Hello. What do you think of my experimental attachment for this machine gun? I think it would be very useful in combat.

I prefer to refer to the circular pan magazine of the DPM light machine gun (Degtyaryov pattern, chambered in 7.62x54mmR) as the dinner plate. It is for serving fresh food, not fresh beats.

Operational Use and Adaptability

One of the standout features of the PKM is its versatility on the battlefield. It serves multiple roles, including as a light machine gun, a medium machine gun when mounted on vehicles or tripods, and even as an infantry support weapon. Its design allows for quick barrel changes to prevent overheating during prolonged engagements, ensuring sustained combat effectiveness.

Impact and Influence

AVS-36 - 7.62x54mmR

[frogblast-the-ventcore]

"Mare's leg" is a specific term for an extremely shortened lever action rifle. It's essentially the lever-action version of an obrez, usually the pistol-caliber Winchester Model 1892 (since that allows for the most ammunition in the shortened form factor, a larger caliber lever action might hold only a pair or three of rounds).

"Obrez" generally refers to a cut-down version of a bolt action rifle, firing full-power rifle ammunition, such as 7.62x54mmR, 8mm Mauser, .303 British, etc (nowadays sometimes known as "battle rifle" cartridges).

Two terms for the same sort of modification, for different types of weapons. "Mare's leg" for lever guns, "obrez" for bolt actions.

PSL-54

Romanian built semi-automatic rifle chambered in 7.62x54mmR, the PSL-54 is often compared to the more famous Russian SVD Dragunov. Though they share a similar silhouette, they share almost no parts compatibility aside from being able to use the same side-rail optics. Being a stamped receivers as opposed to a milled receiver, the PSL is easier to manufacture, requiring less machining than its Russian counterpart. When they originally hit the U.S civilian market, they were often marketed and even labeled as Dragunovs; a somewhat misleading attempt by importers to cash in on a famous name. You could at one point snag one of the Century imports for around $650 before they suddenly disappeared from importation for several years. Only recently have they come back but at almost double the price. (GRH)

So, who killed Olga and Fina?

As usual, when a new volume is released, Noda edits the chapters in it which often results in us getting additional info.

In this case Noda added a scene which implies how Tsurumi somehow recovered the bullet which killed his wife and child.

I’ve not the translation of the additional parts yet but, as you can see, the bullet recovered is tiny.

Now, which were the weapons being used by the people involved in the fight?

Kiro was using a machine gun.

My speculation is this one is a Maxim gun.

It works with plenty of cartridges: 7x57mm Mauser, .303 British, .30-06 Springfield, 7.92x57mm Mauser, .577/450 Martini–Henry, 7.62x54mmR.

Sofia has a rifle.

My speculation is this one is a Berdan II (M1870) rifle.

It also works with plenty of cartridges: 10.75×58 mmR; 24 gram paper-patched round nose lead bullet, 5 gram black powder; cartridge also known as .42 Berdan or 4.2 Line Berdan, 7.62×54mmR 

Wilk has a gun and yes, although in the magazine version we don’t see him using it, in the volume version he does so more than once.

My speculation is this one is an early Nagant model.

It’s hard to find info on early Nagant models as web tend to cite the much more popular Nagant M1895.

The problem is the Russian emperor was murdered in 1881 and Kiro said they met Hasegawa around 10 years after, which would make the year be 1891. Sure, he’s not exactly precise so it can be we’re a little after it but in 1893 Tsurumi was back in Japan grooming Usami so at most it can be 1892, hence Nagant M1895 wouldn’t be produced yet.

So the Nagant models which existed in that time period were the Belgian M1878 and M1878-86 in 9.4mm, the Norwegian M1883 in 7.5mm, the Swedish M1887 in 7.5mm, the Serbian M1891 in 7.5mm, the Brazilian M1893 in .44 caliber and several others.

I’ll speculate more and say that’s probably a Swedish Nagant M1887 revolver in 7.5mm because visually seems to match more to that one. It’s still hard to say as the draws don’t show it perfectly.

It’s worth to note the secret police too is apparently using the same type of gun Wilk is using.

Now... I'm not a cartridge expert but the catridges for the gun Wilk had and the rifle Sofia had are different.

The visual implies Tsurumi thinks of Wilk as he watches the bullet, not of Sofia.

So, if Tsurumi holds Wilk accountable for Fina and Olga’s death and not Sofia, who instead hold herself accountable, it means the cartridge he pulled out was the one of a gun, not of a rifle.

The only thing that can be said at this point is it’s possible it wasn’t Wilk who shoot them but the escaping Russian secret policeman. As he too had the same gun and remained out of sight he could have done so, maybe mistaking her for another partisan... although, to be honest, the problem would be Sofia would have heard the shoot.

Tsurumi might have done the same reasoning and figure that, if Sofia felt responsible it meant she didn’t hear the soldier shooting at Fina and Olga... but she hadn’t shoot them herself either as the bullet was wrong.

So he blames Wilk... because it’s psychologically better than blame himself. He caused the whole situation, he caused it with his spy work, with continuing to giving lessons to Wilk and Co once he learnt who they were, with being discovered, with not managing to persuade Fina to stay away, with giving to Kiro his Maxim gun so they could fight better.

Whoever shot Fina and Olga clearly didn’t mean to kill just a random woman and a baby, it was done in the heat of the battle as they were exchanged for enemies.

Tsurumi deep down knows that Fina and Olga died DUE TO HIM and it doesn’t really matter who fired the bullet, HE was the reason due to which it was fired. It’s just the pain it’s probably too big and he can’t cope.

Well, for a loving father it should be a terrible agony to lose his own child... and if he feels he is the cause of his own loss it should feel even worse.

Anyway, we’ll see if more info will come up, be them from Noda, from translators or from cartridges experts!
