I just read the thread about loading a round into the chamber from the magazine and NOT just dropping one in and then inserting the magazine. I have been a naughty boy and have been loading my +1 round into the chamber by hand. I've maybe done it 10-20 times tops. Gun still functions flawlessly. Do I need to have the gun looked at or replace the extractor? Thank God for this forum to smack dudes like me upside the head when we do stupid things. Any input would be gladdly accepted. Thanks!

If the gun is still functioning good then I wouldn't worry about it. Maybe have a smith take a look at your extractor and make sure its not damaged if you feel its necessary.

If you've only done it 10-20 times, your gun functions perfectly, and your extractor claw appears undamaged, I think you are in good shape. I bet no damage has been done.

Removed the extractor and look at it make sure it still has the proper edge on it.

Uhm... I must be missing something, I drop the +1 round in by hand, no idea there was anything wrong with this?



Someone point me to the link?

This is where I read the info about chambering vs. magazine loading.

This.



Just check it, it's most likely just fine.
