Numrich Gun Parts may have what you need in the way of an extractor. Keep the pistol and keep it running.

You'll never regret it.

That is why folks (like me) usually recommend not firing old guns, especially those with hard rubber (gutta percha) grips. It is a natural product that becomes brittle with age and will often crack in firing or if dealt even a light blow.

I have had good luck with these folks, and this looks like the right one for your gun. You can use one repro and one original for a little more originality.

Contact this guy Tom heller. [email protected] he may be helpful in finding parts for you. A good guy that I have worked with in the past restoring old firearms to working condition.

That article in #2 is about the best I have seen on these guns. I had a link to a schematic drawing but cannot seem to find it. Maybe Google that topic?

Well, this should certainly put the idea of hot loads in antiques to rest. Even standard loads can be a bit much.

Do get your parts and repair it, it's a beauty.
