It must be stuck. Sorry I had to say that, Squeeze real hard with hand below latch and frame and then try the latch and pull .

I just put my finger in te SLOT between the Bbl. the wood, with my other hand grabbing the barrels (just about 6" above my hand) , and then- PULLED LIKE I MEANT IT!
SHAZAM...IT CAME OFF! That's it, BILL.
When in doubt......take directions, private!

A word of caution here...jerking the for end wood forcefully could damage or crack it.

Oh, sorry....let me reiterate: "gently overcoming, with just enough inertia to release the
staunch friction of superb inletting", and then clean the metal and lightly oil.
Of course, we know that "jerking" one's wood could release anything too prematurely and cause inappropriate separation.

This is what you need to make Trojan forend removal safe and easy

PDD


Trojan Forend Removal Tool

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This tool is made of flexible nylon and should not mar the wood if used properly. It will easily and smoothly remove the forend from Parker Trojans, Fox Sterlingworth, L.C. Smith Field Grade, Ithaca Nitro Special, Ithaca Flues and probably any other SXS shotgun with the snap on forend.

No prying necessary - Simply slide the tool flat along the barrels directing tip under forend and the forend will easily pop off.

Best of all, no more chipped or cracked forent tips.

$6.00 Shipped to US and Canada.

Order by PM or e-mail dsromig@aol.com and type "Forend Tool" in the title line.

Bill Erickson - If your barrels are undamaged, the too-snug fit on your forearm is likely due to a build-up of finish/patina/rust/dirt or whatever on the back-end of the front barrel lug. Next time you get the thing off, take a very fine grit sandpaper and LIGHTLY rub the back surface of the lug. I have refinished a few damascus barrels and even a few thou build-up of new finish can interrup the smooth removal and replacement of the forend resulting in my having to take the finish down to where the forend fits again. Have your barrels been redone at all? Is the forend difficult to put back on?

What Ed said, but don't remove any metal or you may encounter problems of a different sort.
