RPK vs. RPD. Which one would you choose?

Everybody knows the RPK and most of you have already shot with one of them (or most of you have been shot by one of them!). Still talking about the airsoft replica, of course. But it is possible that some people don’t know its cousin RPD, the novelty that generates the agitation.

RPK

The RPK is a Soviet light machine gun. Besides having the same structure than the AK47 (but this is not an AK47 with a large barrel, it’s different!), it uses the same munitions than the common assault rifle designed by Mijail Kaláshnikov.

 

RPD

The RPD for its part, was the predecessor of the RPK (we understand then the similar physical appearance) even if it has been designed by Vasily Degtyaryov to substitute the DPM, not on the British camouflage but on the soviet machine gun and its silver charger (you will remember it through the video games of the WW2).

LCT RPD replica will make happy the "rusky lovers", the support rol players, the airsofters in general... It has a 1043 mm length of metal and Wood, a weight of 7kg like the authentic one, and the most important, signed by LCT, one of the most renowned brand according to the AKs.
