POTD: North Korean Type 73 LMG

The Type 73 looks somewhat like North Korea’s attempt at copying the Bren LMG with a lot of influence from the Russian PK guns. Here is another photo that looks like it might be taken from the same photo shoot. I wonder how the sights work? Are they offset so they clear the giant vertical magazine? Because, looking at the photos, they don’t look like they are offset.

    Sorry I'm late to the party again but the sights and mag are both slightly offset. Sights to the shooter's right and mag to the shooter's left. And come on guys! Let's cut out the barber comments. I know from experience you can't put a million dollar haircut on a $2 head. It would be akin to Lassie's rump hair growing from a turnip.
