Thompson Center Encore Barrel Features The Thompson Center Encore barrel is a factory-produced 12 gauge shotgun barrel designed exclusively for Encore frames letting owners add a dedicated turkey configuration to a system they already own rather than buying a whole new gun. The 24 inch length is well suited to turkey hunting offering enough sight radius for precise aiming while staying maneuverable in a blind or ground setup. The barrel installs with no gunsmithing required simply removing the forend and tapping out the barrel-to-frame hinge pin to swap configurations in the field. This modularity is the core benefit of the Encore platform letting one frame serve multiple hunting or shooting roles. A blued steel finish gives the barrel a classic durable appearance while resisting the corrosion that comes with repeated field use. The fiber optic front sight gathers ambient light for a bright fast sight picture an important advantage when tracking a gobbler s head movement at close range. The barrel accepts interchangeable choke tubes and ships with a turkey choke installed delivering the tight pattern density needed for ethical effective shots at typical turkey hunting distances. Compatible only with Encore frames and not Contender or G2 Contender models this barrel is a straightforward factory-correct way to expand an existing Encore s versatility for sale at GrabAGun.
