I haven't checked the Sturgess book yet, but I think after this exchange I'm clearer on the changes that happened with this kit. My main misconception was that the pre-WWII kits needed the extractor swapped out. But the place in the box is solely for the removed original extractor. The 5-shot mags in the pics didn't look particularly "horny" compared to the ones I have, which have a pronounced difference in extra height on the right rear horn. There is proof in Ed's pics that the parts you have in your kit are indeed all there.

There was an SE 08/2--well, much of one anyway--on eBay, ended yesterday. It needed a lot of parts to be complete, and I am amazed that in the face of all the effort and research and patience necessary to complete the kit it went for over $200. Sarco has some of what was needed--pin and bushing for the rear, buffer bolt, its retainer and spring, f.p. and recoil springs-- but the extractor, stationary rear block, and firing pin will be a real bear to come up with.
