I've got a contender. Inherited it from my father, actually. It's got .22 and 357 barrels. Its definitely a niche handgun, but still fun to shoot. The time it takes to reload and cock the pistol really makes you focus on the fundamentals of good marksmanship, and its pretty relaxing too, especially with lighter loads.
The TC Contender isn't for everyone, but they're great guns. I know a few folks who hunt deer with them, with 12-14" barrels chambered in 30-30 winchester.
