Mosin extractor question

[irishelcid]

Does anyone know where I can get an extractor for a mosin nagant? I have searched high and low on google, but all I can find is a bolt head with an extractor on it. Secondly, if I end up just getting the bbolt head will I have to get my rifle head spaced after replacing the part? Thanks in advance!

This place has a kit including bolt head with extractor. Part way down the page. If you replace outer bolt parts, then yes, you should have the headspace checked.

The extractor can be tapped rearward out of its dovetail, and tapped back in. Get the new bolthead, remove it's extractor and replace the one in your rifle's bolthead. No headspacing needed.

Ditto what MikeG said. Changing the extractor is a piece of cake. Might want to get a complete bolt. Sarco has them for like $40, that way you'll have a spare firing pin and spring too!
