100 views and no answer ? How many pms have you got wanting to buy it ? The prohunter 22lr barrels are very rare and command a big premium when you sell them online. I've seen up past 600 dollars.

MGM would want around $775 for a new one. So you can judge the value of your barrel from there.

Had such a bbl, NIB ( well blister pack ). Listed and took a couple months to move it. At around normal price.
What people ask for, what some sell at, aint exactly telling of the market.

If ya can get top dollar from somebody hell bent for one, great.

Never could find those folks LOL

That PH barrel IIRC is 28" and a pig.

$300 on a good day.

Sorry but it's just a barrel and there are no more frames.

Somebody wanting a 22 is going to buy a complete bolt rifle for not much more than $300.

All the old farts like us already have all the barrels that we will ever need. That's part of the reason that S&W closed TC. No demand.

You would think, but check out what they are going for on Gunbroker right now. I would say $500+ easy.

A stainless MGM barrel, without flutes, would be $475 plus shipping. Flutes would add $100. Just be patient and get what you want.

You just might have something there. Leading up to my last (and I mean last) Contender adventure, TC barrels could be found at almost clearance prices on sites like Midway. It’s long been a notion of mine that the Tupperware®️ rifles everyone was making made the TC rifles less appealing in the market, since they were initially priced at about the same level as TC factory barrels. Even TC jumped into that market with both feet. I suspect they also lost a couple of shirts with the Dimension and one or two others. Maybe the old owners saw what was coming and that prompted their sale.

Wouldn’t surprise me if when the current rush to arm prompted by fear of what the gummint will do subsides, there was another slump in gun sales overall. Happened after the last rush IIRC.


What fresh Hell is this?
