Not to be too much of a nerd, but the original photo is a PKM (Pulemyot Kalashnikova Modernizirovanniy). Note the lighter, unfluted barrel behind the gas block. For some reason the Iraqis insist on calling them PKCs though. Maybe Arabic for "modernized" translates with a "C" sound?

Just as a note: it fires extremely well from the hip. I would prefer one to an M240B any day.
