Topper Deluxe Classic 12 ga Barrel

[Missing Michigan]

I read some posts saying 12ga Topper Deluxe Vent Rib barrels weren't available from H&R any longer.  I just wanted folks to know that I just got my SB2 frame back with the barrels from Remington last Friday after they had it for about a week.


My new Grouse gun.

Topper shotguns were discontinued by H&R, but Ilion may still have accessory barrels.

   The Foster slugs should go thru it just fine.

Interesting choke tube.  Is that what came from the factory?  Mine just screws inside the barrel, nothing sticks out, but then again it's a 20 ga.  It unscrews with a quarter, no tools needed.

The extended choke tube is a Polychoke II.  If you don't know about polychokes, they have been around for probably 40 years or so.  Normally they are permanently attached, but a while back they came out with the II's, which is the polychoke with a section that is as long as and threaded like a traditional tube.  It just screws into the barrel, like I had on the Topper Deluxe Barrel.


The polychoke is a choke that allows you to twist a collar (without tools) and open or close the choke from about 2 constrictions more open than cylinder choke through x-full.  It has 9 settings in between.  I love them and have been using them for years.  I always have the right choke with me, and it takes about 5 seconds to adjust it.


I bought mine from Cabelas, but you can also get it from Poly-Choke.com.  They also install the permanent ones if you want.
