A gigantic Soviet machine gun firing 12.7x108mm, the DShK machine gun has a long and storied history dating back to 1938. With an insanely cool revolver-like feed cylinder for its ammunition, the Dushka's greatest weakness has always been its fixed nature. Sure, the gun alone may weigh ~75 lbs, but what's that to stop a suitably burly Soviet from picking the thing up and going to town?
In addition to a "standard" handheld DShK firing 12.7x108mm, this mod also includes a Metro favorite: the DShK "Abzats." Designed for close-quarters fighting in enclosed tunnels, this DShK has been rechambered in 23x75mmR for maximum destruction. It also has a few other modifications, like a simpler fixed rear sight, no muzzle brake, and a slower rate of fire.
