Correct. This is where the toggle key being reworked will do the trick. Not the lug. If the lug is left alone, both forends can be used on that set of barrels.

The toggle key would have to be removed from the iron and gradually reworked until it fits. That is, once it is confirmed that the wood is not causing the hangup. Remove the forend iron assembly from the wood and install it on the barrels. If it will not seat with the toggle engaged, then the toggle needs to be reworked. If it does fully install, then the wood needs to be reworked.
