The RPK-16 is a Russian light machine gun developed from the AK-12 and RPK-400 . The RPK-16 was first revealed in 2016.
The RPK-16 could be considered an equivalent of foreign light machine guns such as the M249 , which are chambered in the same ammunition as the primary firearms and had the capability of utilizing magazines from them as well. Likewise, the RPK-16 is capable of fitting any AK-74 or RPK-74 magazines, and comes with its own special 95-rnd drum magazine. The RPK-16 has a better accuracy and a higher rate of fire than its predecessor, the RPK-74 . Other design features come from firearms such as the AK-100 series, and the AK-400 .
The RPK-16 comes equipped with MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny Rails, which can be used to mount any number of attachments. The sides of the hand-guard allow for additional rails to be mounted if required. The 1P86-1 optic is normally used on the weapon, and the barrel can be changed within a few minutes if needed. A heavy barrel and folding bipod are also available to mount.
