Wait...you're actually using it? 
I didn't think they were meant to actually be used once you left the FFL

While using the bore lock I'm noticing that it's being damaged by the extractor. Is this normal or could this be damaging my extractor? Apologies if I'm not using the right terminology

The sole purpose of the bore lock is to infringe on your natural, civil, constitutional rights. It has no real benefits over, say, a nice safe. The sole use is to get your gun from point A (FFL) to point B (home) without forking over an extra $30. Keep it in your range bag so the next time you are at your FFL, you dont forget it when picking up a new firearm. I guarantee your range bag has no extractor.
I'm just checking it out bro, right now the the people in this house are not used to it. Until my safe gets here that's how it is.Wait...you're actually using it?

I gotcha, for my own education I'm just trying to find out if it is damaging the gun.

I highly doubt it will do anything steel cased 9mm wouldn't do. If anything, I'd say your gun is damaging your bore lock not the other way around
none needed bro
Update, called the manufacturer it seems that this one is defective they're sending me a new one.While using the bore lock I'm noticing that it's being damaged by the extractor. Is this normal or could this be damaging my extractor? Apologies if I'm not using the right terminology

Why should we Free BSD?
Even if you move, you can still help fight, by sending emails, supporting MSI, etc... I am continuing to do that, like I have since 2010.
First thing I'm doing as soon as I get some free time outside of work and I remember, is to join WVCDL.

I hear WV is nice.
WV is changing, yes. But WV is changing in a way that goes against MD.
WVCDL is leading the fight, and succeeding!!!

380 ACP is essentially a 9mm Short (9mm Kurz). It is 9mm, but the case is shorter.

Yeah that’s looking like an option, though moving further inward to some place like Kentucky or Tennessee is also appealing. Not sure what their gun laws are but I never recall hearing either of them pass laws like MD.
That was just me not knowing anything about 380 and basing my response on the fact that Omega has locks in both calibers. Learned something new though so that’s a positive. There’s probably a gun store somewhere who would be anal about it and refuse to release a 9mm with a 380 lock, but most probably don’t even check anything except that you have a lock with you.

Lets just put it this way, look at the firearm laws in the states you are considering and go with one that is most in line with what you want.
As for the bore locks, I've never been required to leave the shop with it installed. It just had to have one, when I picked it up.
Going to pick up a pistol next weekend, god willing, and do the C&C thing. Without using a bore lock.
The statute makes no mention that it has to be INSTALLED. On that the handgun HAVE the lock when it is transferred.
A small but important difference as noted.

Legislative intent could be scrutinized but as usual the statute is poorly written.

My read of "legislative intent" is that no handguns except a few revolvers have an "integrated" safety device as actually intended. The concept of the bore lock was authorized (by the roster board, about a year after the law in 03?) because police could not buy their Berettas, as they did not have an "integrated" device. So the board graciously allowed bore locks to pass muster, otherwise it would be a complete ban on new guns except for Smith and Wesson and Taurus revolvers which had the Hillary hole. Thats my recollection anyway.

Yep. I bought my Springfield 1911-A1 Just a week before BHO was inaugurated with "integrated" safety device. Still have it with a few modifications.
