Thanks buddy for the info.Well this weapon was a commonly used one during 1947 operation as i had seen in a doordarsan documentary about that war ,couple of years back.Also scaled down version of this rifle have been spotted with RAF recently in some forums.

PKP Pecheneg bull-pup:





I see the benefit of the fore-grip. I see the benefit of that structire above the barrel to mount the scope. I also see the benefit of the tilted ammo-belt box. Why is there yet another grip on the stock? Also, where is the ammo-feed?

Here is Dmitry Rogozin, visibly happy to hold the Pecheneg:

Ammo feed goes from a box to a receiver on a right side, you can see it here:

Second grip is required to fire from a bipod.

Also the belt can go from a backpack:

Is it only me seeing two triggers?:)those are converted ones from regular pkps.
The main problem with PKP(not bulpup) is that as the bipood is at extreme forward position the arc of fire off it is limited though it gives high stability during burst fire.






Only god and that guy knows how to fire it while riding
