I have a AK from Arsanal in TX I think is great but it does something odd. When the empty cases come out they are all cripped at the case mouth. It is about one quarter of the diameter creased in tword the center. I have had a couple of failures to feed in about 500 rounds. Any thoughtsThanks

Welcome pmbss396

I'd venture to guess that the crimping is being done by the case hitting some part of the weapon after extraction.  Perhaps the bolt handle, carrier face, or dust cover? ETA: look for any indication of case impact on those areas...
