I bought a Browning SA-22 (1974 model) that needed a good scrubbing out. Everything came apart as intended except the Extractor. Here's where I think maybe the breech block isn't standard issue. The Extractor, spring, and keeper are intact within the milled slot in which they belong. The retaining pin is in it's proper place, however the pin hole is NOT a through hole. What the heck is wrong with this Breech Block? Anyone else ever run into this situation? I'm thinking the Breech Block is from some clone of a SA-22, but I don't know. The gun will run OK with this Breech Block, except that the Extractor is really worn.
Again I need advice and help.

The EJ retaining pin hole should be a through-hole, but most likely one end has been so smoothed/blended-in that it's hard to discern.

It's so "blended in" it's not even there anymore. I'll give it a couple of pops with my punch, again, but I'm not to hopeful. Thanks for the suggestion.

Got the problem solved. I put the breech block on my drill press and drilled out the pin and the other side of the bolt. Got a .17 cent roll pin and she works just fine.
