Mossberg 500 forend replacement

I have a Mossberg 500 pump action shotgun. I would like to replace the forend with a newer style forend. Will the newer style forends with the integrated action rods fit the older style shot guns that had seperate slide action tubes, action rods, and a wood forend all held together with a nut that threaded onto the action tube?

Be advised, those new forends are really prone to breakage where the pins are. I've had to convert a lot of them back to the action tube style for customers.
good info... [:)]

I looked for a new/used one to replace the action tube on my dads. The action tube has some very fine threads and when he put it back together....he cross threaded it. Action tube is $50 -$100 depending on if you want a brand new one or not. For the same 50 bucks I can get a new stock and forend w\integrated action rods in almost any camo print I can dream up. Seems like a good way to go.
