    Barrels for the Encore and Contender are not interchangable.

    well i'd like to try the 308, but i'll go with the g2 for the 223 ,44 mag ,357 mag and 22 lr. and the older contender barrels will work on the g2. thank you guys , doug

    The older contender barrels will go on the G2 frame but the G2 barrels will not go on the older conterder frames. From what I've seen, there are more choices in barrels for the encore then the contender. Especially aftermarket.
