The RP-46 was widely used by Soviet forces but was rapidly replaced by the lighter and more reliable PK.

The RP-46 is a machine gun of Soviet origin. It was designed to provide more firepower than the DP-28 machine gun. The development was completed during World War 2 and production began in 1946. RP-46 stands for "Rotnyi Pulemet 1946", which is Russian for "company level machine gun model 1946".
HISTORY
The RP-46 is a further development of the DPM. It features a belt feed system, thicker barrel and sturdier bipod. The belt feed system can be removed to allow DP drum magazines to be used. The barrel can be changed, but it is not a true quick change barrel system. The RP-46 can only be used from its bipod and cannot be mounted on a vehicle or tripod.
The RP-46 was widely used by Soviet forces but was rapidly replaced by the lighter and more reliable PK. The RP-46 was also widely exported to Soviet allies and produced under license in China as the Type 58 and in North Korea as the Type 64. Nowadays it is obsolete but remains in service with third world nations.
