S&W M&P 15-22 EXACT EDGE EXTRACTOR

S&W M&P 15-22 EXACT EDGE EXTRACTOR Reviews & Ratings

Exact Edge Extractor for the Smith and Wesson M&P 15-22. The replacement extractor was manufactured through a EDM process to provide exact tolerances. The geometry has been changed to provide positive ejection every time. One geometry change was moving the hook .015" closer to the rim and changing the angle so that it grabs the spent casing with much more precision and control. The extractor is A2 Tool Steel and hardened to Rc 58-60 so this extractor will not wear out or round over after years of use.

May not work in the older rifles
Does aid in extraction but had a lot of light strikes because this new part was keeping the bolt from fully closing. Part was installed on a first generation rifle and S&W may have changed the shape of the extractor cut. It'll probably work fine if you took the time to fit it.
