I ordered a rear extractor pin and an extractor spring, and set to repairing my pistol. I took off the slide plate and removed the firing pin spring and plunger, then inverted the slide and gave it a "TAP" to dislodge all the parts. Removed the extractor and pushed a punch in---and out came all three remaining parts. The front extractor pin was upside down, and I think the previous owner somehow got the rear extractor pin inserted BEFORE the spring, and somehow cobbled the whole shebang together.
I installed everything in the proper order, got it reassembled(Glock slides are MUCH easier to reassemble, BTW),and everything seems fine.
Now I have an extra extractor spring and rear pin.
