It is a break-action handgun, and the action is much more modern and rugged than earlier single shot rolling blocks and other types of handguns. The use of multiple barrels allows a single firearm to be used in taking a wide variety of game animals. Introduced in 1967, the Contender is a popular hunting and silhouette competition handgun. While other single-shot handguns have been introduced, none have the staying power and popularity of the Thompson Center Contender.
This top break single-shot, single-action handgun is like no other. However, the single handgun I have found to be most like a machine rest or laboratory fixture is the Thompson Center Contender.
This is a credible tack driver and among the finest fitted and finished handguns ever manufactured. I do own a couple of devices that help me shoot well such as the Bull Shooters pistol rest. I have often mentioned that I do not own a machine rest as I prefer to keep in touch with reality. Some handguns have it and some do not-the level of accuracy varies widely. However, since 8/2008 all receivers, new or used, are supposed to be transferred as "other firearm" in section 18, but that doesn't necessarily make them legal to make a pistol with, any more than a receiver transferred as "rifle" before that change makes it necessarily illegal to do so.Among the most interesting of hobbies is the pursuit of accuracy. Seems to echo what I said, as far as I understand what you say, that the actual legality of what you can do with a firearm is not determined by what an FFL decides to put in section 18 or 29 on 4473. So when I transferred the Encore receiver as that I would have gotten a visit if it was a rifle. All was cleared up as soon as the agent seen a new Nodak receiver was used. The agent claimed he made a pistol illegally from a rifle. When he sold it the FFL used the trunion serial number rather than the receiver serial number and because the trunion serial number was used previously for a rifle the seller got a visit.
He built a AK pistol on a virgin Nodak receiver. I am the 3rd owner and he 2nd owner called the first owner.Īlso, if it is a rifle and was transferred as anything else the ATF will call.
