Yes!!!
I did to mine...Easy! Trigger spring kit with a pliers to help,and on-line printable directions with pictures. Choices of spring weights. I did 3 of mine.(2 encore and a g2) They also explain how to do more than just change springs but I was happy with that change alone.

I did mine also and it is not hard at all.  Do a search on ebay for "encore spring" and it will get you the info you need.


Good luck!

I am FAR from being a gunsmith and completed mine with the printed instructions in about 15 minutes!  I was almost let down that it wasn't harder to put in.  I think mine went from 4.5lbs to about 2!

:D Are ya'll ordering these kits from the maker or ebay.  Seems the manufacturer is costlier than ebay even with shipping.  I need to get 3 spring kits but have no idea what spring number to order.  Seems 1 is probably what comes in the encore and 7 is the lightest.  Don't want the heaviest or the lightest so 4 is in the middle.  Help!!

Same person sells them on ebay, I just didn't want to mention the name.

I ordered a #3 and a #2.  I have the #3 in right now and it feels good to me...don't know the poundage I got as I don't have a scale but like I said it feels good to me.

Good luck.

It is the same product but not the same person.  Manufacturer is in Oregon and the ebay guy is in Nevada.  Seems Nevada is also cheaper on a 1 spring deal than Oregon.  Even with shipping.   Which one did ya'll use.  jiminpa let us know how that #4 does in yours.

Sorry Grumps...last time I looked on ebay it was a different person selling them that is why I said it was the same person.  Did you follow that one?!?!?   :-D

The place I got mine was in Grants Pass, OR.(which is the person that is listed in jiminpa's post, wrong web address though)  Not the same as what is currently on ebay, but if it is cheaper then try it out.  They may all be getting them from the same supplier anyways.

Good luck and let us know how you make out.
