Is this barrel considered a shotgun barrel or a rifle barrel? What I mean is... will the factory fit this barrel to shotgun frames or will they only fit it to rifle frames? I suppose I could call the factory and ask but I don't have 30 extra minutes to wait on hold to talk to someone

They'll fit it to shotgun or rifle frames, it comes on an SB1 frame, look at the model numbers.

I am very curious about this 45 - 410 barrel for NEF
I assume it has rifling for the 45. Does anyone know the
rate of twist? Also in order to be able to load a 410 shell
I assume an extra long chamber.

Not that I would try it but wouldn't that mean that
someone could MISTAKENLY insert a 454 casul
or 460 SW cartridge?

Are the barrels fairly lightweigh and thin like shotgun
barrels or are they pretty thick and heavy walled?
