hangunnr Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 The Encore can handle the larger calibers up to the belted magnums. The G2 is limited to the smaller calibers. The G2 will take any and all barrels originally intended for the Contender firearms. There is quite a difference in the frame sizes. Top is an Encore and bottom a G2. What did you have in mind? hangunnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntinguide Posted July 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 which one has the crazy method to load and load, where you have too cock the hammer then let it down or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangunnr Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Neither.... To load these you squeeze the trigger guard and pivot the action open. When you're ready to shoot you pull the hammer back and let her rip. The old style Contenders had to have the action recocked if you cocked the hammer then let it down. hangunnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hangunnr Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 T/C corrected the problem with the early Contenders when they produced the G2. hangunnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNY_Whitetailer Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 What caliber were you looking at purchasing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest onesonek Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 I like speed, and when speed aint necessary, I like power. For those 2 reason I prefer the Encore over the G2. Although, the G2 if like the old Contender,( no experience with the G2) has a better trigger. But one can get or do a trigger job on the Encore, and have it improved.
