triggerguard1Machined Extractor Update.
As most of you know, we are offering Machined steel and stainless extractors for the Model 70 and MRC's Model 99 actions. We have a limited amount of 4140 steel extractors left due to the limited material availability, but we will have for a long time, a large selection of stainless steel models for standard, and magnum in both the Model 99 and Model 70's.
Those that have placed orders with us previously should all have your extractors, if not already, then any day.
Here is a link to the original thread mentioning our new product.
Extractors As a side note, or personal preference I guess, the use of the stainless extractor is a bit of an advantage for a quality hunting rifle. When made out of stainless, you really have endless possibilities in regards to it's finish. It can be polished, jeweled, beadblasted, or teflon coated. This basically eliminates one more item on your rifle that you don't have to worry about rusting.
Even with a quality black oxide finish, in rough weather conditions, rust can still raise it's ugly head. Not to say that 416 stainless won't rust, but the chances are quite good that it won't in most circumstances with a minimal amount of care and maintenence.
Thanks to all who have so graciously supported us in this new product.

John RicksReceived my first batch yesterday:


The photos do not give justice, the extractors are very nicely machined. All 5 of these are 4140. I will stick one on a 458 Lott and see how it works.
With extractors machined so nicely, I cannot wait for the upcoming Williams actions!!!!

GA ShooterMatt,
Do these extractors have to be fitted or are they "drop-in" parts? Also, does the stainless extractor have the same amount of "spring" and toughness as the 4140 extractors?
Thanks,
Scott

MtnHtrI received my order the other day for two of William's magnum SS extractors. These are nicely machined units unlike the Gunrunner junk Brownells is selling. Way to go Matt!! Thanks, again!

mhoI must say, they look neat! What is the advantage of one of these extractors as opposed to the standard extractor of a M70 or an MRC, say?? Apart from being manufactured differently, what is the advantage this extractor offers? Sorry to be thick if this is common knowledge. I have got by using 3 M70 extractors until now. Have yet to have a breakage. On the other hand, we rifle nuts are always looking for that last gizmo that will definitely improve our toys.

MauserWill these extractors be available thru Brownells sometime in the future? Are you planning on making extractors for others like Mauser, CZ, etc.?
Thanks for info!

mark smithMatt are there any plans to produce your extractors for MkII Rugers. I have 6 model 70's but my main hunting rifle is a modified Ruger and it would be nice to put a top quality extractor on it.
