Problem with Curtis forend releaseArchived Message

Hi, I just purchased a Field Grade 12 ga gun, manufactured in 1913 according to the database here. It has the 3 position safety, extractors, and 30 inch barrels. Case colors are gone and it looks like someone polished the sideplates and action to remove corrosion.
When I purchased it I was unable to remove the forend at the shop, but the price was good so I bought anyway. In any event, the button does not want to depress at all and I was wondering if you might have any suggestions. Looking at the forum archives I haven't come across this problem before.
