Just have to remember to pull it back slightly to make sure the extractor caught correctly. Then there should be no set back even if it were going to happen, no hitting a feed ramp.
Just an FYI:Don't make a habit of doing this with a 1911, the "internal" extractor is not designed to "snap" over the rim of the cartridge, but to "slide" and lock into it as the case is pushed up from the magazine. You can break the extractor.
Custom 1911s with "external" extractors do not have this issue. Now, back to your regularly scheduled posting
