Looking for a source for chopping and choking a R9 barrel. (professional that is)
Last I checked, Pomona Airguns was still doing it. The barrel I worked with in that regard didn't have quite as pronounced a choke as it did from the factory. But, it was still enough to be considered properly done.
Oh and any pics of a ARH R9 TK ? This is what I want to duplicate.
Is Paul Watts still doing that work? He is who I used to see recommended.
David Enoch
He did my R9 .20 cal....shoots like a dream.

This is the only pic I have handy. The bottom gun is my Huntington Beach-era R9TK, complete with David G stock. It's a toss-up between this and one of my FWB124's for last springer I'd ever part with.
John-in-PA is one I always see highly recommended....

Here are photos of my .177 R9TK, .22 HW95TK, and .22 R1 with a Maccari Piranha TK barrel.
Thanks to you all for the feed back and pics. Wow, really nice air rifles.
Airmojo, that bottom stock is to me, perfection.
So sweet

@harvey Yeah... that's an original stock... I love that stock too !
The other two are not, being "custom"... the original stocks were pretty plain beech short stocks--not full length like the R1.
