I have purchased Trulock chokes. Have not patterned them yet but they seem to be ok....
There is usually a Black Friday sale.... |

I have bought Truelock, Briley and at least another three brands of OEM Choke Tubes and have found them all to be satisfactory. I try to get tubes from the gun manufacturer when I can, but just to have matching parts, not because one is better than the other.

I think factory the DS 's are excellent chokes . You should be able to get them also if just want different constrictions . If shopping price that's different story .
I prefer the factory chokes. |

I like Trulock and Colonial's when OEM isn't cutting it. Interesting enough, Nephew purchased a new Franchi Duck gun when his main piece gave a bunch of dud/light primer strikes during past weekend' hunt. Open the box and a nice set of extended Trulock's in there...brought a smile to my face. |

Tru Lock have always worked well for me. My A5 factory chokes are very good. If you must have them trulock has a Black Friday sale before 2 PM usually. |
