I recently picked up a early model Remington 1100. It has a fixed mod choked non vent rib barrel on it. I am wanting to replace that with a new barrel that accepts choke tubes. I went to the local pawn shop to see if they had any in the rack and they only had one, a hastings 24 inch vent rib with one screw in choke for $150. Then went on to a gun shop that had a new in box 26 inch vent rib with rem chokes for $210.

Personally I like the idea of the new barrel because it has 3 choke tubes already and that its new.

The hastings looked like a very well built barrel but 24 inch seems a little short to me. I dont know if 150 was a good deal on it or not. And what kind of choke tubes do these take?

Which way seems better? If they are both good deals I may buy them both.

Thanks
