Usually if you want to shoot a slug you'll need a rifled barrel. Buckshot requires a choke. 2 totally different things. Im a fan of kicks choke tubes, they make chokes specifically for buckshot.

agreed. you will probably need 2 different chokes. I think you can shoot slugs out of a choke up to MOD, but don't quote me on that (for your gun anyways). Some shotgun barrels explicitly say "no slugs".

A rifled barrel is only needed if you entend to shoot sabot style slugs. foster or rifled slugs can be fired out of a smooth bore and are pretty accurate out to 50-75yds. I believe the best choke for foster type slugs is IC, but i'd double check that (i'm sure the box would state it as well)

Improved cylinder or cylinder chokes work fine for both buckshot and foster stlye slugs....Most 18" police barrels are cylinder bore and shoot well with both.... If you want to shoot sabot style slugs, rifled chokes are available....
