I feel your pain. I was cleaning my VHE and I dropped the forend from about waist high. It broke in half. It was a clean break and I sent it to Brian Dudley who fixed it for me. He said it repaired fine. Where it broke was ahead of the latch so its a relatively low stress area provided I put the forend on with the proper technique. I'd send it to Brian and see if he could fix it. He'll probably weigh in. Post a picture of it and he'll probably be able to tell you if he could repair it.
