This is the gun that started my collection.  The first purchase was 22LR with 10" bull barrel, then I added a 14" 223, at the top, then the 45LC/410 at the bottom, with the latest being a 44 mag with the red dot type scope. 

The second photo is my complete handgun collection, all 22s.

Thompson Contender, Ruger Mk II, DW, and a Colt Frontier Scout.

I really need to add some centerfires, like a matching DW 15 pac and an auto or two.

One of these days, when I've slowed down on myDWAS I'm going to get myself a few TC's to play with.Laugh I've long considered them to be an interesting gun concept. 

Thanks for sharing theCool Pics

Nice collection!

A TC has always been on my short list.  Hopefully one day I will stumble upon a good deal.

Nice collection! The 10" .22 Contender was also my first of this type, ordered in 1985. It was the start of my silhouette collection and is a great shooter. Makes an excellent gun for teaching new shooters also, and you just can't beat a .22LR.

Nice T/C pistols. I have them in the 30-30, .223, .44, .22 match grade barrel. The big boys with compensated barrels.  They are fun to shoot. I use a Contender scope on one. And a Tasco on another one.
