First,not many pumpguns of any kind have been damaged by racking them hard and certainly no 870s.
Rack them like you mean it. And go ahead, wear one out.
I double dog dare ya...
Re extractors, I have little input. None of mine have given me any hint of trouble. Back when 32 870s were part of my area of responsibility, an occasional 870 would require cleaning crud from the plunger channel and a relube.
I note the 20 gauge Express has a bit less "Hook" on the extractor than those on the WMs. I don't know whether that's typical. All work 100%.
IMO, MIM vs forged is a non issue.....
