Try R02332, that's the smooth cinn lam forend from the last retail parts price list that H&R published in 2007.

The only natural laminated stock that H&R has ever made is what is referred to as laminated pallet wood, they only made them a few years, so I wouldn't plan on finding one to match the Boyd's stock unless someone wants to part with the forend that matches the stock they bought with it.

Post a WTB ad in the H&R WTB forum and check with Ed at GSI would probably be your best bet.  ;) You may be able to refinish a cinn lam forend to match with a little experimenting.

Checked in with H&R again today.  Claim the only cinnamon laminate forend is the checkered version and it is still on back order.  Been almost 3 weeks.   Hmmm . . .  :(

When, I got home today there was a small box on the porch with the Remington logo on it.  I was clueless.  Then it dawned on me  :o, the cinnamon laminate forend that was backordered. 

It is the smooth, non-checkered version that I was told was not available - haha.  Guess they forgot about the shipping email too.  Anyway, glad it got here when it did.  I had checked with Boyds and was about to order a Nutmeg stock blank to get a piece of matching wood.  BTW, part # is FR02332.
