I have a new Springfield TRP Operator .45 that has started failing to extract completely and the next round feeds up and jams everything up.
I looked at the extractor with the slide off and a loaded round will shake off easily.
I have seen some videos of bending the extractor to get a little more tension on the extractor and my question is about how much force is required to move it.
Is that part very brittle? What I don't want is to apply too much force and snap it.
I gave it a pretty good push yesterday and things don't seem much improved.
Any tips?
