Hi, I've owned a couple of Uggies over the years and my current Uggie a Model 1030 in 16ga is a delight. Never had a problem with any of them, except I did have a Model 30 that had soft firing pins, sold that one (after it was fixed) for an upgrade. They are very good quality guns and are well worth the $$$. The wood can be fairly plain compared to other Spanish makers, but that's just cosmetic. To be honest you'd do just fine with a Uggie.

As far as chokes go, you'd have to look around for one that has the chokes you want or just open them up.

Good luck in your quest. Half the fun is looking!
