REMINGTON 870/1100 EXACT EDGE EXTRACTOR Reviews & Ratings

The Exact Edge Extractor is manufactured through an EDM process to produce exacting tolerances. The new extractor will not lose its edge under impact. The extractor features a very precise hook point. It is hardened to a RC 58-60 to withstand years of use and still maintain its edge. We are able to hold the tolerances to +/-.0001" by utilizing the EDM manufacturing process. Replaces Remington part #16176 and fits 870, 12, 20 and 1100, 12, 20.

SPECS: For Remington 870 and 1100 models.

Remington 870 extractor

I installed the volquartson exact edge in a never fired Remington 870 because the factory one was chipped from aluminum snap caps. The first two boxes of shells were reluctant to come out of the chamber to say the least and a few that were very hard got stuck to the extractor from the force it took to pull them. This thing is great as far as I'm concerned. This is the fist upgrade in any future shotguns I get for sure.

No brainier upgrade

This part is so easy to install that if a person can't do it they probably shouldn't work on firearms at all. The old school upgrade was to install a Police extractor. These days, skip that and go straight to this. This has the benefits of what used to be a modified Police extractor right out of the packaging. For the price the tinker time saved makes it a good value overall. It's most likely a once in a lifetime purchase for most users--the cost is nothing to install it and be done. While you're there, installing a Wolff firing spring is a simple and cheap upgrade too. Clean and lube the bolt, reinstall and forget about it for another 20 years.
