Description:
The concept of having one firearm that can be rechambered from one cartridge to another by simply swapping the barrel has always had an allure to it for many sportsman and the Thompson Center Contender certainly has its admirers. There are also many aftermarket options for the pistol with respect to the furniture and scope variety. The example shown here is chambered for the classic .30-30 Winchester. The .30-30 was introduced in 1895 as one of the first two smokeless rifle cartridges alongside the .25-35 cartridge. It was chambered in the Winchester Model 1894 lever action. While most commonly used for hunting deer, the .30-30 has its own following among the metallic silhouette crowd. If this does not shoot the owner’s fancy, there are many calibers available for the Contender from both the factory and aftermarket vendors. Such options include the .22 LR, .223 Rem, .22-250, .243 Winchester, .25-06 Rem, 6.5 Creedmoor, .270 Win, .280 Rem, 7mm-08, .30-06 Springfield, 308 Win, .300 Win Mag, .338 Win Mag, .35 Remington, .35 Whelen, .44 Magnum, .45-70 Gov’t and even the .460 and .500 S&W Magnum cartridges. This example is a Generation 1 Contender, meaning the action must be opened to re-cock if the hammer has been pulled back and then lowered. The pistol has seen a fair amount of use. There are some small scratch marks on the left side of the barrel in one spot. Both sides of the muzzle exhibit finish wear. The receiver exhibits 98 percent or better of its finish. The bore is in excellent shape although there are three dark spots near the front of the bore. They are fairly shallow and it is doubtful that the fired projectile would be affected. The wood furniture exhibits minor wear. The rear sight has been replaced by a scope base and rings for a Redfield 2.5x scope. The scope itself exhibits two lines of finish wear near the rings on the bottom of the scope body. There is no box.
