Essentially if the slide was released under full RSA tension with certain types of chamber flags in the barrel the extractor would be pushed out too far causing the firing pin safety to come unseated and render the pistol inoperable. While I’m not privy to all the details it had to do with a rare situation involving chamber flags. Pistols with serial number prefix AEHK and on will have that modification. Since the change was to the slide and extractor the newer extractor is not compatible with your slide.Īs this was a manufacturing modification you do not need to have your slide or extractor replaced as there are no specific issues with your extractor or slide. AEBK was among the earlier produced G44s and would have the original extractor design installed. The extractor change you are referring to was part of a slide and extractor modification. Here is a copy of an email from Glock and the poster's comments (posted on GlockTalk) as to why there was a change, it apparently has nothing to do with functioning or firing:Īfter so really digging, I received answers straight from GLOCK: There also was a slide and extractor change on Glock 44's made after serial prefix AEHK. I don't have one but over on GlockTalk lots of people do have them and are generally liking the pistol a lot. 22 thing even if it is meant to mimic a Glock 19. Personally, I cannot get past the nearly all plastic.
