Based on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thompson/Center_Contender
Mine woud be an origional frame variant 2 with the selector for rim/centerfire on top of the hammer in smooth walnut. Have several barrels for it 218 bee, 22 hornet and the 7mm int come to mind right away - all are less then inch group at 100 yards on a sandbag. hard to come by barrels for the older frames, but they do sometimes turn up - but most are really proud of them.
Three variants of the original Contender design were later developed, distinguished easily by the hammer design. The first variant has a push button selector on the hammer for choosing rimfire vs. centerfire, the second variant has a left-center-right toggle switch for selecting center fire-safe-rimfire firing pins, and the third variant has a horizontal bolt selection for choosing center fire-safe-rimfire firing pin positions
