News flash for you Dude; it was lacquer, gooey, sticky, and didn't rub off on your hands. I've been doing this for a long time so those pics are from long ago.
So have I. What you "think" was lacquer, is the generously applied primer sealant on all the Russian ammo, that was "gooey and sticky". It coats everything inside the gun and collects quite well under the extractor. It is also not recommended to shoot brass after steel because of a lot of folks getting stuck cases. Which leads to a second theory, that residual red primer sealant is being carried back into the chamber as the rounds are fed, causing a build up, that eventually leads to stuck cases.
