In late 2005, a Russian mineral exploration company discovered a series of large oilfields in southern Sudan. Sudan’s Military government, with its ability to hold the newly revitalised Sudanese People’s Liberation Army at bay beginning to falter, decided this new source of oil was its one sure-fire way to hold onto power.

PK (Pulemyot Kalashnikova) was developed in
1960's as a replacement for WW2-era SGM
machinegun and as a general-peurpose MG. PK may be
used with integral bipods or on lightweight tripod
(then named PKS - PK Stankovyj - tripod mounted
PK).
PK is a gas operated, rotating bolt, belt-fed
machinegun. Since it uses old rimmed cartridge
7.62x54R, it has special design features - when
chambering new loads, special extractor first
retrieves new cartridge from the belt when bolt
carrier moves back (spent case extracted
simulateonously) and on its way forward feeds new
cartridge into the chamber.
Barrel is quick intergangeable, with chrome lined
chamber and bore.
PKM and PKMS are slighly improved (Modified)
versions of PK and PKS, with reduced weight and
increased reliability.
