		  Note – there are differences 
		between the Old/Style and the New/Style extractor. 
		This N/S has a lip on the top (as shown) of the extractor for the 
		plunger to hook against and onto.  
		The plunger has a radiused ball rear end.  The breechbolt 
		has the hole for the plunger with THREE different diameters from front 
		to rear of the hole to accommodate the larger front of the plunger 
		to allow it to move up and down in operation of snapping over the rim of 
		the cartridge.

You may notice here that Remington added a prefix number 2 to any parts 
that were changed or different within the model series.
The Long Rifle version has a 22 LR stamped on the rear of the 
breechbolt. The 22 Short has no designation, but has relief cuts on both sides 
to lighten it.  
Note the coil springs have a somewhat closed one end. 
If in doubt of which is needed, the O/S extractor & 
plunger can be used in the N/S breechbolt, however the plunger will be sloppy in 
the hole, but not the other way around.
