The Contender platform uses an interchangeable-barrel system on a break-open, single-shot action. The trigger guard serves as the action-opening lever, and the pistol has a capacity of one round. Made in the United States, this example reflects T/C’s steel construction and classic blued finish.
The factory Super 14 barrel measures 14 inches, is round and heavy-profile, and is chambered in .30-30 Win. This configuration is a hallmark of the Super 14 series and is matched by a walnut beavertail forend sized for the heavier barrel contour.
Sighting equipment includes a ramped front blade. The rear open sight is absent. Leupold-marked scope bases are installed, providing a solid mounting interface; no scope is included.
The frame features factory engraving with scrollwork and a puma/cougar motif on the receiver flats. The blued steel finish complements the engraving and ties in with the walnut furniture for a cohesive factory look.
The walnut target-style pistol grip includes an alloy butt cap bearing the cougar motif; there is no coin medallion in the grip, offering a purposeful target profile. The matching walnut forend is specifically profiled for the Super 14 barrel, completing the factory-fitted set.
