Liberty Gun Service

I’m just gonna be really honest here. I am extremely disappointed in the quality of product currently being sold by Re*****on. I am very surprised by the quality (or lack thereof) of their factory rifle barrels.
Honestly, I’m actually disappointed in just about every fi****ms manufacturer these days.
Doing what I do for a living I see a pretty good cross section of different fi****ms, and from what I’m seeing anything made before the late 90’s is of much, much better quality.

Extractor, extractor plunger and spring from a R***r Mark I. The spring was so full of dirt, grease, and old gunpowder residue I had to use a punch down the center of it. I pushed out a brown plug, but the spring itself was in good shape because it was protected by it. On most semi auto handguns the extractor is usually the dirtiest part I find. This is also the first thing I look at when someone tells me they have an ejection or feeding problem. Feeding and ejection problems are almost always caused by extraction problems.
