Another vote with Giz and Dave. The Russian guns, probably a Baikal, are very stout. They don't have the quality of a higher grade sxs but don't carry anywhere near the same price tag. If you are dedicated to an sxs, they are a better choice than the Boito or other South American brand.
That said, retro fitting one for choke tubes would be a waste of time -- it might cost you as much as the gun itself.
What sort of hunting are you planning?
