Franchi choke tube info

BLUE HORNET · December 16, 2001, 09:15 AM

I am trying to buy a Franchi choke tube and there seems to be some some confussion on what I have. We have called or went to at least 10-12 stores and still no one can give me good info. I have a 20 ga. Al. 48 don't know how old it is, bought it second hand.One shop that deals in Franchi says there is a "new" style and an "old" style. Most places say they think the Benneli/Bereta tube will inter-change with Franchi but I have not found that info published in any charts or catalogs. The choke tubes the guy sold me with the gun came in a green box marked Franchi & that is what I would like to buy if possible. One guy told me the thread location is the difference. My threads are at the top near where the wrench fits the slots. Any info on this would be appreciated.
Thanks, BLUE Hornet
