I recently picked up one of the grade 2, NID magnum framed, 3" 12 gauges and had a few question I hope the experts could answer. I was wondering how many inches long the chokes usually were on those. This one has 30" barrels and the chokes are 3" long. I've read the 10 gauges had 32 or 34" barrels.
Also, this one has a Hawkins shotgun recoil pad, would the Ithaca Starburst pad be more appropriate? The Hawkins is in good shape.
One other non magnum Ithaca question. I have a Flues grade 3 16 gauge. One of the early Krupp steel lightweights. It is missing the recoil pad. The dimensions of the small starburst pad from Galazans are still quite a bit too big for the butt stock. Has anyone tried to install the small starburst on a butt with 4 3/8" x 1 3/8" dimensions? Thank you.
