Provided herein are extractors, bolt assemblies, firearms, and related methods, devices, and assemblies. A firearm extractor includes a first end, a second end opposite the first end, an axis defined between the first end and the second end, and a pivot portion between the first end and the second end. The extractor may include a notch defined at the inner side of the extractor at an axial location between the pivot portion and the first end that, in operation, engages a cartridge casing having a diameter greater than a casing of a 5.56 NATO cartridge or other platform-standard cartridge. A thickness of the extractor in at least one location defined at the axial location of the notch disposed radially inward of one or more lugs of a barrel or a barrel extension during cycling of the bolt may be greater than 0.019 inches.
