So I ordered basically an extractor assembly, the extractor, spring and both front and rear pins. Was somewhat suprised by what I received.
The extractor looked like it had been polished very nicely around the claw area that grabs the rim of the cartridge. Also the round end of the extractor opposite of the claw had a nice polish to it. The outside edge of the extractor, however, is a bit rougher than my original one.
Now the rear pin looks the same, the front however is "lightened". Its thinner in diameter in the middle of the pin compared to the ends of the pin. Both front and rear pins seem to be the same length.
The new spring is about 3 coils longer than my original spring.
All of this seems odd to me as I had sent Kahr my P380 back in July and the repair invoice basically stated that they replaced everything in the slide except the slide. So wasnt expecting to find a difference in these parts. Only ordered them so I could have some spares.
