New RIA - extractor removal problem
I have a new RIA (tactical if that matters) and can't seem to get the extractor out in what I would call an easy fashion. The firing pin plate, pin and spring all come apart no problem. The extractor itself wiggles just a bit (maybe 1/8" or less?) rearwards but I just can't seem to get it out of the channel. I tried pushing, pulling, tugging and all sorts of other non-destructive ways to get it out -- am I missing something here, is there something else I need to do to get this puppy out of the frame to clean? Is there some sort of spring to depress?
50 rounds fresh out of the case (with all that factory packing gunk on/in it) I had 2 FTF and 2 failures to return to battery - she needed a complete strip & lube I think, mags and all.
