S/42 fire test, jammed b'z of 115 ammo

I don't think the luger in that slow motion is working correctly!

The EXTRACTOR pulls the cartridge from the chamber, it is the piece top center of the bolt.

It is the EJECTOR that strikes the bottom of the cartridge and forces it up and out of the action.

In that picture it does not look like the extractor is holding the shell long enough for the ejector to strike it, but that it just "finds" its way up and out from the residual gas in the chamber/bbl.

JMHO.
