Getting failure to extract on my fathers 1911. It's a mutt built from mostly surplus parts by a friend of his years ago.
We pulled the extractor out of my Springfield ran like a top for the 3 mags we ran. So I'm thinking extractor tension or worn extractor.
Next I had it unloaded hammer back and safety on. I was able to get the hammer to fall. So another issue to address.
Looking for a little guidance here or looking for a 1911 mechanic to take a look at it.
