This video analyzes an interesting extractor failure on a Schwarzlose 1898 pistol using slow-motion footage. The description discusses the necessity of extractors in firearms, noting that some early blowback pistols and later Spanish models functioned without them, relying on residual chamber pressure. The Schwarzlose 1898, however, is equipped with an extractor that malfunctioned in this shooting session. Two instances that appeared normal in real-time were revealed as extractor failures upon reviewing the high-speed footage, making them an excellent case study.
