PKP 6P41 Pecheneg machine gun

The PKP Pecheneg (Pulemyot Kalashnikova Pekhotny "Pecheneg") is a Russian 7.62×54mm general-purpose machine gun. It is currently in use by Russian Army Spetsnaz and other troops in significant numbers. Even though it was developed mainly for infantry use, it also has been fitted to several light vehicles.
The PKP Pecheneg is intended for use from an integral bipod as a squad support weapon. It can provide more sustained firepower than the standard-issue RPK-74, and the 7.62×54mmR cartridge offers a longer effective range and better penetration of light structures and improvised covers in urban and forest environments.

The name "Pecheneg" comes from a warlike tribe of Turkic origin who lived in what later became steppes of Southern Russia and Ukraine.
