#MK-74
Experimental Mosin-Nagant Rifle Chambered in 7.62x39mm
In the ’40s, the Soviet Union has developed its intermediate cartridge ( 7.62x39mm) and adopted a number of firearms chambered in this caliber – the Simonov self-loading rifle (SKS), Kalashnikov’s “avtomat” (AK-47) and Degtyaryov light machine gun ( RPD). However, there was another firearm developed in this caliber which was not adopted and ultimately became forgotten.
