What should I do?

[u/old_rug]

First shot of the day my sks did this. Anyone know what caused this and how I can fix this? Is this a gunsmith problem? I should add its stuck, I tried popping it out both with a ram rod and prying it out and its stuck pretty good

It just ripped the rim, you can pop it out with a cleaning rod down the barrel or something. Might have pitting or corrosion in your chamber that caused the case to not want to extract dunno find out after you pop it out and inspect

Quarter inch brass rod from the local home improvement store. Do not use a steel rod unless you hate your gun.

Beat the sucker out. Violence should be escalated until victory.

That brass rod is also hella useful if you get into reloading and you're also an idiot like me who sometimes forgets to add powder to a cartridge and you end up with a squib.

Put your cleaning rod down the barrel . Use a nail or some extension. Than beat it with a hammer , hard.
