Major problem at a bad time....
« on: November 11, 2007, 04:14:20 PM »
Shooting my Contender to check the sight in for deer season next weekend.  The hammer spring or something broke and the firing pin is not working right.

Now the title of my post is misleading.  Luckily I have 4 other frames so all is not lost.  I knew there was some reason I kept buying frames whenever I found a deal.

If its a Contender (not a G2) I have  hammer springs and instructions on how to replace it.
