Description:
For consideration is a very clean Thompson Center G1 Contender chambered in .45 Colt/.410 (Up to 3" shells). The Contender needs no introduction. The Thompson/Center Contender is a break-action single-shot pistol or rifle that was introduced in 1967 by Thompson/Center Arms. It can be chambered in cartridges from .22 Long Rifle to .45-70 Government. Warren Center, working in his basement shop in the 1960s, developed a unique, break-action, single-shot pistol. In 1965, Center joined the K.W. Thompson Tool Company and they introduced this design as the Thompson-Center Contender in 1967. Although they cost more than some hunting revolvers, the flexibility of being able to shoot multiple calibers by simply changing the barrel and sights and its higher accuracy made it popular with handgun hunters. As K.W. Thompson Tool began marketing Center's Contender pistol, the company name was changed to Thompson/Center Arms Company. This particular example has a 10" barrel in .45 Colt or .410. The barrel is very nicely blued and has an outstanding bore with strong rifling. Sights are a ramped front with fully adjustable rear. The grip is a combination wood and composite/polymer rear. The safety on this version is on the hammer (when centered it is on "Safe"). It is in very good condition both mechanically and physically. Barrels are interchangeable with other G1 barrels. This Contender would be a great shooter or addition to a collection.
