My 870 Express I have had a few years only came with a Mod Choke . I been thinking of adding a Full and IC to go with it but kinda got stuck on decisions of if I want to stay with orig. flushes or go extended and what brands ? Can someone throw me some info on what chokes are good ones and not and arm and leg cost and whether or not extended are worth buying or better to just stay with flush mounts ? Thanks for any input anyone can throw my way .

Unless you shoot sporting clays I don't think you need extended tubes. I have RemChokes for all my Remingtons threaded for those. They work. Be advised there is a Lead Full tube and a Lead and Steel Full tube.
What could have happened... did.

Thanks for the info ! I prefer the L&S chokes in the Rem Choke Flush .

Changes to pattern performance aside - which are minor enough that most shooters probably wouldn't notice anyway - basic extended choke tubes with knurled ends are nice because you can remove, replace, & tighten them easily and cleanly by hand. The extended portion also serves to help protect the end of the barrel.

If you don't think that's worth the extra money, flush tubes will most likely get the job done just fine for you.
