Description

This is a single shotgun barrel chambered for 16 gauge, featuring a smooth bore and a factory-style blued finish. The barrel is equipped with a distinctive Hartford Gun Choke Co. Cyclone adjustable choke system at the muzzle, which features a knurled adjustment ring and graduated markings for Full, Improved, 2, 3, and 1, along with a brass bead front sight. A fixed rear sight base is mounted to the barrel tube. Barrel markings include Proof Tested 16 Gauge and —2 3/4 Inch Chamber—. The breech end features a machined lug with vertical serrations and stamped proof marks including a circled K and a circled X, a design consistent with the Remington Model 11 or Browning Auto-5 series, though exact model compatibility should be verified by the lug configuration. The finish shows characteristic thinning and surface wear from use. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.


Condition report:

The barrel retains a good portion of its blued finish with visible thinning along the tube, high-edge wear, and scattered handling marks. The knurling on the adjustable choke shows some flattening and silvering at the contact points. The bore is bright and smooth with no significant pitting or obstruction visible. The adjustable choke mechanism appears to rotate and function as intended.
