Aaron,

Right you are.

I think they use the more positive lock of the Anson forend when they incorporate Southgate ejectors/easy opening.

Would it be possible to see a picture of the forend furniture of your project AYA #2 project taken down ??? or of your new 470 project forend ???

I'm particularly interesting in converting an extractor gun to ejectors..........and possibly easy opening. Any new forend would be of Anson pattern.

Any takers on your AYA project ??? Please share photos of the build if permitted. It certainly would make a lovely .303 British.

I am planning a similar project on a Leige 20guage boxlock but am looking for an AYA #2 to build a double rifle on.
