What Is a Firearm Extractor?
Firearm extractors are integral components that play a pivotal role in the operation of various types of repeating firearms. Found in a diverse array of designs, including bolt-action, lever-action, pump-action, semi-automatic, and fully automatic firearms, as well as revolvers, extractors serve the crucial function of removing spent cartridge cases from the firing chamber.
Notably, not all single-shot firearms feature extractors, but break-action shotguns, double rifles, and combination guns typically incorporate them. Modern extractors are often powerful enough to eject casings entirely from the firearm, combining the functions of extraction and ejection. However, some designs, such as those found in certain single-shot rifles, pistols, and break-action shotguns, require users to manually remove spent cartridges after the extractor has partially loosened them from the chamber.
In firearms employing bolt-action, lever-action, pump-action, semi-automatic, and fully automatic mechanisms, the extractor works in tandem with a separate ejector to completely remove the fired cartridge case. The extractor moves with the bolt, pulling the case rearwards out of the chamber, while the ejector exerts a frontal push, causing the case to be flicked out of a side opening known as the ejector port.
