after a Kb close call from a blown range pick up brass which chipped my mag lip a little (i had a thread on this), i didn't notice anything wrong with the pistol. i went on to finish (and win!) the match without a hiccup from the pistol. i shot 60 rounds for practice days after the match and didn't notice anything wrong with the extraction. then, a while ago while staring at and admiring the gun, i saw something i didn't remember seeing before. this:
i can't easily order parts from my location. i'm not sure if the blown brass incident caused this because based on how the chamber hood is imrpessed on the brass the blown base portion of the brass seems to be @ 7:00 postion when viewed from behind the chamber looking down-barrel. I also couldn't think though of how else this might have happened. My question is: how bad do i need replacement extractor? the pistol is still perfectly reliable now... could i leave it as is? or could i remove it and straiten it up? please help...
