I find the bolt action to be way more objectionable than the Poly Choke.
My grandfather hunted with a single shot hinge action shotgun for most of his life. My father bought it for him with his very first real paycheck. He went from one shot to 3! It has now passed to a fourth generation. It will fire anything from rabbit and bird shot to 2 3/4" deer slugs. The only thing it has ever needed, was new extractors. I carried it for a lot of years myself. I like it just fine.
