1) I don't have a Contender, much less one that old
2) I don't have a milling machine
and finally

3) What makes you think I'd trust you with such sensitive information? Razz

If I can get it, I'll be more than happy to share



thanks Richard you have been a great help Smile

Just to clarify, I'm referring to this....

There are bull barrels you can shoot, including super14's, but they'd have to be the "right ones". There IS A FIX you can do, and be able to shoot ANY contender barrel (except an intact G-2 Muzzie). You will need to machine the trigger guard. The issue is the STEP LUG and your frame, and no, the solution is not to machine the step off. Three minutes on a mill fixes it forever. If this is something you want to do, PM me and I'll get you set up with how to do this.

Honestly, I have all the barrels I want or could ever need..... wait, look, there's another!!
