Interesting facts of DP-28
The DP-28 is an LMG in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, it starts out holding 47 rounds and shoots the 7.62 caliber. It is the second LMG of its class and the only LMG that can be found outside of a crate drop. The DP-28 shoots 7.62 rounds and has a drum mag that holds 47 rounds, it also does a good amount of damage, allowing you to kill many players before having to reload. Unfortunately, reloading is what can kill you if you are cornered, for the gun has a 7-second reload time just like the M249. It can only hold one weapon slot, a scope all the way up to the 6X scope. The recoil of the weapon is okay if you are aiming but uncontrollable if free-firing, thankfully, when prone, a bi-pod will deploy and cut down recoil, again, however, the weapon is not meant for sniping and thus the bi-pod has questionable usage.
The DP-28 is a light machine gun type weapon in BATTLEGROUNDS. Manufactured in Russia, its Russian name is ‘Пулемёт Дегтярёвa Пехотный Pulemyot Degtyaryova Pekhotny,’ translating to ‘Degtyaryov’s infantry machine gun.’
“A Russian made, inter-war era light machine gun chambered for 7.62mm.”

SUMMARY
A slow but hard hitting machine gun, its distinctive 47-round pan magazine strikes a balance between the firepower of a full-power cartridge with the support capability of a machine gun. Its slow cyclic rate of fire means that its relatively strong recoil is somewhat manageable. Being a vintage weapon, it lacks attachments, being only capable of accepting sights up to the 6x scope, allowing greatly increased range for supporting fire.
The bipod can be enabled by going prone, greatly reducing recoil compared to firing from a standing or crouched position, allowing more precise shots against distant targets.
The DP-28 will deal maximum damage out to 50 meters, with damage falling off out to 298 meters, at which point bullets will do minimum damage.
