"Round" forends with octagon barrels?
« on: March 21, 2010, 08:28:51 AM »
Will the standard factory Contender forend that fits a bull barrel work with an octagon barrel?  Or does it need to be hogged out to fit?

The factory octagon barrels I have seen are smaller than the bull channel and should work but have a lot of gap.
