I have always like the looks of the pewter forend myself. I bought a used Saddle Rifle with the Schnabel tip and have been thinking about having Shiloh changing it out for the pewter one. I called yesterday and just for the standard grade wood without the AA finish it would be almost $500 o I think I will leave it as is. Since I am not too far away from retirement I might need to order up myself a "Retirement Gift" too. I have always wanted a .40-90 SBN anyway!
Get it with a heavy barrel.
