What are your opinions on cutting down a barrel with a Polychoke, removing the Polychoke with a torch and re-installing the Polychoke on the shortened barrel?
I have a line on a nice (yet a beater) 16ga Browning A5 with a Polychoke on a 28" barrel.
I would like a short-barrel grouse gun. Seems like a perfect opportunity. Removing and re-installing the Polychoke makes sense if it's do-able.
Has anyone done this? I have read a bit about it..."use a vice as a heat sink"..."heat the barrel, not the Polychoke". Has anyone done this? Warnings, tips and tricks appreciated.
