I tried a search and couldn't find anything, so I thought I would mention it.

A gunsmith friend of mine who is friends with J.D. and Brian at SSK mentioned to me that they had recently been bought out by Lehigh Defense. Apparently, they are bringing back the original Contender, calling it the SSK-50. The frames are listed as on pre-order through Haus of Arms, and from the photos, appear to be a reboot of the G1 frames, of which I am a huge fan. I am not much of a handgun hunter, but I love Contender Carbines, so I think I am going to pick one up. At $275, I was pleasantly surprised. It's hard to find a good used frame for that anymore.

I may just use this is an excuse to have SSK fix me up with a 21" Contender Carbine barrel chambered in 6.5JDJ to go with it.

Here's the link in case anyone else is interested.
