You can buy just the Encore frame (nobarrel) for about $350w/ either a pistol grip and forearm or w/ a rifle stock and forearm and then buy whatever barrel(s) ($250-300) you'd like for it.

Or you could just order the gun you want in whatever caliber, ss or blue, and choice of stock.. be it walnut, pepper laminate, brown laminate, synthetic, camo synthetic.. all of which are available in thumbhole also.

I see you're in PA... you might check w/ your local Gander Mtn... they normally keep a pretty good stock of them and if they don't have what you want they can order it in foryou. I work at the Gander here inIndy.
