How would that work, exactly? The claw snap ove rthe rim when the bolt is closing?
Yea... they designed a claw extractor to snap over the rim. It was a stupid idea then, and remains a stupid idea. I love my M77 tang safety, but rim snap-over with a claw extractor is annoying (even with a claw extractor designed for it).

They could have gone with controlled-round-feed, quite easily. But, we got stuck with a claw extractor that has to snap over cartridge rims.
