Annihilator Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Greetings can anyone tell me how to remove (and replace) the MG34 extractor ? The spring is very heavy. Is there a special tool needed ? Many thanks in advance Pierre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoscoeTurner Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 There is a special tool for this, photo 465 in MG34-MG42 German Universal Machineguns.What is the reason you want to remove the extractor? If it is not broken and only needs cleaning don't worry about removing it, just soak it in cleaner, dry and oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annihilator Posted May 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 Many thanks for the information. The bolt is pitted and i want to remove parts for spares. I looked at the tool in Folke's book, but still do not know how to proceed. I applied some serious force on the ejector retainer against the spring, but that damn thing will not come out. I think one needs 3 hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterike Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 I think I have a spare MG34 extractor tool (Israel version) in the spares bin. If you are interested, I'll take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
