I think the Encore is available in more calibers. You can also make it a rifle or a blackpowder muzzle loader.

So no other thoughts on a single shot pistol?

I still think your best bet is the T/C Encore. It is very versatile.

MOA pistols. from what i've read (when i was considering a single shot pistol) they are one of the best things going.

I have a T/C Contender and an XP-100. I like the Contender's ability to change barrels/calibers. Mine has a .22 barrel and a .357 barrel. The XP is chambered in 7mmBR and is SWEEEET.
T/C is coming out with an upgraded Contender frame. The only reason I can see for going with an Encore is if you want to shoot really high-powered loads (.308 and up.) As far as I'm concerned, if the Contender frame isn't strong enough to handle it, whatever it is is too much for a handgun - at least of the design of the Contender. (Worst kicker I ever shot was a .44 Mag in a Contender. Something about the grip shape makes that thing STING when I shoot it.) I want to get a carbine stock and barrel in a nice flat-shooting caliber for mine. |

Look for a Contender - they have good after market support, and they have a very good adjustable trigger.
The G2 Contender has been promised to the market forever - it will have a "California" trigger, nonadjustable and designed to satisfy California's AD law. The Encore also has a non-adjustable trigger, and I have never turned up any gunsmiths that are doing much trigger work on them (although it has been 6 months or so since I looked). |

Remington has one that seems to be in production every few years. It may not be in thie year's catalog, maybe next years, that kind of thing.
Thompson seems to be the main name in this area. I see plenty of those and have seen few Lone Eagles. CDNN was selling of a pile of Lone Eagles a year ago. |
