ok, looks like my idea of a single barrel like the bt99 in 16 ga won`t work, so what pumps have interchangeable chokes? need it for trap, and be lighter then the citori lightening I currently am using.

You might try a Browning Pump Action if you can find a late model with the tubes. The only ones I have heard of in 16ga.

If you end up with one of these and don't like English stocks, both 20 & 16ga pistol grip butt stocks will fit. FWIW, I have a spare set of stocks that came with my BPS I can sell or trade.

For reference, my 16ga BPS 26" pistol w/Trulock Turkey weighs #7.3

BPS guns seem to be on the heavy side. What weight range are you looking for.

Not sure what your Citori weighs, but you may want to look at some of the Fair Rizzini O/U guns. Some of them are on the lighter side. Mine with 30" barrels weights 6 1/2 lbs.

Ithaca 37 16ga have been produced with choke tubes. I have a 26" VR barreled one from the King Ferry era that I would part with. I also have one with 28" vent rib barrel, that, although it is choked mod, can have tubes put in quite reasonably by Mike Orlen. He is active over on shotgun world.

The 26" uses tubes available from Colonial.

Choke tubes can be added to any pump gun
Mike orelan can install colonial chokes inexpensively
Briley can install choke tubes that are more expensive
Buy a model 12 and be happy
