Thompson Center Armor Alloy Barrel

I bought a brand new Contender Armor Alloy pistol back in 1985. It has the 45/410 barrel with the screw in choke. Was wondering what it is worth today.

Do you mean Armaloy finish on the barrel? I have no knowledge on the value but used the Armaloy finish on a Browning HP in the eighties which made a slick pistol and impervious to the elements. Seems to me Armaloy is in Texas.

No, it is the armor alloy finish that T/C used for just a few years in the 80s. The problem with your barrel is that it only fits armor alloy finish Contenders unless the hole for the hinge pin is reamed to accept a standard Contender hinge pin.
