From what Ive seen discussed on another forum the claim was it changes how the forend and latch comes into contact with the barrels . That it would make the forend metal closer to the lug on the barrel so the way the forend latches would need to be modified. I dont see how as you would be removing wood from the outside of the forend not inside of it .

Ive been reading and it seems one of the better 10 ga 3.5s are the AYA ones and they made a lightweight 10 ga magnum double 9lbs . The action is rounded and not as square as you see on most of these guns .

Honestly though I really like the 2 7/8 10 gauges Ive owned and hunted with . A 1 1/8oz load in a 10lb gun is probably one of the softest shooting shotguns you could hunt with .

And ammo availability doesnt really matter much when it comes to ordering 10 ga RST loads vs 10 ga 3.5" shells off the shelf . As locally all you will ever find is steel BB loads which I wouldnt shoot through one of these fixed full choked Spanish Magnums .
