Arsenal 7.62x54mm Machine Gun MG-1M
The 7.62×54 mm ARSENAL Machine Gun MG-1M is a modern version of the PKM, a powerful automatic weapon used against enemy troops, vehicles, and reinforced structures. Comparable to the U.S military medium machine gun, the M240B and M240G, the MG-1M is considerably lighter (approx. 7 lbs.), fires a larger round, and uses a non-disintegrating belt for the cartridge. Considered one of the most reliable machine guns still in service throughout the world, the MG-1M is an overall excellent choice for firepower. Utilizing a fluted barrel, this design allows increased cooling surface of the barrel and is specifically intended to allow operation of the weapon in heavy climatic conditions (tropic and desert), which are typical for the regions of Middle East, south-east Asia and Africa.
