Did some fiddling, noticed on my other barrel the extractor will go flush, on this barrel, it will not. so I took out the extractor and barrel locks easily. I dont see how this worked on anyone elses rig, but at least I know where to start. I cleaned some carbon off between the extractor and where it fits into the barrel, that helped some, so did a little filing to make it go it a tad more.

With a case in it, itll close pretty easily now, still takes a little help, so it may need a little more filing, but Itll get there.
