How about a little rumor for a change?

I am hearing that TC has been sold, again. No word yet on who has bought them. Another rumor was that TC will only be making and selling black powder rifles, for the first few months. That second rumor looks to me a bit more BS than anything. I do know that TC has a large amount of black powder barrels and stocks, but that doesn't mean diddly. I was a bit disappointed that in the videos I saw the new owner didn't go into mentioning the encore handguns and rifles except for one quickie blurb showing an encore frame being polished. Me being strictly a handgunner the fate of TC's handguns is of importance to me plus America's handgunners will suffer a serious blow to our sport.
The current owner seemed to me extremely anxious to get some product out to the public and I do know he and his backers have a lot of money tied up in this current sale of TC.
The various videos the owner made and released to the public were very positive and upbeat so it sure seems to be stretching things to say they have been sold again.
If you know FOR SURE that TC has been sold again,and have it written in blood, please let me know. No more rumors please.

Also while I am rambling about the gun sport, in the news this week Beretta is trying seriously to buy Ruger even to the point of trying to do a hostile takeover of Ruger's stocks. That would be the final nail in the coffin for Ruger.

I really need a G2 frame ….

I have one of your Pirate barrels in 356GNR that I need a frame for. I was hoping to get a frame …..
What are my options now?

You can still get a frame....off the net. You will probably

have to pay a bit more but it will be worth it to get a G-2 frame. In my opinion the G-2 frame is the finest frame TC has ever put out. IF you wait a while and TC does sell, again, then the price will probably double. Get on the internet now and lock one in before they are all gone. In fact one of the Misfits might have an extra frame thry will part with at a reasonable price.

If you want an original style Contender frame, the SSK50 is readily available.
