With a brush
soaked in cleaner, gently remove all soot from the part of the extractor which grasps the
rim of the cartridge case. When using a 1911 Colt 45 pistol, never drop a round into
the chamber by hand and then drop the slide as the extractor may be damaged or bent. The
extractor is designed for the case to slide up and into it during loading. Newer guns use
additional springs to tension the extractor against the cartridge case. Wipe dry, then
apply good quality gun oil and wipe again. Remember that the extractor on the 1911 is the
most critical part prone to problems and must be carefully cleaned and cared for to achive
proper reliablity.
