==Variants==
I've noticed that there seem to be two distinct versions of the Contender - one with a larger, thinner trigger guard and thicker trigger (especially up top), like
[[File:TCAC short barrel with scope.jpg|thumb|none|450px|this example,]]
and one with a smaller, thicker trigger guard and thinner trigger, like
[[File:ThompsonCenterContender.jpg|thumb|none|450px|this example.]]
Does anyone know if these are distinct/named variants? I can't seem to find any concrete info, though it seems as though the latter version is the current one - I can't find any evidence of the former on T/C's website, nor any examples of the former in more recent configurations (e.g. the muzzleloader variants). Regardless, if anyone has any info on what's going on here, it'd be much appreciated. [[User:Pyr0m4n14c|Pyr0m4n14c]] ([[User talk:Pyr0m4n14c|talk]]) 01:56, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
