tomthbomb Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/15/05 Posts: 3955 Loc: Deep East Texas	I was pretty big in the T/C Contender world a few of decades ago. I am thinning my collection and am looking for a resourse for current prices on mainly older original model barrels in some unusual calibers. Any ideas are appreciated.

Wayne Wayne, I was a member years ago and even had a write up on my 300 Savage barrel published in the journal. Going to join again. For some reason I now have more time to enjoy the things I did a long time ago. _________________________ Tom Welch RKS #4868
