JDMarshall Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 What is the order of operation for removing the extractor from the bolt? I see what looks like two pins that are not in line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Sierpina Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 It's only one pin. The holes are offset. Going from memory, use a 3/32 drive pin from the top to get the pin out enough to remove the extractor. Then just push the pin back in after you change the extractor. It looks more complicated than it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FortesInFide Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 I've been trying like crazy to use a drive pin to loosen and move the extractor pin in order to replace an extractor on my Versamax. No luck. Any other tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Sierpina Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 The holes are offset, if the pin doesn't move from one side try the other. Because of the offset, you need a smaller diameter punch than the hole size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriswakey Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 It's a real pain in the arse to do. Took me ages and a lot of swearing when I did mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My local gunsmith suggested this: "push the small spring into the bolt an then wiggle the extractor out of the bolt." So he didn't mention needing to push the pin out(?).

Dan Sierpina Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Your local gunsmith does not know anything about a Versamax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You local gunsmith thinks you have an 1100 or 1187!! You need to drive the pin out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
