Just got back from the Tulsa Gun Show.
I visited Ed's Contender's Table in the show ( up on the upper level ).
He had a " bazillion " Thompson Contender barrels for sale.
I bought this one, a 12 " heavy bull barrel, 45 ACP, made in the T/C Custom Shop.
I have about a dozen bullet moulds for the 45 ACP and a 50 lb. box of WCC empty brass.
I have about a 100 of each of these cast and ready to test.
I figure the 45 ACP out of a closed breech, 12" barrel will behave in a similar fashion to the .44 Spec. I don't plan on " hot roding " this one however.
I have 700 X, B'Eye, Unique, Power Pistol, AA # 2, AA # 5, Amer. Sel.
This will keep me busy for some time to come.
