EMT Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 I have a Beretta 682 Gold E that I have owned from new and is about 3 years old. It probably gets used about a dozen times a year. When cleaning it I noticed that the lugs on the barrel, that forend locks onto, seem to be worn on one side. As far as I can remember the lug used to be symmetrical with a both sides having a "foot" which the forend latches onto. (sorry for the poor description). Now as you can see in the photo the side nearest the breech is straight. Now have I had one to many sloe gins and its always been like that or has it worn / broken off.

ste12b Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 EMT, it doesn't look broken. Have a look at your forend where it fits into and see if it is undercut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishermanpaddy Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 Pretty sure thats normal. Not trying to be funny but its not meant to be symmetrical, if you look you can see both ends of the lug are at a slight angle both inclining toward the rear of the gun, If you had the same on the other side then you would not be able to close the gun.
