Extractor Removing Tool

[Hamster]

Hello,

does anyone know if an "Extractor Removing Tool" for the M3 or M3A1 did exist?

 

Someone on the internet was selling this item, but there is no picture.

I wonder wether this is an original issued accessory or just a post-war tool made for shooters and collectors?

 

And just another question:

On Wikipedia is written: "The stylus on the oiler cap could also double as a drift to remove the extractor pin."

Has anyone tried it? Does it work well? I wonder if the stylus is robust enough.

 

Unfortunately I can not try it on my Grease Gun because it is deactivated to German gun law (cut-off bolt face)

 

Thanks!

Michael

I think its well worth the $ 20 bucks Also I sent for a real good Army Technical Manual TM9-2171-1 ( Jan 1957 ) What makes this book neat ,is the Riveting anvil and the Rivet set in this book showing how to use it and prints of it besides all the other information in it . You can pay $ 65.00 for a real one or $ 12.99 for a copy from ARMYNAVYSALES.COM

There is another book like this one but I can't find it . If somebody has one ,I would like to buy it from you.

Army Technical Manual TM 9-1217 (Dec 1945 )

And by the way the extractor for these grease guns are hard to find although Sarco has them for $ 70.00 (lot of money)

Dear Tino,

thanks for the information.

 

Luckily some days ago I got a Christmas-present ... some Grease Gun accessories incl. an extractor pin remover toll :-)

It's just a small rod with a step near one end.

 

With best wishes
