He sent some of his custom guns to us to sell for them. I will get more into these guns in the next day or so but one is so rare that I wanted you to see it. And before I do remember these guns have been in storage for probably 20 years and we have not yet cleaned them up so look past the wear on the finish. This gun is based on the TC Contender frame. We built it for him in 1987 or '88. It is 1 of only 2 guns made in this caliber. He hunted with it at the Tellico Junction preserve taking a couple of big hogs.
ONLY 2 MADE ( #001 - #002 )
