FOR SALE: a custom Contender 22LR carbine barrel built from a stainless Shilen blank by Jeff Fowler (Silhouette Specialties, Roy, Utah). These custom Fowler Contender barrels are HIGHLY sought after by serious handgun silhouette shooters because of Jeff’s impeccable, professional craftsmanship and the match quality he built into each of his barrels. This 21” Shilen has an un-tapered contour (approx. 0.82” diameter) and is one of the few carbine length barrels that Jeff ever built. After he built it for me, I set it up with a black Contender ‘partridge’ front sight and Williams ‘Fool-Proof rear receiver (peep) sight. It’s fired only maybe 100 rounds and is sub-moa accurate! I’m asking $295 with actual shipping & insurance charges extra. I also have a Gen1 Contender buttstock and forend stock that could be packaged with this barrel for the right price. Pictures are available in the Campfire Image Gallery here: Shilen Contender Carbine Barrel.
I prefer payment via a U.S. Postal Service money order for the fastest return shipment but I’ll also take a personal check if you’ll wait 5-7 working days for it to clear my credit union. I don’t recommend cash except for F-T-F and I don’t use PayPal or any other online payment services. Thanks for looking!
