WILL NEW TC CONTENDER BARRELS FIT OLDER CONTENDERS UPGRADE
More Bellm upgrade parts such as Spring Kits, Hammer extensions, oversize pins. Some spring kits for the Encore in stock. But I am very careful to remember this little quirk whenever I am shooting it. New shipment of barrels should be here in the next day or two Encore and Contender barrels as well as various forends. I love the set trigger feature, and with a 12" K-Hornet barrel it's a superb woodchuck killer. This is why the later versions of the Contender have a more conventional fire control arrangement. Later on he leaned over, the gun fell out and landed on the hammer, killing him. There was at least one major lawsuit over this, where a hunter had "decocked" the piece and put it back into a shoulder holster. **The hammer is now resting on a live primer if there is a round chambered.** A blow to the hammer spur can fire the piece, as you might well expect.

If the trigger is pulled with hammer NOT cocked, the hammerblock slide is free to retract if the hammer is manipulated even the slightest bit, thereby taking pressure off the slide. When you pull the trigger with the hammer cocked, this slide is retracted by a spring.
When the trigger is cocked by opening the gun, a hammer-block slide is interposed between hammer and frame, like many revolvers. (Try it.) While this setup makes for a delightfully light trigger pull, it has a potentially fatal flaw. The Gen 1 has a unique set trigger system, which is why you can dry-fire it without ever cocking the hammer. T/C used to offer excellent service, but its changed a bit since going to S&W.This thread gives me an opportunity to mention a serious drop-safety issue with early Contenders. There is a really good smith in California that specializes in these, let me know if you need any more help! T/C used to offer excellent service, but its changed a bit since going to S&W. 357 barrels both standard round barrels? Some were octagon. When you day the forend doesn't fit, are the screw holes not lining up or is the barrel channel too shallow? I would imagine the. At practical shooting ranges the G2 Contender is a nice tool for woodland shooting and though the trigger is heavy and you have to learn to control it, the rifle is one of those that you really warm to when you take it out and use it. I also acquired an old Tasco ProClass 4×30 scope and a ton of 41 Mag, 45 Colt, 222Rem, and 6.5×55SE brass in the deal along with (50) 6 shot 410 shells. 22 barrels, and Super 14 barrels in 7-30. Scored a 45/410 barrel and a 222Rem barrel The 222Rem is an octogon 10' barrel and the 45/410 is a 10' round barrel with internal choke and sights. I shoot mine all off sandbags, and typically wear a glove with heavier calibers. Years ago, I swapped the trigger spring on an easy-open frame with a cut down spring from a Bic lighter, must have been around 1.5lbs. Trigger pulls can be taken down pretty light, but most were pretty good from the factory. How do you change yours from centerfire to rim fire? Some have a slide across the hammer, the earlier ones rotated on the face of the hammer.
(3) 3 product ratings - Thompson Center G2 Contender Pistol Barrel - Blued 10 30-30 Winchester. I have a 5-digit SN that is a 2nd year of production, and there is no conversion available (at least to make it an "easy open"). Thompson Center G2 Contender Pistol Barrel - Blued 10 30-30 Winchester. Some can be converted to "easy open" style, but the really early ones can't. What is the best grip technique to use without your supporting hand getting knuckled by the trigger guard? What's the best way to source a foreend for that one? Do they have some kind of number/size scheme I can reference? Both seem about the same size, and I know at least one of them fits both the. Did these require fitting? Or should I just lube the crap out of everything that moves since this example has been sitting untouched for over 20 years? There seems to be some inconsistency in the way the three barrels fit, and it sometimes requires some significant force on the lever to open it. I got an opportunity to grab this one, and I went for it without a huge amount of thought. I've had a curiosity about these guns for a while now, but I've never owned or shot one before, and I haven't exactly done any in-depth research. Watch your base screws and keep them tight or use thread lock.
If you load for it you'll find you dont need max loads. The 44 can give some recoil so be ready for that. Your 44 is best suited to your scope on 2x for woods work and you can go to 6x on the range. I recently acquired an older Thompson Contender (1973ish). The G2 barrels are supposed to fit existing frames.
