Ithaca NID extractor issue.

Joe,

nothing really jumps out to me from your pictures, on the third picture where the extractor seems to be fully retracted, it does appear that it could be tweaked upward, it look like there might be some room at the top.
Also, if you remove the barrels and then manually pull the extractor out, does it have any downward movement like your guide pin may be bent?
Meaning that the further the ectractor extends, it keeps dropping lower away from the shell?
There is a set screw that retains the extractor guide rod/pin from fully coming out, this screw can be backed off to allow the extractor to be removed, and then you could check for straigtness of the rod/pin.

yeah, I pulled it out it looks very straight. It moved freely with finger, etc.

If any thing, there is a bit of side-to-side movement once it's out. It's like the shell sticks or something, but once the extractor was out, very little pressure to remove it, and it fit in other tube just fine too. I am gonna try the lighter RSt's in it. Although, this gun should be fine with 1165 1oz loads imho.

Not sure what else it may be Joe,

Maybe Brian will see something I'm missing? I personally have never had any issues with NID extractors, but never say never.

BTW, this is the gun... Sort of fond of it. Brian Board restored the wood with Timberluxe, and Breck Gorman the barrels.

No longer 100% original, but I think she's 100% beautiful....

Brian asked me to take these pics of it for his FB page after I got it back.
