Most Remington 870 and 1100 shotguns leave the factory with a metal injection molded extractor, and while it does the job for a while, the hook edge tends to round off over time and start leaving spent hulls in the chamber. Volquartsen's Exact Edge Extractor is the drop-in answer that a whole lot of 870 and 1100 owners reach for first. It swaps that soft factory part for a precision piece of solid steel built to grab shells and hold that grip for the long haul.
This one is cut from A2 tool steel using an EDM (electrical discharge machining) process rather than the injection molding used on the factory part. That method lets Volquartsen hold tolerances down to about +/-.0001 inch and produce a very precise hook point. The result is a cleaner, sharper edge that bites the rim of the shell and pulls it free with more authority than a worn stamped or molded extractor.
The extractor is hardened to a Rockwell C 58 to 60, which is the whole point of the upgrade. Under repeated impact and thousands of cycles, that hardened edge resists rolling over and staying sharp is what keeps shells feeding and ejecting cleanly. It fits both 12 and 20 gauge 870 and 1100 shotguns and directly replaces Remington factory part number 16176, so you know you're getting the right piece for the job.
For turkey hunters, waterfowl guns, home defense builds, or a range beater that just needs to run, this is one of the most cost-effective improvements you can make to the internals. It addresses a known weak spot in the Remington design instead of piling on cosmetic parts. Plenty of folks report their guns cycling noticeably better afterward, especially older 870s and 1100s that had started short-stroking or leaving hulls behind.
Yes. This extractor is designed for both 12 and 20 gauge Remington 870 pump guns and 1100 semi-autos. It directly replaces Remington factory part number 16176.
Many owners report it dropping right in with no adjustment on both 870 and 1100 guns. That said, it's worth checking the fit after install and cycling the action by hand. If you feel any resistance, a tiny bit of filing or a quick trip to a gunsmith will dial it in perfectly.
Factory 870 and 1100 extractors are typically metal injection molded, and that hook edge can wear or roll over with use, which leads to shells hanging up in the chamber. The Volquartsen part is cut from hardened A2 tool steel to hold its sharp edge far longer, giving you more positive extraction. It's widely considered one of the smartest first upgrades for these shotguns.
Not necessarily. A lot of people swap the extractor by pulling the bolt back partway in the ejection port and holding the plunger and spring while lifting out the old part. Work over a towel or inside a bag so the small spring-loaded plunger doesn't launch across the room, and the whole job usually takes just a few minutes.
