Hi David, It doesn't include a choke and it is Muzzle Threaded Metric 22x.75 so you should be good to add a muzzle brake. The KS-12's barrel is a 18″ tube with a threaded muzzle, just like the one on the Saiga series. Instead of using a set of chokes that screw into the inside of the muzzle of the barrel, you adjust the KS-12's choke by tacking on a muzzle device that performs the same action. While it's slightly easier to change in the field, it also makes the barrel longer and heavier than needed.
