I was bird hunting this week with a 12 ga Remington 11-87 The gun failed to extract & jammed. On examination the claw extractor in the bolt was gone & inside the bolt cut-out all that was there was a small extended spring. I found the replacement parts on Numrich's. Looks like the assembly consists of the extractor, plunger & spring. The installation looks like the spring & plunger are compressed & then the extractor just snaps in place. Is this correct? Is there a trick to this? Am I missing something here?
Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated.
TIA...
