Exactamente!
It's a pin that's shorter than it's bore, both
ends are tapered, and that part of the bolt is contained within
the carrier--so it's got nowhere to go, even if
it wasn't retained in position by extractor
spring tension.
I couldn't guess how many times we pressed out
the pin and cleaned extractors on A1s...and we didn't
even have rubber inserts, or O-rings, and don't recall
seeing or hearing of an extraction failure, ever.
