What do they move on the armor alloy barrel and frame to make other Contender barrels and frames interchange? Anyone have pictures?

It is just a different sized hole.

Joe, are you talking about putting blued barrels on a armor alloy frame or the opposite.

If you send one back to T/C they say they can convert it to interchange all barrels with blued and stainless frames and barrels. I was just wondering what they did to it. I would be putting stainless barrels on a armor alloy frame.

The AA have a smaller hinge pin. They essentially just ream it out to the standard 'Tender/G2 pin. You shouldn't have to send all barrels in, just the frame, unless you have some other AA tubes.

I was told to use emory cloth on the hinge and on the hole on the barrel lug to remove the AA finish, that way I could use AA barrels and blued barrels on my AA frame.
