VOLQUARTSEN EXACT EDGE EXTRACTOR

Denne er mye mer polert enn original, skarpere i kantene og gir meg hvertfall mye bedre inntrykk av kvalitet.
Den originale er full av små grader og sår, som får meg til å miste litt tillit.

Denne skal også være av sterkere stål og ha lenger levetid i følge produsenten. Kun brukt noen uker så vanskelig å si noe om levetiden.
Synes også den beveger seg smidigere i slutstykket.
Føler hvertfall at den er av betydelig bedre kvalitet enn original, og da stoler jeg mer på den :)

My 10/22 would FTE at least once per mag. Read all the good previous reviews. Ordered additional for my MKIII. Compared the extractor lip of the VQ to the factory extractor on both guns. Increase in quality, purchase on rim and strength of spring was more than quite obvious. Note: The provided spring is shorter than factory but STRONGER. "NO MORE FTE's !"

I had my doubts about this VQ Extractor putting an end to the FTE's all too frequently in our 10/22 Takedown. We purchased the rifle in early March and we've encountered this problem at least once at almost every single session at the range since then. (Other than this frustrating characteristic, the rifle has become an inanimate member of the family; we do like it.)



Cleaning helped at times, but was apparently not THE solution. So, we got pretty good at clearing jams.



However, as the factory extractor showed more and more wear-and-tear, including the claw rounding off. (Image attached, in case it is happening to you.) I knew I'd have to do something. Then, during a session in early October, I not only had a spike in FTE's, I twice had chambered rounds that would not extract when I manually racked the bolt; it was time to do something.



I initially planned to just buy a couple factory extractors but, having read so much good about the VQ extractor, I bought one of each. Last weekend, I replaced the original "rounder" with the VQ. Yesterday, I was able to test it. IT'S A MIRACLE! Okay, it was one session, but I sent 210rds of mixed makes & types of ammo, including some that were physically/mechanically "questionable", and I had 0, zero, nil, nada, FTE's.



Very, very cool.

Seriously perfect. I would have anywhere from 1-4 FTE's per 10 clip before. I went shooting, and put 300 rounds of varying brands through it, and had 0 FTE's. If there was only one mod I could do to a 10/22, it would be this.



The spring that came with the extractor was too short though, so I just used the stock one.

I installed the extractor in a Mk2. It took about 20 minutes from start to finish. Then I took the gun to the range and had ZERO FTE's. Before I was having 3 or more FTE per magazine. Extremely satisfied with the VQ Extractor.

This extractor is very quality made. It is easy to see if you lay it next to the stock unit there is no comparison. They are similar but there is a big difference, anyway it fixed my 10/22 made it better than new went from 3 or more jams/stovepipes per 10 clip to zero jams due to faulty extractor hold. Also a big thank you to Brownell's for quick proccess and shipping, I got it in four days from time ordered. Thanks to Volquartsen for a quality made product.

I didn't get this to improve my 10/22, i bought it because my old extractor flew out of my rifle during a plinking spree. I just assumed that Ruger 1022's just failed to eject periodically due to ammo or low grade systems or that I ran about 5,000 rounds through it over 20 some years with only barrel cleaning and wiping lubrication only of the visible assembled carriage system. What a difference. This thing grabs the rim firmly and squarely and under close examination, the precise and sharp, greater than 90 degree tooth plants it's pointed tooth perfectly and aggressively into the base of the chambered round's rim and pulls it cleanly out like a wolf ripping flesh. The Volquartsen spring, although shorter has far more force than the original spring creating a more sure and precise "bite". Closing the bolt slowly, you can hear the extractor snapping in place. Such a small part but what a major improvement. Not a single failure yet. I'm glad my original piece broke so, with the help of YouTube, I could fully disassemble the rifle and do a full de-grease and re-lube with Slip2000 and some TW25b weapon grease then upgrade a small but very important and quality part to revive my enjoyment of this classic piece that will soon belong to my son. Now I brought new life into a favorite toy!

A lot sharper and more surface area over the Factory Ruger extractor. More consistent ejection and jams are now non existent.

This was easy to install and after testing it I have yet to have another failure to extract.

It seems like the newer Ruger 10/22 extractors are made from soft metal and the edges dull quickly. After 2000 rounds or so, jams can become problematic--even with ammo that was jam-free when the rifle was new. The Exact Edge Extractor is the fix!

These extractors work GERAT in my Ruger Mk II and Mk III 22 autos. Use the extractor only - must use the original factory extractor spring. Work so well that I have replaced the extractors in all six of my pistols. Any extraction problem will just disappear.
