My contender has a trigger pull over 4 lbs. What would you recommend?

If it is a G2, it is similar to the Encore. The original Contenders have easy to work on triggers. There are two different trigger groups for the old contenders, center pin and front pin. You can clip some of the coil spring to reduce the weight (1/4 turn at a time). Trapper gun parts also makes replacement springs although I haven't used them. You can get the kit from Natchez for around 5 or 6 $$.
