manual shold have diagram, the triger spring is a little tricky unless you have a capture pin( I made one it's easy). It pushes out when you push the original in.

if you visit the bellm site he offers instructions on how do a trigger job and install one of his lighter springs, The instructions are free . You can also just rebend the original spring and lighten the trigger pull .
I installed bellms #4 spring and ended up with a 1 3/4 pound trigger .

Guess I will jump on the bandwagon here also. I took the hammer spring out of my Encore the other week and did not pay attention to which way it went. Got the manual out to look and to my surprise, no exploded view. Could not believe it. Anyway, I would appreciate a copy.

Thanks a bunch.

You know, the funny thing is about Bellm and his springs, he tells you not to mess with that little spring and plunger on the trigger. Instead, lightening the sear spring which can possibly cause disconnect problems if it's too light of a spring. Well that little coil spring in the trigger work's to equalize release pressure. I've found that putting a slightly stiffer spring in there reduces trigger pull also by adding additional pressure to the trigger instead of reducing pressure on the sear. Ofcourse you can only stiffen this spring so much before you limit effective travel, but if you have
the right coil spring stock available it's an alternative that doesn't require removing anything more than the trigger guard and trigger and also reduces the possibility of encountering problems with the safety disconnect engaging properly.
I'm not trying to discourage Bellm's springs here, just offering an alternative.
