All reproductions use the lane extractor to my knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Armisport came out with the reproduction Spencers they used a double paddle extractor on them. They were problematic and caused jams when used. Later Armisport changed to the Lane extractor and this solved all the jamming problems. I am not sure but I think only the ones made in 44 Russian and 45 Schofield used the double paddle extractors. When they started making the ones in 44-40 and 45LC I believe that they were only made with a Lane extractor, but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My original has a blade. No problems whatsoever with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
