I am primarily a revolver guy and did not know this. Mechanically, since the extractor (on my cz) is spring metal, I am not seeing how it could cause damage? i'll have to look at it and run it through the motions with dummy rounds.
I reload for my 9mm 75B. I had 3 empty cases with damaged primers . I dropped the cases in until it hit the extractor and then dropped the slide to chamber them. They all fired and extracted . Less than a week later (at a Match) the extractor claw broke off. The shape of the extractor claw is not designed to it will flex 'outward' when forcing a case into the chamber. The case head slides up and under the extractor when the barrel tilts.

Believe what you want. They are cheap and easy to replace.
