Ive seen hot brass go down the front of male and female competitor shirts during a run. Not fun at all.It functions right?does it matter which direction the brass goes?

The dip is a relief area caused by the mold to make the extractor.
The left most extractor below is dipped
The relief area causes less friction. Production of dipped extractors are long gone.

Yes all those weeks in the burn unit recovering would be expensiveIve seen hot brass go down the front of male and female competitor shirts during a run. Not fun at all.
Yes, but you will not find one. They were phased out around 2012.So the dipped extractor is better?
The Gen 4 ejector will work just fine. That is what I am running.Well the gen 5 ejector is out of stock, but the gen 4 still appears to be available. I wonder how that would work?
It actually does matter which direction the brass goes. As others have said, it is no fun getting hot brass down your shirt. And it is no fun having the infamous Brass To the Face either.It functions right?does it matter which direction the brass goes?

The very best extractor was the cast version made prior to 2009. No mold marks, little friction.
Better to just visually inspect your current extractor and polish if needed.
In 2012 we didn’t have the 47021 ejector. It helps a lot, even on a Gen 3. All my 9mm Glocks have 47021 ejectors now except my P80.
Great article on the 47021 ejector

I remember reading many years ago that Glock suggested wearing a hat with a bill. Might have been in a manual.Toy or weapon?
Wear a hat when training. Don't have exposed cleavage when training.
Think that your targets are eating or attacking your kids/wife/parents/dog.
Ignore the ejections-- if you know where they are going, you are not focused on the problem. Cases reliably exiting out of the chamber is all that matters.
These lonewolf extractors that I ordered, the less expensive ones,($16.99 a piece) say they are cast. From their website-The very best extractor was the cast version made prior to 2009. No mold marks, little friction
.... and polish the extractor ;-)Since I already have the 30274 ejector ordered, it would be easier to just do it myself...

So the part of the extractor that you are polishing is the ridges to the right of the photo, which apparently ride contact the frame?
