Thanks for the help guys! I ordered one off ebay and it arrived today. It is used, but the fit is almost perfect. Just needs a slight adjustment to the hole for the barrel band screw. Easy peasy. Hard part is going to be getting it and the buttstock to match in finish. As far as the metal, I'm still leaning towards browning the barrel, receiver and mag tube. The other parts, I'll have to look at, but I may just put them back the way they are. Really, if I come out of this with something that's assembled, functions, and isn't just completely hideous, I'm way ahead on this deal. So far, I'm into it for the cost of the forearm. I'll probably replace springs, if available, but I'm not spending a fortune on this. Too many Smiths to buy.
