Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Single Shots TC bought by Hornady?

Looks like its happening… coming 4-30-24

I hope so! The brand shouldn't end up dying with S&W. That just doesn't feel right.

Hah I have some warranty work I want done on a Massatwoshits barrel. Off center chamber.

Heard last night Glen Butcher who owns a sporting goods store in Wabash, IN bought TC 🤷🏼‍♂️

I do wish someone would save this great brand.

Greg Ritz also back as part owner

Source(s)?

Youll get a news release in a couple days.

I hope this happens

Is it really HQ'd in Wabash, Indiana??

Yes along w manufacturing

Maybe they will start to make muzzleloaders again. Real ones, with flintlocks.

My guess is that the new TC won't go that direction. The old TC had already found the original line of sidelock frontstuffers were not profitable. That's why they went to modern inlines. It's a shame. Those old TCs were awesome.

I think the Contender will come back. I think the Encore will be resurrected. The Compass line was of excellent quality, but I don't know how well it sold. I also think some of the TC frontstuffers will be back.

The sidelocks have a small but steady following. I pick them up from time to time, futz around with sight improvements, and more recently with a 209 priming setup for BH209, but invariably pass them on to others. The Renegades and Hawkens are easy to sell, but a Greyhawk I have is lingering in the local sale paper, probably because it’s a .54. It’s unfired as yet, NIB actually, but if it doesn't move I’ll probably shoot it someday when I’m bored…..

There’s no shortage of parts for them as parting-out seems to be more profitable than selling entire rifles, as well as being ebay-legal.

Glad to see T-C is coming back ! Hope it puts a real bad hurt on SSK and their line of junk ! To bad JD Jones sold SSK it has been a death wish by the news owners !

I bet the boys at MGM will be glad to see new T/C frames coming back.
