waktasz Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 What you mean to say is that the brass is not extracting. Check your extrator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank34 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 There is a lot of information on how to check your extractor tension on the internet and probably on this forum. Check that first. I know because I had the same problem on my Edge and had to add tension to the extractor. I will probably upgrade to an AFTEC soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbullet Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Your extractor does not have adequate tension. A quick fix is to bend the extractor and I think if you search around there are heaps of instructions on how to acheive this. Failing that, get a gunsmith to do it for you or buy a new one, which you still need to adjust the tension anyway too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbulladdikt Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 +1 on extractor tension...probably not the wisest idea to bend it for a longterm fix, but doing so will confirm the problem for certain... quick search turned up 12-15 pages of similar issues and all recommend AFTEC at some point...
