Depends on how big. For very small stuff a sharpie works.

Fore end is from Cotton Branch. Butt stock is an M1

Honestly wish I'd kept my M1s all wood. For all the ridicules reasons, the wood furniture makes them less scary to F/F even though they know its the same thing. Should it come to jury, it can't hurt. That said, I do prefer wood generally to plastic furniture. Am told a 1301 version of the fore end may be in the works

I love my two M4s. I've just finished updating them to all wood furniture. As a consequence, I have two 11" Truckee forends at $75 each and two stock non-pistol grip stocks (new) with limb savers for $50 each. PM for photos

The fastest reload is the New York reload. If the Benelli runs dry then the 226 is there. And the Virtus 300 BLK. I have read somewhere that the biggest problem you will likely have is not running dry but some failure to feed/fire. Drop that weapon and use the next. Yes, it's good to drill on clearances and reloads but my time is spend on transition training

Sorry to hear about your chokes. I have two HK M1 and love tgem For the receiver, first heat the Velcro with a heat gun and see if you can pull it up first. Then get off what you can with goof off - it’s far more mild - then goo gone. Mineral spirits or acetone after that

If you don't want to use a gunsmith, yes.

I have two HK M1. They are Mobil choke

Breneke slugs but you’d be better off with a 308

Benelli seems to have the stocks on wood fairly often.

Well, you might consider swing balance, sight plain, weight and many other issues. If you're not seeing them in local, state, national, international tournaments, there is a reason.

An M4 and an SKB are not what want for clay sports. Many courses won’t allow them and they are not designed for the job. You can spend well over $10k for a top of the line o/u. However, if you just starting out and want to test the waters, get the right type of gun, used. Beretta 686 are everywhere and don’t wear out. Or get a Beretta auto. If just have to have new, I’d look at turkish guns. I work with lots of people who start from tactical roots. Then they want to do clays because there is something to hit and moving targets are fun. 100% they all end up with a proper clays/trap gun once they realize how poor a tactical shotgun is for these situations.
