Well, ....... Since you're already doing business with Wolff Gunsprings I suggest that you dump the standard Glock 3rd/4th gen. recoil spring assembly, and get yourself one of Wolff's all steel dual guide rod assemblies for 3rd. gen. G-27 pistols with 16#, standard weight, recoil springs.  (Why?  Because I have no idea how much you've used this Glock, or what kind of shape the frame is in?  I, also, know from past experience that a stiffer recoil rod(s) will smooth out frame vibration and help the slide to cycle better.)  

There is no such thing as an, 'extractor spring' on a Glock.  What you should have replaced is the SPRING LOADED BEARING, and the EXTRACTOR-DEPRESSOR PLUNGER SPRING.  

Another spring that should always be replaced in any well used pistol, at least, every 24 to 36 months is the SLIDE LOCK SPRING.  (It's, also, a good idea to keep one or two extras on-hand because anytime this spring fails your Glock is going to be completely down; and, hopefully, your slide assembly will escape damage when it falls off the pistol.  

You're, probably, getting light primer strikes because the slide isn't fully closing - A very dangerous condition!  If you've done everything else right then it's got to be the new 4th gen. recoil spring in a 3rd gen. gun.  Before you go to the range, fully load all of your magazines and leave them that way for a few days.  

By the way, you don't have any rail or frame cracks in that Glock; do you?  The only other thing I'm wondering is what kind of condition your lock block is in?  Do you have any significant slide peening?
