Yeah my Chinese is the same way but it had some old cosmo in there....
Im going to try soaking them again but if it dont tap out ill have to live with soaking them for cleaning.... hopefully I never have to take them apart to replace anything......the guy on the video I watched on youtube didnt seem to have that much trouble but maybe he has taken it apart a couple times....maybe ill make a little jig where I can clamp it down good I deffinately dont want to booger it up...

I think I pulled the firing pin once since 198(?) on my first Chinese SKS. Otherwise, its only been on rustbuckets that other people owned, and not many of those...(Which is why I misremembered at first-it's been a while!) It's pretty doggone rugged and worry free w/just the tiniest bit of cleaning.
