Thompson Center Contender tune up kit
The essential items for tuning up your Thompson Center Contender
Our best package for reloaders and anyone seeking the ultimate tune up to your Contender. (This kit is for the Contenders only, although some parts will work with G2 there is a very specific tune up kit available for the G2. Select from the drop down menu the model of contender you have if unsure please fee free to contact us.)
Here in one place are all the critical items you need to make Contender's work right, backed by over 45 years of experience working with tens of thousands of TC shooters.
Do it yourself, "No Gunsmith Required."
Some "out of the box" TCs shoot just great as they are, but all Contender's need some help due to the many variables in barrels, frames, and ammo in the less than perfect Contender interchangeable barrel system.
With any mass produced item, when there is a problem the usual procedure is to "send it back to the factory." However, we have found over and over again that the factory simply does not have the policy or procedures in place to cure problems inherent in their interchangeable barrel, break open system.
Usually you spend about $15 or more sending a problem barrel back to the factory, only to still have the same problem, usually a problem with accuracy or misfires or both with the next barrel when in all probability the first barrel would have shot just fine if given the chance to do so. Often shooters send barrels back many times before either getting lucky or giving up after spending a sinful amount of wasted time and money. I say sinful, because there is something inherently wrong with this picture.
Additionally, TC states that no frame leaves the factory with less than a 5 pound trigger pull, which is hardly suitable for you to do your best shooting.
Included in our Tune Up Kit are the absolutely essential items EVERY Contender shooter must have to make the gun work reliably and accurately. It addresses everything except forend bedding. A tighter fitting hinge pin. A lighter Trigger pull. A better barrel lockup. Measuring and correcting headspace. Get the all included kit for a huge discount versus buying it all separately.

While a little over $100 is a lot to spend on top of what the TC guns cost originally, just to make them work right, but it is a situation where you either do it right to start with or pay a lot more later on! Once the investment is made, the money and time saved and the many years of satisfaction these guns deliver are priceless. Make success with G2s a big part of your hunting and shooting experiences. The hunt or the trip to the range is short lived. The memory lasts a lifetime! A $179.00 if purchased separately. Save time money and frustration. All the Essential tools needed to service your Contender in a value packaged kit. No more guessing, order a BELLM TUNE UP KIT.
Please note that you will be selecting the generation of Contender kit needed from the drop down menu. We have done our best to give you all possible variants however it is up to you to determine the correct kit needed AND please excuse us for missing something. Most frames under 195K that have not had the easy open conversion have the CONE trigger guard spring but that's not to say there are exceptions. Please remove your grip and determine which spring is needed. If a mistake is made in ordering please let us know so we can get you the correct springs needed. We always take care of our customers at BELLM TCs.
