Extractor problem?

[kevinqjhps]

I have a problem that I THINK??? is related to the extractor. After firing 12-15 rounds I get a fired case hung half way up in the barrel with a new round trying to feed from the mag. This obviously locks things up.

The only way to free things up it to turn over, press the mag release and with a padded screwdriver pry the mag out. This releases the mag with remaining rounds, and leaves the fired case in the chamber. 

This seems to only happen after 2-3 mags if this helps.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Did this occur with the same magazine or different magazines?

BINGO!!!! Great minds think alike. I was thinking about this last night. I usually bring 4-6 mags along and it doesn't happen till the second or third mag. Monday, range day, I will start marking the mags. Thanks.


p.s. I field stripped it, cleaned it well, and replaced the recoil spring.

Also, make sure you let it cool between magazines.

That may the problem showing up on the second or third mag.

That is a distinct possibility; give it at least two to three minutes between mags. As someone here wisely observed a cool gun is usually the one used in self defense.

Tracker hit it first.    The reason it took so long to get back on this is because I usually bring 6-7 mags and usually two different R9's. It would jam in ONE gun  on ONE mag and only then some of the time.

Thanks again Tracker.

I have moved the 'bad' mag to my junk gun bag and it LOOKS like all is well.

Great to hear the good news on a simple solution, Kevin; happy to be of assistance.

Williams will replace the defective mag with a new one.
