I am not sure why you think you are getting a thumbs down. As far as I read the guys are being honest and think you have a nice gun as is, and there is no reason why it won't last through many generations of your family.
To answer Steve Huffmans question regarding when the first beavertail forend was made I had to consult TPS. Page 145 tells us the term "beavertail" was one Remington used. Parker Brothers always referred to it as a "trap model forend". The first one made was in 1915 (A1S 171598) but it did not appear in their catalogs until 1926. The reinforced forend loop started around 1918.
