Where can I start looking for the parts?

Do a google search for RPD parts kit and you'll find a few people that have/sell them.
Military gun supply e-sarcoinc centerfire systems all the usual mil surp places. Just be aware some kits don't include the barrels and some include U.S. made barrels. Project guns is doing another run of builds as soon as he gets the receivers in stock. He already has my parts kit and mine will be built in his next run. I can't friggin wait! |

Sit tight, hold the fort, keep the home fires burning. And if we're not back by dawn...call the president.

Matching numbers Polish RPD with original chrome lined barrel. Receiver refinished in Molyresin semi-gloss black, the rest of it was left untouched (finish was nearly in like-new condition). Interesting note: low digit serial number ends in 666... The Devil's RPD? Built by Meridian Ordnance LLC

Got a second RPD. Had seven (Soviet/Chinese) to choose from. This one made in the Soviet Union in 1951.

Most sources I'm finding state that large scale delivery of the weapon did not begin until 1953. I suspect the Soviets mass produced them for a few years prior, so they'd have enough inventory to replace the DP as they fielded them. Some sources split the variants into distinct types, like with the AK47, but others just have brief descriptions of variants. This is the best source I found: https://books.google.com/books?id=uYgyBwAAQBAJ&pg=PT9&lpg=PT9&dq=rpd+type+iii+non+reciprocating&source=bl&ots=4XZSj0yMse&sig=ACfU3U26CTlIxpHvK0xWq0QU-aPJ2887Zg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjZ_5Ger9rhAhUJQq0KHUPsC9EQ6AEwDXoECAoQAQ#v=onepage&q=rpd%20type%20iii%20non%20reciprocating&f=false Attached File This seems to be one of the latest variants (Chinese). I believe it has the folding magazine bracket, since it doesn't appear to be riveted to the bottom. |
