When I reassembled I could not get the forend back on. It was only after a lot of frustration that verbal abuse of the Parker I realized the the ejectors had tripped. With a lot more physical and verbal persuasion I cocked the ejectors and everything operated normally. L.C. Smiths on the other hand have the ejector cocking mechanism in the frame assembly. If you dry fire before removing the forend you will need to reset the ejectors ( they made a tool for this ) or you can use a small wrench as a lever to Reset them. Lots of L.C. Smith forend wood has been damaged by people attempting to reinstall the forend with the ejectors tripped. |

Dean and Edgar you can, awkwardly, remove the fore end that way but why you would is beyond me. Did it on an ejector gun and had to re-cock them. Again it is awkward and clumsy. Used a piece of brass stock and re-cocking went well but will not do that again.
No hero photos but got the one i wanted on the first cast and not another strike after. |

I can imagine with your attention being paid to the fore end, the barrels could easily fall off the gun. OK if you're doing it on the carpet, but not on the side of a dirt road.
One of the guys who shoots with us is the type who goes nuts when you tell him not to do something. There was an extra button on a remote I hooked up for our old trap, and we told him "Under NO Circumstances should you EVER push button C" I will not tell him Not to remove his fore end with the gun open. |
