I have found them listed in two places, ED's TC being one, well he does not have them, I can not find them any where. I can find custom shop barrels for 265, not sure if they come with the fore end but the factory ones are 230. I will spend the extra 35 but I have time to wait so why not save 35$.

If you know of any shop that has one laying around please let me know

Thanks
JD

JD;
These barrels have been discontinued, so I have been told, I think I saw some in Midways catalog. I ordered a SS one from Foxridge, they DO NOT include the forearm in thier price. Hope this helps.

I dont believe the barrels have been discontinued, just the 209x50 complete gun set (Frame, bbl, grip).
T/C still lists them on their caliber chart for Encores with a forened included.
So does FoxRidge with is T/Cs Custom shop.
Not sure about the Contenders...???
I just bought one used (complete) and its fantastic.
Good Luck to you in finding one.

when i ordered mine last year, i called eabco because they had it listed. but they called back and said they were out and tried to find one elsewhere to no avail, then were told by t/c they were discontinued. so i called fox ridge and they said it was true so i ordered it from them. it is not listed anywhere in the 2005 t/c catalog.
