Splinter Forend Woes - 28ga DHE
I have 2, 2bbl 28ga repro DHE sets, both all numbers matching, respectively, etc and had a weird hiccup yesterday. I took one set to a dove shoot and was surprisingly embarrassed (not really my friends don't care), that it was exceedingly hard to attach the splinter forend. I guess I've been shooting the one I left assembled too much; but, it took me 5 minutes to get the forend on and I had to crack the bbls a bit and then work it all back into place.
What gives?
A 20ga DHE repro I have does not have this problem, nor does the 16ga original?
It's like the forend lock base doesn't want to clear the forend lock tumbler, if I have that correct?

Reason: grammar
