When you cut the barrel, it will no longer be a modified choke as you'll remove the choked part of the barrel, so if you need a choked barrel, you'll have to consider your options.

Have a smith cut the barrel to your desired length, then thread the barrel for internal choke tubes. He can install the sights at the same time.

Or...send your frame in to H&R for a Tracker II slug barrel that comes with sights, it'll cost $87 plus the cost of shipping to them.

CW: Did you add the barrel band for the sling mount or did that gun come with it? A nice looking setup. It looks quick.
