Thanks for this. No one else seemed to go into breaking apart the extractor. My extractor spring snapped in half on me.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Your welcome! Hopefully you got that extractor springs back in there with out to much trouble. They can be tricky.

[@Squib1911]

Physically and visually verify that the chamber is empty. Good demonstration.
I never knew how to take the bolt down this far. Thanx for the video.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks and you're welcome. It is a bit of tricky bolt to take down all the way

[@jeffshootsstuff]

Nice job as always.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks!

Аххренеть!!!
Трёхлинейка намного проще разбирается.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Yes, it is far simpler than this, for sure!

[@smokerjim]

TF 4-04A? Surely it should have been TF 3-03A?

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Haha, man, I should have put more thought into that! Missed opportunity! 😁

[@smokerjim]

@@HistoryinFirearms never mind fella, keep the nomenclature as it is for the series and try to slip it in to another firearm/calibre series and see if anyone notices 😁
