The mystery continues . . .
Okay, so turns out the firing pin was hanging up on the places that the new extractor protrudes into the channel that guides the firing pin. A Jewelers fill and a some time and the gun "dry fires" just fine. Take it to the range today and nothing. With a live round in the chamber the trigger doesn't even pull. It's not a light strike . . . it's nothing. Un load the gun and it dry fires just fine. Are we having fun yet.
Next plan is to compare body of old extractor with new. Not real sure where to go from there. May have to find a gun smith.
Life is good.
