Default long range barrels

just got in a set of lc smith long range barrels today they are 3 inch chambered and so marked.. they are 32 inch long and chokes are tight modified and full...i have a long range gun that has 30 inch barrels but both chokes are light modified..these chokes dont suit me for turkey so i bought these 32 inch barrels off ebay...turns out the barrels are about a 1000 numbers off i took the 30 inch barrels off gun and tried the 32 inch set boy was i lucky they snapped rite on...then i tried the forearms what..would not snap on it fit the back end of gun purty good but would not completely latch to the barrel it lacked about 1/2 inch a closeing..went to shop and got my small files i worked for 30 minutes filing on the fore arm hole where the latch spring goes.did not hardly scratch that iron..decided to speed up the process went took the barrels out to shop and used a die grinder on the lower end of forearm lugtook off a wee bit.yep worked just fine now fore arm will fit both barrels.. will pattern it shortly on that dr pepper can at the 70 step mark.. charlie
