The only "hard to work on" opinion I have came from a very experienced doublegun smith, who actually took one apart (while I watched) and took a stone to them. He succeeded in making them a little lighter, but not much--and said he would not be comfortable going any further. Others should feel free to consult other experienced doublegun smiths, and if they're comfortable in giving you a 3 to 4 pound pull on a 28 or .410, and if you're comfortable with their work, that's up to you.

"Hard to work on" is probably the wrong phrase. Dropping the locks and getting at the triggers is not the problem. Having enough engagement to do very much honing without going too far is the issue. At least in the opinion of the gunsmith I consulted. Good enough for me.
