    Default Installing new extracor spring on CZ75

    I'm doing a bit of a spring overhaul on my CZ75b SP-01. Among the springs i've ordered are two +10% magazine springs, a 16lb recoil spring (up from 14lb stock) and a +25% extractor spring.

    My question is can and should I, a person with very limited firearm experience and no specialized gun tools, attempt to install the extractor spring myself? If I can do it, where can I go for some reference material? If I can't do it, how much would a gunsmith charge?

    can someone point out the extractor spring in this picture?

    I cant make out the extractor spring in those pictures.

    The spring is a tiny coil spring located behind the extractor. It pushes out on the back of the extractor which puts pressure on the front of the extractor where it clips onto the case.

    The extractor is pinned in place with that one pin that it pivots on under spring pressure.

    A good parts break down and the proper punch/hammer should make the job easy. If you are not comfortable doing it, a gunsmith should be able to do it for less than $20.

    i looked in my manual and found the extractor spring but in my inexperience i do not know how to actually get to it. perhaps it's best for me to ask for help. thanks for your input.
