PKB Variant with Spade Grips

I was wondering if anyone on the Internet Movie Firearms Database community has any photos of this rarer variant. It is apparently the same type of weapon used by the former Soviet military and now Russian and other post-Soviet states in their armored vehicles. What makes it unique from the infantry or tank versions is that the PKB machine gun featured spade grips and the thumb button of older machine guns instead of the stock and pistol grip layout. Was at least used since the Soviet-Afghan War of 1979 - 1989 as helicopter weaponry (door and window armament for the Mi-8 and Mi-24 helicopter). Despite frequent use I have not found many details in books or on the web on this variant. Maphisto86 (talk) 00:32, 19 August 2013 (EDT)

Although it is probably a mock up (have heard of people making them out of a PKT with the solenoid replaced by grips from the SG-43) there is one of these in the first set photos for Expendables 3. --commando552 (talk) 04:47, 20 August 2013 (EDT)

Bullpup PKP

I'm not entirely sure this is a good idea o_O

Zenit furniture is cool, in that blocky Russian way--Aidoru (talk) 18:15, 28 August 2015 (EDT)
For making the PKP actually man-portable, I think it's a good idea. Mr. Wolf (talk) 00:49, 1 December 2015 (EST)

Other not-in-site variants

For example how can I tell the difference between a UKM-2000 and a PKM? --Dannyguns (talk) 14:53, 2 December 2016 (EST)
