[QUOTE="ENCORE, post: 594751, member: 33046"] Yes, it is something that T/C should handle but, one has to remember that its also a production firearm and with the case of trigger pull, they may consider it a liability going any lighter. As for the case of the hinge pin, it can also be an issue with the CVA Apex, now that more of them are in the hands of shooters. Fortunately for the shooter, customizing an Encore or Pro Hunter isn't costly and every shooter that I know of that's made these changes, all report that it [U]feels like a completely different rifle[/U]. These changes can make a HUGE difference in the way it shoots and groups. [LIST] [*]Trigger Spring........................ $7.95 [*]Hinge Pins............................. $9.95 [*]Locking Bolt Spring................ $2.95 [*]HD Firing Pin Spring............... $2.95 [*]44# Hammer Spring.............. $7.95 [*]..............................................[B]$31.05 plus shipping[/B]. [/LIST] I've made these changes to all of the Encores and the Pro Hunter and the change is a remarkable difference. We just did one for the Commander of the U.S. Coast Guard, Alpena Station (NE MI, Lake Huron) and he could not be any happier! He went from 4" groups down to instant 3/4" groups. In the case of the trigger spring, be sure to download the free instructions from Mike's web page and take note of the sear instructions. It can be difficult the first time but, its something that should be learned by all Encore platform shooters. The ability to disassemble the frame and clean it, should be completed by all shooters. Especially those that may have excessive head space and a lot of blow back, which by the way can also be fixed, by installing a shim behind the breech. Shims are also made and sold by Bellmtc. Just a side note..... My bet is each and every rifle that Shockey receives, is already customized by the T/C Custom Shop and, as a sponsor its a free rifle. Good luck with your rifle and good shooting.... [/QUOTE]
