My opinion would be that it is definitely not an Ithaca forend, I’m starting to question if that gun originally had a beaver tail forend. I’ve never observed a forend that had those milled areas as yours.
Does the forend have the long screw going from the front of the forend that fastens to the forend metal?
Since it is a 5 with silver birds versus gold, is it in the 454,000 serial # range?
