Reddog,
Read my signature line! I have been doing this a whole lot of years. I already gave you the answer how to fix your problem.
Shorten the front of the extractor rod until the end of the center pin is flush with the extractor rod. To check this place the back end (extractor) against a flat surface to push the center pin flush with the extractor. If the extractor rod is even .001-.002 above the end of the center pin you will have problems opening the gun. Preferably face the extractor rod in a lathe, but filing will work fine if you can file the end of the rod so it is square.
That's twice. Now, do it right or do it your way, your choice.
