Scarce Unaltered Boxed Thompson Center Contender 45 Colt Bull Barrel W/Choke Not 410

This is a 10 inch rifled Bull Barrel for the original Thompson Center Contender with internal choke for the .45 Colt cartridge.  This is a rare, unaltered barrel produced during the time when T/C had to cease production of .410 shotgun barrels and  was listed in the early T/C catalog as a barrel with internal choke “for use with Hot Shots or Handloaded shot cartridges” and is NOT for .410 shells.  The original bluing is still present indicating that is has not been altered to accept .410 shells (those have bright steel showing from the professional reaming.  The barrel remains in excellent condition with light use marks and excellent bore in the original Thompson Center box with the straight rifled choke installed, no forearm or wrench are included with this version.  A shot run barrel for the serious T/C collector
