It was a year, maybe two, right around this time a guide friend in Greenville (Maine) called me looking for a fore end for a client who had hired him. That was a 20ga. Repro. While walking, the client's fore end fell off. They back tracked but never found it. That same client is apparently a member here, as he showed up very shortly there after, looking for a replacement.
I just looked through my pieces parts, and have an ejector fore end iron, minus the guts. I also have a B grade (fully checkered) ejector piece of wood, with a lesser grade tip, and latch. It's at least a start, and you're welcome to it.
