I built an AR 7.62x39 pistol utilizing a Rock River LAR-47 stripped upper and stripped lower, and the LAR-47 BCG. After 250 rds the extractor broke. So I took the BCG from my full size 16" RR LAR-47 Coyote Carbine and put it in the pistol I built and the extractor on that broke after 150 rds. Although that RR LAR-47 is my favorite rifle, which is why I built the pistol modeled after it, I am not liking the BCGs from RR. So I purchased the KAK AR 7.62x39 BCG but it would not work in the pistol so I took the bolt from the KAK BCG and put it on the RR BCG and BANG!!!!!! almost at 1000rds of hard shooting and the extractor is still going strong. So I bought 2 more KAK extractors. Thinking as long as KAK does fully machined US steel parts I will buy here from now on. Great job KAK. 2A babay!
The extractor does as it should. Plain and simple. Being a fully machined piece of US steel added to the attractiveness of this extractor. Yes there are less expensive alternatives but I shoot steel cased ammo 7.62x39 and they are hard on any extractor. I say buy good quality and parts so you can shoot lots of Inexpensive wolf or Tula or red army standard or etc etc. At least I know this ones gonna allow my rifle to cycle. KAK Baby!!
Super fast shipping and extractors were at e reasonable price. Will purchase from KAK in the future.
Looked at several sights for these extractors,KAK had them in stock and at a good price. Haven't had a chance to go to the range yet thats why 4stars. KAK's shipping from placement of order to receiving was hands down the fastest I've ever experienced, WELL DONE KAK.
My old one got bent. so a friend told me about kak.had good parts and in stock.so I tried them and yes thay had it in stock.so for I put 100rd with it and works great thanks kak
This extractors are basic. The are made great, fit well and you can't go wrong with these. Glad I found them in stock. Hard too find part as well.
I have an AR style rifle chambered 7.26x39 (KAK BCG/Barrel/Gas). Initially unaware of issues with Russian steel-cased ammo, after about 800 rounds I started getting FTE's until one was so stuck in the chamber (with the extractor engaged on the casing), it took 10 minutes of pounding the charging handle with a rubber mallet to dislodge the case from the chamber. After 3 of these, I went to school on the issue. Did some homework on this issue and learned a lot about steel casings and the chamber cleaning intervals when using steel. Keeping the chamber clean seemed to solve my FTE issue, but after another 500 rounds or so, the catch on the original ejector broke off (probably from all that extreme pounding). Purchased this replacement. it was simple to install (3 minutes) and has worked flawlessly since (probably around 1000 rounds, half steel, half brass). I've since purchased the BMC enhanced ejector spring, but have not installed it yet as I've had zero ejection issues. I love this rifle, made mostly with KAK upper parts.
I have a ar pistol in 7.62x39. I run an 8 inch kak barrel and a kak bolt carrier group. I have run 200 rounds of tula steel case with no problems. I then ran 500 rounds of silver bear soft point which is nickle plated steel case. The idea behind that is to reduce stiction in the chamber much like brass vs. Steel cased ammo. at around 500 rounds my original extractor broke (sheared off). I ordered two more extractors from kak and have broken another in around 400 rounds. I keep my bolt and chamber oiled to help avoid this but it has not helped. I use an slr rifleworks adjustable gas block and set it to use the minimum amount of gas to cycle the bolt. I like my kak barrel, it has been wonderful. I dont know what material the extractors are made of and maybe a more durable material could be used?? I don't see the value when i have an almost guaranteed extra cost and down. I do understand that this is a 5.56 bolt and has been bored out to fit the 7.62 cartridge. There is less material which leads to more stress 9n those parts. I do want to make this gun 100% reliable and have talked to POF USA about getting ther E2 extraction tech cut into my kak barrel. At $160 for this service its a toss up to what will help the most and be most reliable. Nothing against kak. They have had great customer service and i love my barrel. Just my 2 cents or $36 actually.
