Encore models

What's the difference between an Encore Pro-Hunter and and Encore Endeavor?

Is it just cosmetics?

I have an Endeavor frame and from everything that I can tell it is just cosmetics. It has the swing hammer and the ribs on the gussets on the Encore frame sides. As of now it can only be have by buying a Endeavor muzzle loader complete gun. The last that I have heard.

Hi guys
I believe the difference is in the breech plug. The endeavor offers a hand twist breech plug that is not compatible with the 1/4 turn prohunter plug. Everything else is the same :)

Ed's has just the frame with trigger job for $355 + 6 shipping and you can put whatever set up you want on it. I just ordered one with a Katahdin ML and have a Boyd's stock waiting for it. I will post pictures when I get it together. He is great to deal with.

That is the price for the Endeavor frame.

Ok that took longer to get together than I thought. Here is the photo of the endeavor put together.

It is a Katahdin custom shop barrel on it and a 20ga slug barrel in the other slot in the case.

Closeup of the frame.The last I knew Ed had some frames still available.

Hi Chuck

long time no see. How have you been?
