Ruger MKII Extractor Removal and Installation Instructions

Lift up the recoil spring and guide rod up from the bolt (Fig. 1)

(Fig. 1)

You must move the firing pin retention pin to the left (or completely remove it). This is to allow the
plunger that holds the extractor to be pulled back far enough to remove the extractor. (Fig. 2)

(Fig. 2)
Using a small screw driver (I've heard a dental pick works well also) pull the plunger back away from
the extractor. With the pin removed it will be able to travel back far enough to allow the extractor to be
removed. If you hold the plunger back and turn the bolt the extractor will fall out. (Fig. 3,4,5)

(Fig. 3) (Fig. 4) (Fig. 5)

Here you can see the orientation of the firing pin, firing pin retention pin, extractor and the plunger that
holds it in (how they would be together in the bolt). (Fig. 6,7,8)

(Fig. 6) (Fig. 7) (Fig. 8)


To install the extractor simply insert the spring and plunger into the bolt from the front with the flat
portion of the plunger facing inside. Then lay the extractor in the groove and use it to push the plunger
back. While pushing back apply pressure to push the extractor into the bolt, and when the plunger gets
far enough back, the extractor will fall into the bolt, and the plunger will spring forward to lock it in.
(Fig. 9, 10)

(Fig. 9) (Fig. 10)

Insure the firing pin retention pin is reinstalled into the bolt, and place the recoil spring and guide rod
assembly back in the bolt. (Fig. 11)
