A semi original weapon I made for my imperial world.

The Nikolev Mk III 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. It is often employed in high-risk operations, which must combine high damage output with versatility and reliability. This weapon is known to have a ridiculously high rate of fire of 2000 RPM, or 33 rounds a second, but its rate of fire in normally adjustable to some 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.
Like any other Auto Weapon, the Nikolev 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!
