Encore

Contender

SINCE THE FIRST CONTENDER pistol was made in 1967, the Contender® has been the choice of serious handgun hunters throughout the world. The reputation this pistol has achieved in terms of its versatility, “minute of angle” accuracy and proven long range performance is unquestioned. When demanding hunters and IHMSA target shooters wanted a handgun that would perform, they chose the Contender. Now, 35 years later, the second generation Contender Pistol emerges and it only got better.

THE VERSATILITY OF THE G2 Contender® is unmatched by any other handgun in the world. From plinking and small game hunting with rimfire cartridges, to varmint and big game hunting with centerfire rifle cartridges, the G2 Contender will continue to be the handgun of choice for those that pride themselves in wanting only the best.

G2 Contender® Compatibility with Old-Style Contenders
The G2 Contender frame will accept all Contender barrels and their corresponding forends (except Herrett forend). The G2 frame will not accept old-style grips because of the change in grip angle. Blued or stainless barrels are readily interchangeable.

T/C ENCORE SINGLE SHOT PERFORMANCE & VERSATILITY UNEQUALLED BY ANY OTHER FIREARM!

It’s no secret that the Encore® is the most technologically advanced muzzleloader ever created.
