    Contender 25-35

    I have a T/C Contender with octagon 25-35 barrel in the original Styrofoam box with paper work. How rare are these?
    Thanks

    Not very, There are a lot more octagonal than bulls I see for sale. I only look for shooter barrels so no idea what box and papers add.

    Humm does the paper work say when it was made?? Lots of barrels were released through the collector's association.
    I started out with nothing and I still have most of it left.

    I believe the octagon 25-35 was dropped as a factory Contender chambering in 1979.
