Yes, I tried them and the barrels will not even start into the frame. They mike approx. .002 too wide to enter the slot in the frame. I as surprised at this also.

.002" isn't much at all. I would try smoking them and the judicious use of the finest diamond file to fit them myself.

Well, I spent two hours with smoke and fine wet stones and they now fit and work perfectly. Forend fits, ejectors work, all is good. Thank you Dean for your suggestions.

I wouldn't have had the stones to try that--and I ain't talking about whetstones!

If you take your time and use quality fine files and stones and a smoke pot, re-smoking and trial fitting after every 4 or 5 strokes it’s not so hard at all. Patience is key.
