photos wanted-16'' contender carbine
« on: January 04, 2007, 11:59:27 PM »
Still deciding on barrel length for carbine.
Would appreciate photos of 16'' barrel contender carbines.
With bull barrel even better.


Thanks

Soon as I can locate my pics I will post one for you. I have a 16 1/2" .221 FB full bull set up as a carbine but FYI if I had to do it again I would have made it a little longer. A slightly longer carbine on a Contender format balances better for me...I like 21" depending on caliber.

Hope this helps.  I also have a Super 16 .223 barrel, which has the conventional carbine forend on it.

From SSK's site.  My personal .45-70 carbine looks about identical except it is blued.
