Choke type

[Braddex96 9]

I’m desperate for help. 
I’ve recently purchased a beretta 686e EVO. 
It was a good as new model so been used a few time max. 
Ive come to buying new chokes for it and common knowledge says look at the ones in the gun and buy the same, however in the box and the gun there are both types (OPTIMA & OPTIMA HP).

how do I find out which my gun is compatible with? Or what’s your thoughts please gents? 
Any advice is appreciated 

thanks in advance.

Thankyou very much for the link mate I delved into the site and managed to find out I’ve been supplied the wrong chokes with the gun. This model is a OPTIMA HP. 
and for anyone struggling in future to read this thread it says so in small writing on the barrel next to the gauge size.

The EVO is a nice handling gun, don't know what they did with these but they handle far better than the original 686 / 687.

Yes I totally agree I love the way this gun handles Phil.
