encore extractor

[bigted]

hey ... does anybody know how to change the extractor in the encore barrels to an ejector?

one small thing i do NOT like about my encore when shooting is having to pluck out the shell every shot under the scope. not a bad thing for target but hunting is nother storie. [smilie=s::shock: :|

Please call the Thompson/Center Customer Service Dept. at 866-730-1614 and let us know wha they say.

I do NOT believe the ejector option is available on Encore only Contenders

This article says " As for those who prefer an auto ejector, stand by. There are rumors afoot of a potential offering in the future."

which is interesting in the "stand by " thing as that was in 2011. wish they had come thru with this feature. my encore was new just last year with no word of an "either/or" feature for ejector/extractor.

so outta 120 some folks reading this ... nobody has heard of an offering that would change the extractor to an ejector? there has to be somebody smarter then me that has figured this out?

It takes a stiff coil spring to load the different extractor and the lug needs to be machined for a trigger to be activated once the barrel is opened. The early break open guns had the ejectors and the concept is the same. I believe the cost was around $150 back when T/C did it. It's not as easy as you might think.
