The rimfire "striker" on my G1 contender is gone. The hammer has the selector on top (not the slider). This allows the main shaft of the striker to lift up when fired or dry fired, and the least is annoying.
Can I repair this? If so, what parts do I need?

In a brief email with a contender gunsmith, I was told it cannot be repaired, and I should just order a new hammer (he has some used one for sale). I am going to call on Monday and actually speak to him about it, because I need to order so other springs, etc to try and fix some other issues I am having (and because no springs have been replaced ever, and the gun has not been disassembled in the 25 years I have owned it and cleaned).

Might try and post pics later.
