Will Contender Carbine Walnut Forend suit a 14" barrel?

Forend??

No it will not fit.  The holes are spaced differently.  Options are to have a custom forend made or send the barrel off and have new dovetails cut for the carbine spacing.  I am thinking about doing the latter since I already have carbine forends and it would be cheaper than the custom forend option.
