Anybody know of any forums or groups dedicated strictly to contenders and encores?

Mike Bellm used to have a forum on his site, but I think he shut it down. He's a wealth of information on all things T/C.

specialty pistols is one, and there is a forum at Ed's TCs. Google them and you'll get there. Both good forums, especially specialty pistols.

T/C Bunch is another site. Here's the link. http://tcbunch.com/home/index.php5?title=Main_Page

thanks guys!

www.handgunhunt.com (http://www.handgunhunt.com) is 80 % T/C chatter.
