1984 Contender with 357 Max Barrel
« on: April 18, 2004, 01:19:42 PM »
I saw a Contender with a 10" 357 Max barrel.  All was in very nice condition.  The frame dates to 1984.  Seller was asking $350.  Does that seem fair?

Hi Ski,

You say all was very nice, so I would say this is a fair price.
Maybe even a bit of a bargain.

Take Care

(excuse me I a,m not sure of dates and serial numbers here) is if the serial number is over 195,000 as this was the number quoted to me as being the frames of the easy opening variety if its not an easy open frame you will have to send it to T/C to have the conversion done to the tune of $55 IF you want the easy open feature. If you can live with the frame as is them no matter but it is a consideration. By the way at that price its a pretty good deal and a great caliber.
