A copy of the Soviet Degtyaryov Infantry Machine Gun, produced with a combination of military surplus components and new made parts from Wise Lite Arms, including a semi-automatic only closed bolt receiver. The Degtyaryov and its variants were widely used as infantry support and vehicle mounted weapons by both Russia and the Finns during the Continuation War, as well as being used by the Chinese in the Second Sino-Japanese War and the Korean War. Adjustable pin front and tangent rear sights, with "1943" behind the rear sight, maker's markings on the right side of the frame and the signature pan magazine, with rotating top cover, on top. Fitted with a ventilated heat shield, a swiveling steel bipod, grip safety immediately behind the trigger guard and a smooth semi-pistol grip stock with a sling swivel and integral grease container.

Excellent, with 97% plus of the factory blue finish, showing some minor sub-surface pitting and mild handling marks overall. Stock is very good, with some dents and stains. Mechanically excellent.
