I purchased a frame from them and had a trigger job done. I love it probably between 2 and 3 lbs pull, no creep. I highly reccomend them.

 I had a member, (48473 is his handle), do a trigger job on my Encore and it came out GREAT!  Around 2lbs and crisp.  He has a gunsmithy business in Pa., I give him the nod of approval.

If you are at all mechanically inclined chec out the Mike Bellum web page. He sells the springs and you can do the job yourself. I have done acouple and the first one gave me some problems. Mainly because I tried to follow his instructios to a T. Not a good idea. There is no need to completely dissamble the whole action, just take it down to where you remove the spring, then put it back together from there. Mike was an armor and thinks you have to tear everything clear down and totally rebuild it.

My dealings w/ EABCO were good.  Several years ago though.  I got a trigger job and french grey finish.  Work was done well.

I just got my Encore frame back from Jim Henry last week. Fantastic work and you can't beat his price. 2.5lbs, no creep.

+1.  This is an easy trigger job that anyone with any mechanical ability can do themselves.  Breaks like glass at 3lbs.

+2.  I got a 3lb trigger for a friend's Encore.  It was easy to install and is very clean and crisp.
It's all a hot mess...........

I had mine done at Shots gunsmithing, and it is perfect.  Breaks at just under 2 lbs, no creep, and heavy hammer spring included.  I think shipping and everything was around $90.  Highly recommended, just google shots gunsmith.

You can get a trapper spring kit from Natchez Shooting Supplies.
