I bought a remington sportsman 12 auto yesterday and will use it for trap once a week but also I would like too use it too hunt deer would it be okay too use rifled slugs in this gun with that choke in it.

ABSOLUTELY DO NOT SHOOT anything through that barrel without a choke tube screwed into it!
For slugs, typically cylinder or improved cylinder is the tube to be used, if you do not have a rifled slug barrel.
You can always purchase a rifled slug barrel for your gun, it should even come with sights. Probably cost around a $175-$200.
The internal threads at the end of your barrel will be damaged if fired without a choke tube installed, DON'T DO IT!

I plan on having the improved cylinder tube in to shoot the slugs my other gun is a mossberg 695 slug gun with a 3-9x32 scope and it is great it hits fairly tight groups at the range and is great but my mother will be hunting with me and dad this year and I figured that this may be an okay gun for her to use
