Well, the gun is made to be used and to that end if she was nothing but a collector she would stay in the cabinet and never see the light of day.
If the choke tubes mean more efficient days huntin' in the field then why not!
And if ya take a look at a lot of old mdl 12's out there, you will find a lot of them with poly chokes or cutts compensators/lyman chokes on them so even back in the mdl 12's hay day, folks still saw the practical application of a changable choke---especially if they hunted with only one gun.
looks like a 1st rate job and i bet your going to enjoy the advantage of the tubes.
