CARL 12GA MOD Sporting Clays Choke Tube for Benelli Shotguns
- Caliber-Gauge:
- 12 Gauge
The CARL 12GA MOD Sporting Clays Choke Tube for Benelli shotguns is a precision-engineered aftermarket choke built for shooters who demand tighter, more consistent patterns downrange. Made from 17-4 stainless steel and machined to exacting tolerances, this Modified constriction tube gives you the density you need for competitive clays and wing shooting without the bulk of flush-mount designs. If you shoot a Benelli 12 gauge and want to upgrade your factory chokes, this is a no-compromise choice.
What sets the CARL apart is its engineering: a 25% larger parallel section compared to standard chokes means pellets spend more time in the constriction zone, resulting in tighter, more uniform shot strings. You'll notice the difference in your patterns, especially at distance. The knurled end makes swapping tubes fast—no tools required—and the laser-marked constriction marking eliminates guesswork in the field or at the bench.
The CARL handles lead shot, steel shot, copperplated, nickel, and Hevi-Shot loads. One caveat: avoid steel shot larger than BB through chokes tighter than Full, and be sure to follow your Benelli's manual for safe ammunition recommendations. This is a Benelli 12 gauge choke system tube, so verify your shotgun's choke compatibility before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this choke tube fit my Benelli shotgun?
The CARL is designed for Benelli 12 gauge shotguns with standard choke systems. Verify your shotgun's choke compatibility in your owner's manual or with your dealer before purchasing.
What ammunition can I safely use with this choke?
The CARL accepts lead shot, steel shot, copperplated shot, nickel shot, Hevi-Shot, and buckshot. Do not use steel shot larger than BB through this Modified choke or any choke tighter than Full constriction.
How does this compare to my factory Benelli choke?
The CARL's 25% larger parallel section produces denser, more consistent patterns than standard chokes, and will throw tighter patterns than flush-mount designs due to its longer parallel section—useful for clay shooting and long-range wing shooting.
Is the choke easy to change in the field?
Yes. The knurled end is designed for quick hand removal without tools, and the laser-marked constriction marking lets you identify the tube instantly.
