Chinese SKS Type 56 Question

[JMon]

So I was at the range today and I loaded 5 Military Surplus (S&B) rounds via stripper clip and closed the chamber. Shot 4 rounds and then noticed that the bolt was back and gun was empty. Then on the table I see the 5th round. Loaded that 5th round by it self and it was a dud. One question, how did the gun eject that round if it was a dud?? am I mising something here?

there is a dudd sensor in the chinese SKS , its senses dud and ejects it without chambering and chamber the next good round , an important feature during battle.


ok, just joking . it was a conincident .


did you have press hard to get the last round into the mag ? possibly not enuff room for the last round creating a bit of tension .

Some SKS mags don't hold the shells in very securely. Perhaps the fifth shell "fell" out of the mag. when the forth shell was being ejected. Just an uneducated guess.
