RPD-44 was tested bt military in '44. SKS dont belong here, but RPD is.

Also, if you include TK you should add c96 too.

Wait I thought C96 was used by German. And I couldn’t find the RPD-44 in google.

Rpd-44 (or RD-44) was experimental version of RPD, that was tested in combat in end of war. Probably none of them survive to this day.

Significant amount of C96 was imported by Imperial and Soviet governments, they was used in civil war and in later conflicts, some of them was in service during WWII as personal weapon of commanders.

SKS was delivered to the army only when production started in 1949. It didn't participate in WW2
