I have a Bt 99 that extracts. Does not eject.
No problem. I like it the way it is

My question is “is the extraction mechanism spring operated” or is it a mechanical action that occurs without a spring? Can I increase the amount of travel of the extractor or is it a fixed distance?

Thanks in advance

Your BT99 probably has the ejector trip rod removed. This still allows the extractor to lift the shell but not that much. The extraction mechanism is spring operated but it is tripped by the trip rod when you open the gun. I have read where the ejector springs can be replaced with a 1911 firing pin return spring but I have no way of verifying that. Lots of info online about BT99 ejectors. Google is your friend.
 
Thanks to both of you but that’s not the issue
The issue is apparently very soft extraction namely not lifting the shell very far from the chamber
