Picked up a contender

[carpsniperg2]

i know one thing i need to stop buying guns and bows and etc but i keep finding killer deals 3 new guns and 1 new bow in 3 weeks i got this t/c contender from a guy in town last night it is a stainless contender with syn fore grip and a syn pistol grip and he threw in the folding rifle stock as well. it has a 16 super 16" 223 rem barrel on it. looked at the barrel last night online and it alone was 320 i picked this gun up for 250.00 cash i am very happy with it "note it did not have the hollow sight sight on it, i just put it on it" if anyone wants a contender barrel he has a 221 222 and 7mm tcu barrel left i did not want to have to buy a bunch of new brass and dies and etc so i only got the 223 barrel because that is what i wanted. i didn't think i would ever buy one since i have a few great hunting handguns already but this will be my new tractor buddy. and i could not pass on this deal i am going to get a scope for it but i put the hollow sight on it just to mess around tell i get a new scope for it.

Should be a fun toy in the old tractor.  Hard to drive a straight line when you are lookin for movin targets.

[carpsniperg2]

you got that right and when i see a yote i have to put in in park and leave the rpms up because if you pull it down and they hear it they seem to take off makes for a challenging shot

[benhuntin]

And im sure you get out of the rig right

Awesome...
I have an Encore rifle with 300wm and 22-250 barrels and my dad hunted deer back east as long as I can remember with his Contender super 14 in 7mm TCU.
Have fun with it.

I am jealous I just paid 200 for just a barrel.  If you have time and don't mind I would be interested in the 222 barrels info.  anyway great find and great deal.  becareful they can be a little addictive if you start buying barrels.

And im sure you get out of the rig right

disabled permit just got to shut off the power to the motor

and yes the barrels can be addicitive for sure but the 223 is the only one i realy want i have bigger handguns i can use if i want to hunt bigger game. huntinhick i will shoot you a pm with the guys number and you can call him if you like and ask about the 222 barrel.
and jackelope he still has a 7mm tcu for sale

And glass for each one too...

 

[carpsniperg2]

o yeah he has scopes on all of them as well i told him to keep the cheap scope he had on it like a sportscraft 2x or somthing like that but there are some good scopes on the other barrels left for sale

[jackelope]

Did he have any rifle barrels for sale?
I'm not into the pistol thing yet.

p.s. you can get a trigger job done on them and they work out real nice.
www.bellm.com is the place for upgrade stuff if you're interested.

[carpsniperg2]

i just talked to the guy a min ago and he is going to look into what he wants for them he also said he still has the other 2 barrels and the guy ditched on him and di not buy them. the barrels he has and they all have some kind of scope lower end stuff 50-100 are a 221 222 7/30 waters 6.5mm tcu and a 7mm tcu if and one is intrested i could help you out shoot me a pm and let me know what you would like and when he gets back to me with a $ i will email you guys.  

thanks for the link jackelope no he just has these pistol barrels but they are pretty reasonable i would bet if you wanted to start geting a few

Somebody should get that 7/30 Watters.
I love mine.  Nice little deer cartridge. 

[carpsniperg2]

jackelope, wow that is a great place was just surfin a bit and 55 for a trigger job thats pretty sweet he is kinda the go to guy then by the looks of it.

[jackelope]

Yes he is.
The best and 1st upgrade should be the upgraded tighter fitting hinge pins IMO.
