Lot 1550:
Description
This lot features a single heavy contour replacement barrel assembly designed for the Thompson/Center Arms Encore break-action system. Chambered in the high-velocity .22-250 Remington caliber, the barrel is constructed of stainless steel with a non-reflective matte finish. It is equipped with a black anodized Picatinny-style scope rail mounted to the top for the addition of optics. The left side of the barrel is clearly stamped with the Encore logo featuring a crosshair, followed by the manufacturer and location markings: Thompson / Center Arms, Rochester, New Hampshire, and the caliber designation 22-250 Rem. The integral barrel lug is present on the underside and bears a small circular mark containing a stylized T/C logo. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The barrel exterior is in good condition, showing a consistent matte stainless finish with some minor surface scuffs and scattered small oxidation spots, primarily concentrated near the chamber markings. The black anodized scope rail exhibits some finish wear and silvering on the sharp edges of the lugs from previous mounting. The bore is bright with clean, sharp rifling and no significant pitting or erosion visible. The barrel lug and hinge pin area show standard mechanical wear consistent with installation and use.
