I bought a used 915 slide off of eBay and my plan is to have it cerakoted black to make my 5906 a two tone. I stripped the safety decocker/striker down and removed the sights with my pusher(rusted sights were a pain) but am stuck on the extractor, it will not budge despite kroil, wd40 etc. I think someone put in the wrong pin or installed it backwards because I used the correct punch size and put it in a vise and it’s fused in there. Not sure if it’s rusted or what but after I started to mar the slide in frustration I quit. Would like some info on a smith that could remove it, possibly cerakote the slide, then reinstall the extractor with a fresh spring(old one may be corroded like others in safety/decocker were) and check tension. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
