VQ extractor for remington 597 ?

[jdemora]

Hey guys I am looking for some info on the VQ extractor for the 597 22lr. Has anyone tried one and know where I can get one in Ontario? I would buy one used also if anyone has one they want rid of. I am having the standard issues with my 597 and think this may help
Thanks

It sure will help, I was having the standard jamming/stove pipe issues with mine and I got the extractor and not one FTF since, I really like this gun now.
I got mine here http://www.hawktecharms.com/remington/597.htm#Volquartsen%20597%20Products no problems, free shipping to Canada, comes marked as "machined parts".
Check out the "VQ exact-edge install" article here on rimfirecentral - http://www.rimfirecentral.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=21 and make sure you do it in a plastic bag so you dont loose the extractor plunger or spring like I did .

Good luck, made a great improvement with mine.
