Variants

I've noticed that there seem to be two distinct versions of the Contender - one with a larger, thinner trigger guard and thicker trigger (especially up top), like

this example,

and one with a smaller, thicker trigger guard and thinner trigger, like

this example.

Does anyone know if these are distinct/named variants? I can't seem to find any concrete info, though it seems as though the latter version is the current one - I can't find any evidence of the former on T/C's website, nor any examples of the former in more recent configurations (e.g. the muzzleloader variants). Regardless, if anyone has any info on what's going on here, it'd be much appreciated. Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 01:56, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
