[QUOTE="Boehlertaught, post: 3428535, member: 14520"] Having problems sucks. The video guy has a lot of information but his explanation of the way the extractor attaches to the case by snapping over the end of the case by use of the bevel on the cases bottom edge is completely wrong. The 1911 is a controlled feed firearm. Meaning that the breachface\extractor takes control of and holds the case as it enters the barrel's chamber. The extrctor is. Ot designed to snap over the cases rim. I agree that a change to the recoil spring could be the problem as a stronger spring may not allow the slide to retract enough for proper extraction. But if you disassembled your pistol and kept the parts that didn't get blued you know what you have. If the gunsmith did the disassembly he may not have put your spring back into your gun. Same goes for the extrctor. It may not be your original. Make sure the extrctor is not damaged and make sure it is not clocked in the frame. [/QUOTE]
