A choke is a device placed on the end of a shotgun barrel that changes the pattern of the shot as it leaves the rifle.

Does a rifle have a choke?

No. A rifle does not have a choke. A rifle has grooves to make a bullet spin around. The spin keeps the bullet going on a straight path. Shotguns have chokes. A choke sits at the open end of the barrell and squeezes the shot just before it leaves the barrell. That squeezing makes the shot hold together and slowly spread out as it goes toward the target. Without the choke, the shot spreads out in all directions as soon as it leaves the tip of the barrell.
