Thompson Center 54 Cal. Model?

[Carl323]

Started a new topic, sorry, hoping I can post my pic. This is the T/C 54 cal I bought at the gun show yesterday. Shoots like a dream. Thanks to everyone who posted help on IDing her. I researched pics, etc. on net. Still not sure if she's the New Englander, Renegade, or some other model. I think I've ruled out the Hawken, no brasswork on stock. The previous owner lengthened the stock but I assume it didn't have the curved buttplate. Double triggers. Stamped Thompson Center Arms, Rochester New Hampshire, 54 Cal, no model given. Any help appreciated. Hope I can get this pic to post.

I don't see my photo link illuminated. Is there a way to import a pic directly into a post from my computer where the photo is in my Kodak Easyshare software? Thanks.

buddy we need to hit the range...almost hit it this morning again. the best way to post from a site like photobucket I found is to try the link first do a preview. that way you can delete the one that didn't work and try the next. this one is from my pb...use the img link. I use imgur most of the time but think I'll switch back to pb.

Hey, Dick. How many round balls did it take to bring that monster down?

Looks to me like someone cut the curved but off added wood and a pad. Measure the length of the barrel and let us know how long it is. :v

that's a t/c renegade. it came from the factory with the flat butt. someone just replaced the flat steel buttplate with a grind-to-fit recoil pad.

From the muzzle to the first "seam" just before the nipple area is 26" on the nose, 27" exactly to the "seam" just behind, that seam where on my Investarms Hawken I lift the barrel out to give it that hot soapy water in the bucket suction wash.

You cannot load pictures to the forum directly from your computer.

You need to join a photo hosting site like Photobucket. Then load your picture from your computer to that site.

Select the picture you want to show and grab the link that starts off with "[Image]" and copy it.

Come to the forum and paste the "image" stuff into your post and your picture should show up so we can see it.

Keep getting just the link to show, but that requires readers to click on it to go to the photo rather than having the pic directly embedded in the post. I'll keep trying and use preview so I don't keep clogging stuff up here! Thanks zonie and lethemgo!

Congrats on your new rifle AND figuring out how to post a pic of it! Your a better tech wiz than me That sure looks like a TC Renegade to me that someone went through the trouble of adding a hunk of wood to it. That would sure line up the sights nicely for long arm apes like me. That gun could sure make a nice shooter and hunting weapon. Congrats! Greg :thumbsup:

The amount of wood added appeared to be the amount that would be required to replace the cut off curved stock butt plate. It could have been eather way. :v

Renegade with a seriously lengthened stock!

I see 54 cal T/C Hawken stocks for sale from to time from Evilbay. Your barrel would just drop in. Just sight in and if you need a new stock, go for it.
