I had the great pleasure of shooting my new MCS-T4 Quad today for 10 rounds. Then my extractor broke. Fuck. I was going to enter a comp. tomorrow but it looks like I'll be sidelined. So Brownells is a no go for the extractor. Might you gents have any idea where I might be able to find one. I tried a call to Beretta USA, but they are off for the weekend.

Also, Just to be sure this is the issue. Would someone with a Quad take a look see at their extractor? If I look at my bolt face. My extractor has a bevel at the lower corner. The face of the bevel looks very clean so I just want to make sure that the bevel should not be there. I believe that the extractor should have a full rectangular face. I'll snap pics of mine in just s few minutes.

Thanks,

STS

Check on RFC...several have posted regarding Extraction Issues. Let us know when you get it all figured out. I would take pics of mine...but the wife just left with the camera, maybe tomorrow.

Best,

gotblika,

Thank you.

So it is not the extractor. Your photos of the extractors look identical to mine.
I removed my barrel and the extractor to see if there was anything amiss. The extractor channel on the barrel had a very slight bur immediately next to the chamber mouth that was protruding into the extractor channel. I'm hoping that it was just enough to interfere with the extraction. I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

Thanks again for the photos.

I didn't read the above link but I have read a couple threads where live rounds would not extract from the chamber. Most guys are using cleaning rods to knock the rounds out. Maybe take a wooden dowel so you can at least shoot the match.

I'm hoping that it was the small bur that I discovered. I was running two different lots of Winchester Target ammo yesterday.
My neighbor gave me a couple of boxes of Eley to shoot today. If I can get it running then I'll be GTG for the match. If not, the gents at the match have a ton more experience than I do with rimfires. So I suspect that I will be able to get a little help there too.

Quick update. The bur that was interfering with the extractor was the culprit. I arrived to late this morning to compete. But I did get shooting in and the rifle handled Winchester and Eley ammo without any issues. Thanks to all for your assistance.
