New Camper,

I have a Model 190 which is essentially the same gun but in 16 ga. with the adjustable "C-Lect-Choke" versus the individual chokes of the 185. The bolt can be disassembled easly, but it does not "fall" appart except that the front half will come off with one-half turn. I wouldn't remove the nut securing the firing pin spring because it sets the pressuer of the firing pin.

Personally, I would prefer having the individual chokes only because my C-Lect-Choke does not pattern well. Even though I don't use this gun very often, the only problem I have had is that red safety button by the safety lever went and got lost. I purchased an extra magazine (aftermarket), but it never fit well, even with some fine tuning. I have the original magazine which fits nicely. For slugs, use an open choke--hopefully more open than modified.
