Even if broken into rather small pieces, both the piston and cylinder walls would be trashed before the rings could all work their way out completely.
The compression ring is thicker than the piston to cylinder clearance any way you turn it, even if the piece is only 3/8" long.

This kinda makes me want to think maybe you possibly have a stuck, or sticking exhaust valve.
