- 2Direction: Ejectors move objects away from a location, while extractors pull objects towards them.
- 3Usage: Ejectors are used to remove waste or unwanted material from a production line, while extractors are used to remove screws, nails, or other fasteners from a surface.

Remember this!
Ejector and extractor are both devices that remove something from a particular location, but they differ in their function, direction, usage, location, and application in firearms. An ejector forcefully expels or throws out something, often used in manufacturing or production processes, while an extractor removes or takes out something, often used as a handheld tool. In firearms, an ejector removes spent cartridges from the chamber after firing, while an extractor pulls the cartridge out of the chamber for reloading.
