The scenario was as follows. A chambered round failed to fired. The user pulled back the bolt but the round failed to ejected. The user then dropped the rifle to the side of their body in order to inspect the action. The detachable 30 round magazine had not been removed and the bolt was let go. The second round slammed into and ignited the primer causing the chambered round’s casing to explode. It sent the bullet down range and a piece of the casing into the users stomach, causing death.

1. you wait 30 sec pointing downrange if you get a missfire...:confused:
2. if nothing happen after those 30 sec, REMOVE THE MAGAZINE or DROPS THE ROUNDS IN A FIXED SKS MAG-BOX (still pointing downrange):scrutiny:
3. rotate the rifle (dont turn it to you side) pull the bolt back and check the chamber, if a round it's still in the chamber " try to remove the round with a cleaning rod pushing the round "slowly" not hitting it.:scrutiny:
