Anyone have a spare Walther P.38 extractor plunger?

[1KPerDay]

Of course I haaaaaad to take out the extractor. In my den. Kachoinnnnng!! *ping* *ping* *rattle*

Found the spring.... plunger is nowhere to be found. Tried magnets etc.

maybe the elves will come and fix it overnight.

Numrich doesn’t have one.

The wife will vacuum it up sooner or later.

She won’t touch my den. I’ll get my kid in here and pay her $10 if she finds it. She found a P220 trigger bar spring for me the other day LOL.

Well there it is!

I got Radom P35 grip screws from there and they were perfect.

1Kperday, your girl will find the lost plunger immediately after you hit “submit order”

Robert has p38/p1 extractor plungers often, got my replacement from him. Reliable. Currently out of stock 5/22/21.

Disassembly in a plastic basis the answer you seek.

That’s my luck! I sent a 1911 bushing into orbit trying to put together my SA V-16 with the two piece guide rod and mega recoil spring. (It literally takes three hands to reassemble!)

I lost the bushing somewhere in my garage, looked for two hours before giving up. I ordered a new one, then found the old one two weeks after the new one arrived (it was high up on a shelf, well hidden behind some stuff.)

1K, hopefully the part will turn up soon!

Stay safe.

YUP!

A big clear plastic bag, or a big plastic storage tub with Saran Wrap across the top.

Of course, this is one of those life lessons that require you to hear the sproing, zing, ping, etc, before you begin to understand and see the light Grasshopper.

For me it was a 1918, 1911 guide rod. Don't remember if I ever found it? I always refer to it as the Ralph Kramden effect. "Bang, Zoom... You're going to the Moon!"

If you reload check out your depriming pins and see if you can make a plunger. Look at other firearms designs for a plunger.

yeah. The videos I watched showed the extractor just coming out gently and the plunger having to be dumped out. I still should have known better though.

upside is I’m getting my messy overcrowded den nice and clean if nothing else LOL

Yeah. $21 for a plunger is a little steep for my Scottish blood. It may come to that, though.

 

[1KPerDay]

Can’t find it. guess I get to learn yet another expensive lesson.

 

[herrwalther]

Is this the part you lost?

No, but thank you. I ordered a replacement extractor plunger from Jack First.

 

[whughett]

What really grabs me is to find a small part on the shop floor and not know what it belongs to.............
