Extractor oring

[kwando]

Do you run one? I have never needed to run one, but was talking to family about this issue tonight and thought I'd ask and start a poll.

My bolt came with one installed so I never felt the need to remove it.

Usually what's called the "enhanced extractor" or "extractor upgrade". Some folks swear by it, others swear at it. I have only seen one cause an issue, it shredded and jammed the bolt in the carrier. I attribute that to a lack of maintenance.

I could go either way. I usually run them but the first AR I ever had ran thousands of trouble free rounds without one.

I have shot ar-15 for 40 years and never used one.

All mine came with the o-ring.

They all get the upgraded extractor spring whether they need it or not. It is too cheap of a part to worry about it. Extraction is important to me [Wink]
