Field Grade foreend metal finish ?Archived Message

I have an opportunity to purchase a nice looking 20 gauge Field Grade, which according to the serial # was manufactured in 1949. The issue that concerns me about this gun is that the metal in the foreend is case colored and not blued like another Field Grade that I own. I would welcome any feedback about this from someone with more knowledge than myself as I do not want to purchase a refinished gun.
