Working on my first ak build, and as I'm pressing the barrel into the trunnion and the bottom piece of the trunnion, it appears to be riveted in,  it pops out.  now can i JB weld it back in?  also has this happened to anyone before? what did i do wrong?

Does your barrel have a 90 degree corner at the back or does it have some sort of relief (undercut, broken edge, etc)?

Looks like the bullet guide.

You can drill and tap in a new one from Carolina Shooters Supply:
