Gun chokes have been around for centuries, and it is not clear which came first. The earliest known gun choke was found in China in the 6th century AD. It consisted of a metal chain with a small hole drilled through it at one end, used to restrain someone’s hand while they were firing a firearm. This type of choke was also used by samurai as part of their self-defense system. The early American firearms were also filled with gun chokes, most notably the Colt revolver. A key feature of this revolver was that the rounds could be fired without having to remove the chamber from the barrel. As a result, gun chokes became an essential part of American firepower. Gun chokes continued to be used on American firearms until about 1875 when they were replaced by gas-operated pistols. With these new types of pistols, it became much easier for users to control how many rounds were shot off each magazine; however, gun chokes still remain an important part of modern pistol shooting techniques.
There are many types of gun chokes, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Rifle chokes are the most common type, and they work by depressing the firing pin while still allowing the cartridge to be fired. Pistol chokes involve cutting off one of the air passages in the barrel, which reduces the rate at which shots can be fired. The drawback to pistol chokes is that they can be dangerous if not used correctly; when wielded improperly, they can restrict shooting lanes and cause accidents. Rifle chokes also tend to be more durable than pistols, but they require a special rifle or shotgun stock to fit them properly.
The first choke hold in Plant City, Florida was patented by a man named Harry H. Abrams in 1922. The patent is still in use today.
Plant City is a city in southern Florida, incorporated in 1924. It is located on the Gulf of Mexico just outside Miami. The population was 39,008 as of the 2010 census. Plant City is home to the Miami Dolphins and the Floridian football team, which play their home games at EverBank Field. The history of Plant City goes back to 1885 when Mateo Ponce de Leon discovered what would become Plant City on December 12th, 1885 while exploring the area near present-day Fort Lauderdale. The name "Plant City" was given to the community by Dr. J.B. Cook after he saw an orange tree in the area and thought it looked like a tropical forest from his ship's viewfinder while sailing through Cuban waters east of Miami on his way to Havana. The first residents were African Americans who came overland from Jacksonville and met some local white settlers here in early 1920s as part of efforts by then Mayor Harry Sargent to create a black town in south Miami-Dade County where there had been no black populated areas since before World War I when all white land had been taken away for military bases during that conflict (see also "Black Town Boom"). This effort failed because most blacks living north of US 1 in south Miami-Dade County were already established under white leaderships such as Booker T Washington and Louis Armstrong – notables many African Americans considered themselves above (and often did so politically). In 1925, two years after incorporation, Plant City became one of only four cities in Florida Atlantic University District #2 with voting rights; eventually other universities within FAU district #2 joined FAU district #1 following annexation by that region in 1959 (the university districts are now Palm Beach County) In 1929 President Coolidge dedicated FAU's $5 million physical plant including laboratories for agriculture research – today's EverBank Field – making it one of only two colleges/universities nationally recipients of federal funds specifically for research purposes (the other being Harvard University). That same year PlantCity voters approved a sales tax increase for school purposes which funded new classrooms, athletic fields and other infrastructure necessary for day-to-day operations such as water systems and sewer lines; still others voted to annex neighbouring unincorporated Broward County into city limits thereby doubling its size . By 1934 downtown streetscape was almost complete with large brick buildings housing government agencies such as county clerk's office and jail; half a century later similar facilities can be found throughout central business district although much less visibly extant due largely to redevelopment efforts spearheaded by then Mayor Joe Thomas culminating with construction beginning on downtown mall area encompassing both banks & Post Office Center until that project was cancelled amid budgetary constraints prior to 2020 Hurricane Irma landfalling westward along US 1 coastal plain adjacent thereto causing extensive damage & loss ($130 million) . In 1945–46 United States Coast Guard Base Brevard opened ashore nearby notable primarily due importation/export activities conducted thereon during Second World War era months preceding major hurricane season thenceforth known commonly as Hurricane Season . A few blocks inland from base several small businesses grew up around wharf areas serviced mainly by fishermen loading/unloading cargo off vessels arriving/departing from PortMiami or Clearwater but soon discontinued operations due generally high levels of ocean noise typically experienced aboard ships conducting such activities well beyond open water boundary . And finally post office complex completed northeast corner Main Street & SW Seaquist Avenue 1926: originally designed by architect David Dudley Wright based upon Spanish Mission style typical elsewhere along Pan American Highway en route from Key West via Tampa Bay crossing Cuba without passage through Guantanamo Bay – this design remained popular among later developers throughout Greater Tampa Bay Area .. Downtown core gradually lost importance relative newcomers more interested instead developing residential neighborhoods further southwest bordering Everbank Field .. By 1990s all services located downtown except public transportation were provided either inside or outside central Business District rather than solely within its boundaries.. However significant remnants remain including large number of historic brick buildings characterizing downtown core dating back more than 50 years
Gun chokes (or "trigger locks") are devices that prevent a person from firing ammunition by squeezing the trigger while the firearm is still in use. The device has been used to prevent gunfire since before pistols were invented. Trigger locks have also been used as handcuffs, and are now common on shotguns and rifles. The first known use of a trigger lock was in 1597 when Nicholas-Jacques Conte patented an idea for restraining individuals with pistols by using a strong metal band around their wrists so that they could not fire without causing injury. The patent was later bought by Nicolas-Jacques Conte's colleague, Giovanni da Prete, who made it standard on his pistols. Trigger locks continued to be developed and patented throughout the 18th century; however, they remained rare until the early 19th century when they became commonplace on most handguns. The first handgun to include a trigger lock was the Colt Model 1853 revolver. A plunger button operated this revolver with four screws located at each end of the hammer block which prevented conventional triggers from being pulled off during loading and unloading cycles. In 1857, John Browning designed and built his first successful rifle with a trigger lock system; this Rifle, called the Winchester Model 1886, became one of history's most famous firearms. By 1860, all handguns had required trigger locks for safety reasons; however, some rifles continued to be sold without them until well into World War II
Gun chokes were first used in the 1860s to prevent handguns from firing.
Plant City is a city in Hillsborough County, Florida, United States. The population was 9,869 at the 2010 census. It is the county's second most populous municipality after Tampa. As of ZIP code 33814 it is part of the Tampa-St Petersburg-Pensacola Metropolitan Statistical Area. The history of Plant City begins with its settlement by Captain John Stroud in 1835 and continued through post-World War II growth as a agricultural center and later as a bedroom community for Tampa and another large metropolitan area. In recent years, however, Plant City has regained some of its former prominence as an entertainment destination for the region. The city also contains several popular attractions, including two major shopping malls - one in downtown and one nears Interstate 495 - three parks - Shipyard Park on Spring Lake Boulevard east of town and Pinellas Park on Gulfstream Boulevard just north of I-495 - several professional sporting teams and venues (including one that has been home to the NHL's Tampa Bay Lightning since 2007), as well as numerous small businesses catering to the needs of residents within easy reach. The first known inhabitants of what would become Plant City were Native Americans who hunted deer, squirrels and other game along the banks of Perfect Creek below Coopers Landing on modern day US 1/10th Avenue N between Clearwater Beach Road (N) and Gulfstream Boulevard (E). After captain John Stroud discovered sugarcane growing in 1794 from what is now known as "Old Fort" which he built across from present day Military Park off US 1/10th Avenue N between Clearwater Beach Road (N) and Gulfstream Boulevard (E), he decided to settle this new land which became known as "Johnstown". By 1835, when captain John died at his home on Clearwater Beach Road (N) near present day Naval Station Pasco during a Seminole Indian attack led by Chief Tequesta,[1] his son James had already moved his family to what would become Plant City from their original home in Ansonia Parish near Ft Myers.[2][3] James Stroud founded J & J Sugar Company[4][5] hereon land patented to him by Governor Carlos de la Hoya y Mendoza on March 2nd 1836;[6][7][8] construction began soon afterwards with 300 acres enclosed within boundaries set by James himself including today's downtown core areas bounded by State Street NW., First Avenue NE., Executive Drive SE., Gandy Blvd SW., [9]-[11] Second Avenue SE., Williston Road W./US 1/10th Ave NE,[12]-[13]: This initial plot contained only 20 buildings but quickly grew into something quite different due to natural resources such as timberland along Umatilla River Valley extending into eastern Hillsborough County then Illinois Territory before becoming part of Floridas Polk Nation under Colonel Augustus De Witt in 1800; this area became known today’s Marathon Township although much remains unrecorded about early plant life activity hereabouts!

Plant City is a city in Polk County, Florida, United States. The population was 24,871 at the 2010 census. It is part of the Jacksonville metropolitan area. The city was founded on October 1, 1892 by John A. Ketchum and his brother Harry Ketchum as a farming community known as "Plant City". The name change occurred because of the citrus industry which had become dominant in north Florida by this time. In 1904, Plant City became an incorporated town after being approved by the county commission. On November 12 of that year, Mayor J.B. Lewis signed a resolution ratifying the merger of Plant City with nearby Dunnellon to form one new municipality under state law called "Dunnellon-Plant City Township." plantcityflorida timeline
