Alright, I'll be the dumb one here.
My old Benelli M1 90 had a habit of loosening choke tubes when shot a lot. I then picked up the habit of checking them on a regular basis with my finger. Not a bad idea except when I was in the duck blind and caught myself doing this with a loaded gun!!!
I figured teflon tape or a finger? I went for the tape, used it for about a year then got an extended tube. I never had a problem but I did realize that regular removal and a good cleaning was probably in my favor and I kept a very close eye on it.
In my opinion my problem was caused by the previous owner, I think he used the thread chaser a little too often.
