RpkThe RPK is the light machine gun that replaced the RPD in the role as squad automatic weapon for Soviet infantry. It is basically an AK-47 with a sturdier receiver, heavier and longer barrel, new stock, and new sights; it can use any magazine that an AK-47 can. A paratrooper variant called the RPK-S had a side-folding stock. This weapon has officially been replaced by the RPK74 in the Soviet army, but is still used by many second-line and non-infantry soldiers, in addition to other organizations around the world.
