Usually modified, but each shotgun may be a bit different.
A pattern of a shotgun is determined by the choke at the factory. Some models have a variable choke that makes the user able to change the pattern.
They came in various barrel lengths and choke combinations. If it is not marked on the side of the barrel, you will have to pattern the shotgun to determine the choke
To remove the barrel choke on a Mossberg 600AT shotgun, first ensure the shotgun is unloaded and clear. Use a choke wrench or a suitable tool to unscrew the choke from the barrel’s muzzle. Turn it counterclockwise until it is completely free. Once removed, you can replace it with a different choke or leave it as is, depending on your preference.
