gowest Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Is there a difference in slug barrels for a SBE and a SBE 2? Does 1 barrel fit both guns? Also, I thought I once read that an additional forearm was needed with a slug barrel on one or both of these guns....is that true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldFlick Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I will answer your questions w/statement of what I know. Newer barrels have a longer mating surface of the magazine ring. This can cause forearm fit problems w/older gun and newer barrel combo, forearm can be modded. The newer barrels have rifle sights. I think the newer barrel will fit stock forearm. The older barrels(marked and made by E R Shaw) do not have rifle sights. They have a thicker wall than newer barrels and require a SBE I slug barrel forearm. The shot barrel(SBE I or SBEII) forearm can be enlarged to fit a old slug barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
U.Hunter Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 So Flick since I have the new M2 I should not have to order a new forearm for the barrel I just got, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gowest Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 So, if I purchased a new slug barrel for my SBE 2, would I also need to purchase an additional fore arm? Sorry to be so dense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldFlick Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 No new forearm. The new barrels are same ouitside dia., slug or shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
