Is it typical for an unissued No4 forend (N49 stamped) to be too long?
I am trying to fit one and no matter how I position it it won’t seat.
With the rear hard against the socket face, the nose absolutely will not clear the front sight.
If I install it at the front first, just behind the front sight as normal, the back end absolutely will not clear the socket.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Jon
