So I finally talked with a gunsmith and for anyone who might later come here for this purpose since noone else knew ill post it. The barrel is too thin for a inside thread. It can be done but the sights have to be removed and a new kind of sights must be installed a lil behind than the original location and then the chokes will be installed there. The cost is about 300$.

1.5mm or 0.0590551181 inch is the number for the thickness of the barrel. the length is 21''. Jelly head & tightwad is the name of the model of chokes. I have seen many gunsmiths that do that kind of work for around 40-50$ in the US. Nowhere near 305$ for a new barrel. So any advice? (i know my m2 will be better for this kind of thing but im already in love with my supernova, its an epic tool)

Hi, A month ago I bought the benelli supernova with 8.9mm barrel for home protection. But I wanted to try it for clay shooting (Trap) so i decided to install a choke ( either jelly head or tightwad ). As it seems my barrel isnt threaded for chokes, i was wondering if a gunsmith can/should thread it for me OR is the barrel too thin for such a purpose? (I live in greece and the gunstore which i bought the gun told me about a gunsmith near me that crafts sniper rifles for the greek army) Is there a chance that my barrel will get destroed or i wont be able to shoot slugs with it? Thanks in advace, A greek benelli lover. (In 3 days im expecting my M2 to arrive )
