Good thing you avoided the Type-56 SKS which is notorious for the same issue! https://youtu.be/8l4saQRbNgM?t=2

I too gently press the slide forward to load the chamber but for fear of collapsing a bullet in its case :3c

Renowned for having the best and longest track record for reliability. Nine years I've owned mine and the only time it failed on me was after I installed a Glock 20 spring so not even the pistol's fault. Funny enough, it ran fine after "breaking in" the 20-pounder with a couple boxes of M882 [Winchester White Box]
