Good to know. I modified a standard ('06 sized) extractor to fit my 7 WSM, but would rather have had the right one.

I made an adapter to put a Lee Primer Pocket Cleaner onto a .5 HP 1725 rpm electric motor I scavenged out of...something. I also use it with my flash hole trimmer. I did the same as you - put an...

Is it listed on this site? I couldn't find the ad.

When you had it apart, did you check for debris in the bottom of the hole that might be limiting the travel of the blade? Could you run the screw in farther with the blade and spring removed than...
I have used both the Hogue monogrip and the Uncle Mike's. The Uncle Mikes are my current favorite.

I like the "make it yourself" idea. Won't that firing pin need to be hardened after he's done?
Forum: AirGuns
Thanks for the info. They definitely have the spring. The folks in Canada also have the seal, but ARH might have those at various times, just not now.

Ha! Just don't let ALL the smoke out or she won't go anywhere. :)

So what did the problem turn out to be? Hardware, software, or both?
Some virus infestations CAN be pretty problematic to remove. Prevention is the best solution, but not always possible.

I think segregating by times fired is probably more useful than by firearm used. I like to separate headstamps, but for .40 S&W and 9 mm, it doesn't seem to make much difference. My .44 Mag, .41...
Good deal! Where did you find a spring that quickly? Have you shot it again to see if the double impressions have stopped?

I found a place called Specialty Shooting Sports Outdoors (http://www.specialtyshootingsportsoutdoors.com) that had the P1 spring (listed for HW45 - same thing) and main seal also. They are in...

Thanks for the information, backroad. I hadn't heard of vortekproducts before. Seems like I tried to get a spring from Pyramid Air a few years ago and they wanted me to send the P1 in to them to be...

I have had a Beeman P1 in .20 caliber for a number of years. Great gun! It's great practice for .45 shooting.
The spring seems to be getting fatigued and I would like to replace it. Does anyone...

Update - I got a couple standard extractors from Winchester ($6.50 each + shipping) and reshaped one to work with the magnum bolt face. Now I can drop one straight into the chamber and the extractor...

Might not be your problem, but sometimes in swapping hammers, the new hammer has to be fitted so that it traps the transfer bar fully AND the nose of the hammer rests on the frame after the trigger...

Thanks for the link. Brownell's has the claw extractors, but not the push feed type. Numrich - Gun Parts has the standard push feed extractors, but not the magnum.

Wow! That's scary. The standard extractors from Winchester are $6.50 each, plus shipping. This isn't the claw type extractor of the controlled round feed bolt. The part in question is about 3/8"...

I am looking for a Winchester Model 70 Magnum extractor for the Push Feed/Controlled Round Push Feed bolt. Winchester is out of the magnums and won't be making any more. I found one place online that...
One other thought - Instead of the primers pushing the decapping rod up, could it be that the flash holes are too small? I don't care how tight a primer is - if you seated it with a handheld tool,...

Yep - we played with it and checked all kinds of things. T/C fixed it right up. What I DON'T remember is whether I sent the frame in at the same time. Might have. I no longer have the barrel, but...

I don't know what they do with the frames, especially now that the original frames have been superseded by the G2 frame and S&W has acquired T/C. Something I meant to ask Seaboltm is if his early...
