical upgrade that shooters grab when they need reliable performance without overthinking it.
