Contender Hammer Dropping w/out trigger pull?
« on: November 15, 2003, 12:19:05 PM »
I have the older model Contender and when I cock the hammer to fire it, the hammer consistantly falls before I squeeze the trigger.  What is causing this problem?  Is there a fix?  What is the fix?

Thanks in advance I'll post this in the gunsmithing forum also.

My older contender was doing the same thing and then the hammer spring broke I have to get a new spring now. I hope that is the problem.

You may have the trigger adjusted to be too sensitive.
