I only ever saw one 74u and 74 (each) during my entire time overseas, and the squad leaders took those. We ran into a lot of AK-47s and Dragunovs, as well as a few Mosin-Nagants. The 47 (or various copies thereof) were definately the most prevalent RPKs were common, and I fired a "combat pickup" PKM that presented itself. We kept a few captured weapons in our HMMWVs in case they ended up being needed.
