If you are talking about sending a pre easy-open frame back to the factory to have it updated to open easy. I had one done 2 years ago and likes it just fine.
I just sent mine in to have the conversion done so I can use the newer barrels. Mine is a 1970 model Contender and won't work with 1981 or newer barrels.
I sent mine to them when I had a problem with a barrel. I asked them if there was anything they could do to make it make it easier to open. It came back with the conversion and it was totally reblued. The letter said they reblued it so that the frame would match the new parts. I came out smelling like a rose.

I am having trouble with my frame to, it's scratching barrel's, bad, it's very tight on each side, worse with some than others Guess I'll send it to TC to have a make over Thanks for the input Nick
