Contender and G2 grips , forends
« on: May 30, 2012, 07:36:01 AM »
I have Contender action several grips, stocks, forends. My question is take a contender frame and a G2 barrel will the grips and forearms interchange.

The barrels will work on both frame just the same.
The G2 grips will not fit the original Contender since the bolt angle it different. The same goes for the original Contender will not let you use the G2 grips/stocks.
Depends on the forend if you can get the original Contender forend to work on the G2 since it has the "step" to the frame.

Yep, I agree with jbj.  Keep your grip and forend types with the same frame type, irrespective of barrel and you'll be OK.
