In all my years of shooting countless variants of AR15's, M16's, M4's, & AR10's, I can honestly say that I haven't ever seen a broken extractor. Heard of it, but haven't seen or experienced it...broken bolts, yes. I had a bad factory DMPS LR-308 extractor with an off-the-shelf LR-308, but dropped in a new one. Military small parts have to be Magnetic Particle Inspected, from what I've read, while civvy guns run the gamut of low cost, higher profit.
Where did your extractor break? Lip, body, pin hole?
