Advise On New HK-Benelli M1 Super 90

[Merkavaboy]

I'll be picking up a used M1 Super 90 in a few days. It has the 26" (maybe 24"?) ribbed sporting barrel and no chokes. I haven't had a chance to locate a standard 18" barrel for home defense yet.

Can 00 Buck, #4 Buck & slugs (primarily the Buck) be safely fired in the ribbed sporting barrel sans any chokes?

Any info would be appreciated.

You should have no problems at all with those loads.

I saw a used Benelli 18 inch barrel the other day at a guns store here in Ft Worth TX. It has rifle sights. Sticker said they wanted $197.00

I'm sad to report that Bennelli barrels are quite expensive. Check Brownell's I think they are in the neighborhood of $300.00
