Any place to get more chokes? I have the 5 it came with but I am OCD about having 2 different chokes. Also, how do you ease the stiffness when breaking over to eject shells? Sorry for the quiz but am new to O/U guns.

Briley. Make sure the pivot points are greased and open/close a chitload of times while watching the entire Gone With the Wind.

You probably need at least 5 more chokes. A little 1500 grit will get that gun flopping open in a hurry.

They do take a while to loosen up.
I bought a 20ga OU a few years ago, probably got 3 cases or so through it and still plenty stiff.

Briley down in Houston makes the chokes for your Yildiz. Their chokes are on par with any of the best. They will make any constriction you want.

Wipe any old lube off. Grease the hinge pins and mating surface. Also grease the forearm iron and where it mates with the reciever. Grease the knuckle on the barrels. It will noticeably limber up almost immediately and keep the gun tight and the barrels on face.
I have a 410 yildiz. I love shooting it and have killed a pile of birds with it. It is actually my favorite 410. I just use the factory chokes.
