It's a nice gun, the forend should be repaired by a professional, and there just aren't any other problems. All this special care for #1 frame guns is not neccesary. A #1 frame gun is the same size as a #1/2 frame gun and Remington made trap and skeet guns on the #1/2 frame.
Turnbull said that they believed just the metal was sent in for case colors and the work was done that quickly. BTW my photo skills leave something to be desired. The CC appear very differently in photos of the same part largely due to angle and reflection from lighting.
