Breech block extractor problem

Vic,

You say above that is shoots well and is accurate, what are you tying to get running right? Sounds like it is, the breech block has failed
in a minor way, but still works.

IMO, until you get the front end "fixed", everything else is really secondary.
The bolt is damaged and needs to be replaced, it won't get any better or heal itself-JMHO.

Of course if you are happy with the appearance and possibility of greater damage you can just shoot it as it.

Before you change the spring, count the coil turns and report.
