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 Feedback
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.
The most important thing to be learned from those who demand "Equality For All" is that all are not equal...

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
