Why would I need a 2rd mag. I can hunt with all my hunting shotguns with 6 shells and more if I add an extended tube on my pumps? There are no limits on shotgun capacities in Va anymore. Thanks, George

I have a Saiga 12 19" barrel, standard poly-choke, dragunov style Russian American Armory stock, 5rd magazine/12rd magazine, quick release rail with 4x32 Bushnell shotgun scope, and nothing else. I either run the scope with a 5rd mag for slugs or no scope with a 12rd mag for buckshot. I am curious about hunting and home defense legality. I know here in Va we don't have restrictions on regular shotgun capacities anymore but I'm fuzzy on all this assault weapon legality. The more I read on here the less I understand. I have one factory 5rd mag and the 12rd is a surefire. My 12 is still in

There is a gap. Even when screwing them both all the way down theres at least a 1/8" or more gap between the barrel and where the threads end for the choke. Without the nut it fits flush. That means theres 1/8" or more of threads or more if I run the barrel nut up a little to lock the choke on. This is my concern I don't want pellets going in the gap and damaging the choke threads or worse. Thanks, George

So the threads on the barrel nut should be up and even with the barrel nut screwed all the way down theres a noticable gap between the barrel and the poly choke on the inside, is this ok? The barrel nut only has threads on one end. Seems like it would be better to have no gap inside the barrel between the barrel and the poly choke. Thanks, George

So screw the barrel nut on with the threaded side toward the killing end of the barrel and it the gap it causes between the poly-choke and barrel will not cause damage to the poly choke or barrel when fired? Also whats the best setting for 3" 00 Buckshot? Thanks, George

I ordered the standard poly-choke from CSS and there was a side note on the page that said a barrel nut was recommended so I ordered one of those also. I can see how it would make sure the choke is in the same spot each time it is removed and reinstalled but I wanna make sure I have it on the right way/make sure the 1/8" or more gap on the inside it puts between the choke/barrel isn't going to hurt the threads on the poly-choke that are exposed in the gap or blow the choke off when pellets/slugs hit in the gap. I'm new to shotguns so please ignore any naiveness on the issue. The poly-choke f
