[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 838745, member: 229"] I can't imagine that this would be an issue only with dropping the slide with a round in the chamber - wouldn't a gunked Firing pin channel cause the same issue either way? I appreciate all the feedback - I knew there was a reason I didn't do it, I just didn't know what it was. I don't guess I fully grasp the physics of how a spring-loaded piece of hardened steel (the extractor) can be stressed or even broken by going around the rim of a brass shell - especially since the contour of most extractors are designed at an angle to travel over the lip of a semi-auto shell, but I also understand that I don't know much about this area, so I'm willing to heed the advice whether I understand it or not. Anyone want to elaborate on how this is that stressful to an extractor, or am I over-simplifying it? [/QUOTE]
