For sale Greener GP MkII 12 bore , not sure what the choke it is , 3/4 I think , I bought this several years ago because it was a Martini action , but have only fired 50 or so rounds in it , a lovely shotgun in near mint condition .
These were manufactured in the late 1970s this one has had very little use the bore is perfect , I don't get any use of it these days so its time move it on to someone who will .
Barrel length 27 1/4" . sling swivels fitted . Section2 shotgun certificate required .
£150.00 +transfer fees
Thanks for looking Dave

Is this the one that strips down? (barrel can be removed?)

Barrel off
Hacksaw
File flat
...wish you'd marked the 24" min. first
PANIC
Saw one of these some time back at Bisley
It had a 30" full choke barrel, and a 24" rifle sighted barrel
Price was a bargain too!
Ended up with one of the Greener Police models for a while

You can fire slugs in a choked barrel , but the chamber on this is not long enough for slug cartridges .

I was reading somewhere that slugs could be fired with 3/4 choke if you're using the sabot kind as the sabot should just deform

Chamber marking in the photos says 2 3/4"
Should be ok, I'd have thought
I'd have been tempted to add rifle sights - make an excellent Target Shotgun

I had some slugs once and they were 3" I didn't realise you could get shorter slug cartridges .
