I really like the octagonal  barrels for light weight off hand plinking, just made a custom wood set for my contender with 221 fireball octagonal barrel. Don't know about the dating of the eight sided barrels
I can custom make a forend for your octagonal barrel in any style you like. If you end up not liking it , I might be will to trade you some custom contender woodwork for your barrel.

Hi
I'm not positive but I believe the 10 oct. forearm will fit your 8 3/4 barrel. If you don't have one let me know and I will check to see if it fits.
