    Am looking for Perazzi Gen 1 choke tubes for my MT6 in
    constrictions number 0 and number 2. #0 and #2.

    Do have a number 10 choke tube and is shown here for example.

    Please let me know what you all have, would like to purchase two each
    of the Number 0 tubes and one each of the Number 2 choke tube.

    Am aware that Teague (England) has these chokes , but prefer to have factory
    choke tubes if they are out there.

    Thanks Everybody.

    Thanks for your kind offer 37Coupe, however am looking for Perazzi factory made Generation 1 choke tubes, specifically marked #0 and #2.
    I realize this will be a tough find and if nothing shows up in a few months may end up buying Teague (British) silver chokes as they are a direct copy minus the blued finish Perazzi put on their Gen 1 choke tubes. Good luck on the sale of your Briley tubes.

    I have a #5 and a #10 if you can use them. You can always get them opened up I suppose.

    Thanks Old1Eye, will keep Wrights in mind. Saw that their websites been down for awhile. Thanks for the tip.
    Never used one of their chokes, but have heard they are pretty good quality.

    Thank you oleolliedawg for your offer, but would need to pay a gunsmith to open your choke tubes up to #0 (skeet) and #2 (improved cylinder)
    which just adds to the cost. Was unaware that the factory ever made a #5 choke tube. Anything is possible like this I suppose.

    It is my understanding the (Perazzi) factory made Gen 1 choke tubes as follows:

    #0 (skeet)
    #2 (improved cylinder)
    #4 (light modified)
    #6 (modified)
    #8 (improved modified)
    #10 (full) very tight according to my bore mic.

    Will wait and see if anyone has those elusive #0 and #2 choke tubes marked as shown in my sample photo.
    Evidently, the factory used a hand dremel tool and marked them manually. Which makes sense for the 1960s and 1970s.
    Those were the days of my early youth, seems like a hundred years ago now. ha ha.
