M1903 extractor with Hatcher hole

[Snowman1510]

I bought a M1903 bolt from Dupage Trading Co. to replace the 03-A3 bolt in my M1903 because it wasn't correct and would stick in the receiver raceway when being manipulated. I got the bolt in the mail and cleaned off the cosmo and came to a cross road. The original bolt extractor has been drilled for the gas escape hole but the new bolt extractor does not. In your opinion should I switch the two extractors or should I let sleeping dogs lie.

Correction: Gas escape hole not Hatcher hole.
