870 super express extractors, are they a hard replacement?
I'm having a little trouble pulling my 3 1/2 spent hulls out of the chamber.
'Course they never stick till the geese are landing in your face and you'd love to fire all three shells. It just seams to be my 3 1/2 " goose loads. All the other reloads run like silk with only a very few hanging up.

It has been a while since I replaced an extractor on an 870 (not a super express).

The extractor is held in place by a spring/plunger.  If you use a small screwdriver to pry back the plunger toward the bear of the bolt body(compressing the spring) then the extractor will come out IF you rotate the tip of it across the bolt face (from the 9 oclock position to the 3 oclock position as viewed by the front of the bolt).  IIRC the extractor

Hope this helps, your super express might be different?
