Give this a try:


Oh, so where do the bullets go

Did the extractor hook break? you'll need to look at the very end of the extractor and see if it's still intact. If the end of the hook breaks, you're stuck with a single shot pistol. However, getting a new extractor is pretty simple, not terribly expensive and the above video is helpful for setting the tension.

Remove the extractor and bend it inward a bit (increases tension). This is extremely easy to do and there is very little risk of doing damage.
