K12/K16D

Category
Law enforcement, small arms and protection
The 7.62mm K12 (subsequently renamed K16D in 2020) is a machine gun developed by S&T; Motiv (now SNT Motiv) for use as a pintle-mounted weapon on the Republic of Korea Army’s new KAI KUH-1 Surion utility helicopter. The K12 is based on the K3’s design, layout and function using a gas piston and rotating bolt. It is fed through a STANAG M13 disintegrating belt link. The cross-bolt type safety is the same as the K3 with a receiver made from steel press, with an aluminium alloy feed
cover.
