1903 Springfield extractor

[Orroe]

Either will work on any 1903 or 1903A3 bolts. the only difference is the 1903 extractors have a hole drill in it for gas escape from the receiver/chamber in case of rupture case. You will only need a extractor with a hole if your rifle only have the gas escape hole on the right side.

Owen,

Thanks for the help and clearing that up for me. So I'm guessing that if a early 1903 were used in WWII then a broken extractor with hold would have been replace with one without a hole?
