I had two Contenders..... bought an Encore and sold it without firing a shot.
When my brother in law passed I had his Contender, his G2 and his Encore. The Contender was the only frame I kept. Now I have a "pair and a spare".
The G2 and the Encore just don't have the same feel as the Contender.

I have only an Encore with multiple pistol and rifle barrels. It can do absolutely anything I could ever ask of a firearm except shoot repeat shots very quickly.  |

I might have a spare Encore laying around if you need one! I just sold one of my two. I like them, but I just never got into them! I might try a Contender some day. I may even keep this Encore because I have a dream of a 470 Nitro Express Encore with a short barrel and a large muzzle break. Several other African calibers would also work. |

Before S&W bought TC and moved them to Mass., it was a 5 minute drive over to their Custom Shop. Because they were in the area there were always tons of used barrels in the area shops fore sale... Bought this G2 frame from the Custom Shop not long before they moved...  50 yards...  This is what I have left... .22 Jet, .38 Super, .38 Super scoped, .30 Carbine, .22 Long Rifle, .45 Colt/.410 and a Custom one of a kind Bellm .41/.445 SuperMag  They are really too accurate...Bob |

I've had a lot of different TC's, but never an Encode. Everything from .22 to 444 Marlin..ouch!!
Off the top of my head...22 lr, 7TCU, 30 Herrett, 357 Herrett,22 Hornet, 357/44 Bain & Davis, 30-30 AI,44 Mag(3 or 4),375 Winchester, 444 Marlin, favorites being 22H,7TCU and 44 Mag.
I liked the 10 inchers...mostly ;-)
I traded my last one for a 44 mag Marlin carbine..
