Anybody know the grade of steel in Contenders?
« on: June 27, 2003, 05:21:23 AM »
Yes, I have fallen off the band wagon in a huge way. I am working on a full custom contender carbine. I desperately need to know the metal composition on  a contender frame. I called T/C and they didn't know what type of metal was used for the castings. 4120, 4140, 5160, etc. All they seem to know is it a spot harded at the breach and pin.

thanks
Doc

PS Ultimately, anyone know of a color case hardened contender frame?
