I'm not sure, but I think that a local gun shop here has a used one. Try calling Pete's Gun Shop at 413-743-0780. They are great to deal with and have good prices.

I called Pete's gun shop but they must have sold the 41 mag barrel. He did have a 44 mag. He said that Contender barrels sell quickly. He did take my name and phone # to get back with me if one comes in. So right now I am still looking.
44marty--thanks for the lead, sure appreciate it. Don

No problem, Don. I've seen just a few on the AuctionArms website over the past year also. Another thing I like about dealing through Pete's is that the barrel will be pre-inspected and Tom will be able to advise you of its condition.
Cabelas store in Hartford, CT is another place where I've seen a number of used Contenders, but I'm not sure about barrels.
