Within the last month, I get nothing but broken shells and missing primers. I fired maybe 2,000 rounds out of my AK since last year. What could be wrong with my AK? ––- Vector AK firing 7.62x39 Wolf Military Classic and Tula FMJ.

I didn't fire the rifle for a few weeks and then it started up with this broken case issue. Reading up on it, it seems like excessive headspacing,

   Loose rivets , or barrel was undersize for trunion to begin with.

...or barrel pin was undersized allowing barrel to move forward.
