Description
A semi original weapon I made for my imperial world.

The Krasnikov Mk VII Autogun belongs to the Astra Militarum regiments of Kray Mira, though it is mostly used by it's Planetary Defense Force.
It is a selective-fire Auto Weapon designed to serve as a cheap and dependable firearm for urban combat and Hab-Block raids, which must combine a high rate of fire with high stopping power. This pattern was created shortly after the formation of the Cicatrix Maledictum and quickly became one of the most popular Auto Weapons on the planet. This weapon is know for its simple and modular construction which make almost as reliable as the venerable Lasgun, making it ideal for trainees considered to be "green" to handle proper Las Weapons. It has many different variations, factory-made and otherwise, some of which are modified to serve as "squad automatic weapons", having a rate of fire of between 600 and 900 RPM. It possesses a simple fire selector allowing the user to fire single shots, three round bursts or fully automatic streams. The oversized rounds that this weapon uses give it an excessive recoil and muzzle flash, but also excellent damage capabilities. To compensate for its recoil, the barrel has had a counter-weight added to try to counteract the weapon's tendency to rise off-target during automatic fire. While testing confirmed the counter-weight did aid accuracy, it also added to the weapon's considerable weight. This pattern only includes iron sights mounted along the top of the weapon. Even the lowest-tech factories can produce this weapon, making it a common sight among civilians feeling the need to defend themselves. Because of their availability, Krasnikov Autoguns are often used by chaos cults, hive gangers and common criminals.
Like any other Auto Weapon, the Krasnikov Mk VII uses caseless ammo with projectiles made of metal, plastic and/or ceramics, and can be fed via double or quad stack magazines. Additionally, it can fire a large variety of ammunition types, such as incendiary rounds, explosive micro-shrapnel, bolt rounds, ripper darts, solid slugs and stun shells.

As with my previous post, it's kinda inspired on the Soviet Union and modern day Russia. Hope you like it!
