[ARCHIVED THREAD] - AR 7.62 extractor needed

Posted: 9/8/2015 2:42:19 PM EDT

Got my 7.62 AR built last week, and took it out shooting this weekend. Worked well, up until I got a stuck case (200+ rounds of dirty Tula) and ended up breaking the lip off the extractor. I had seen before a few multi-year old posts about someone that had a better-built extractor for this, but I'm unable to find anything for sale online other than what looks like stock replacement parts.
Place I got the BCG from will warranty it, replacing the whole BCG, but I'd rather just pay fast shipping from someone on the part I need and be shooting this weekend.

Anyone know where to get a good quality ectractor?

Buy a replacement tp your particular bolt from Armalite or DPMS as the case may be.

Stop shooting crap ammo and this problem will probably disappear.

Are we talking 7.62x39 here? That's very common on 7.62x39 because most companies use a .124" bolt face depth, which doesn't leave much room for any extractor lip mass.

I had one breakage when I first bought my x39 upper. I replaced my extractor with a regular 556 extractor and haven't had any issues since. They are cheaper and easier to find also. Just FYI
Good luck
