Can the springs be changed to lighten up the trigger pull ?
Thanks in advance :wink:

I don't have a lcr, but I bet they can be changed; however, be careful because the rim fires need a harder hit to ignite than does center fire so you cannot lighten it very much before its too much.

You can order replacement springs from someone, then lay the factory spring aside, cut one spiral off one replacement spring and try it.
Keep up with how many spirals you remove and if you go to far, then adjust the no. cut off on another spring and be happy.

I have both a 22LR and a 22 Magnum LCR. The rimfires always require stiffer mainspring to insure ignition. That said my 22 Magnum LCR has a much lighter trigger than my 22 LR version. I believe Wolff has a spring set for the LCR. If you change the spring just be sure to testfire your 22 Magnum so you don't experience any light strikes.
