An older gent I know has 2 semi belt feds for sale plus a pan drum DP 28. He has a US Ordnance M1919 with spade grips and tripod, a Keeter Creek Machine Polish DP 28 M with accessories and a DSA built RPD. Reviews seem to be inconsistent depending on the web sites you read and he's asking 2k for each but is willing to bundle 2 for $3500. All of these are a few years old and have never been fired by the old guy so we don't know how well they run. I know nothing about semi belt feds but this is a offer I can't pass up. I'm going to post a poll.
PS I'm aware the DP isn't belt fed.

I have an RPD. It's cool. I think I would rather have a DP28.
You can't go wrong. 7.62 x 39 is certainly the easiest and cheapest to shoot. |

Parts are easy to find and still reasonable to buy. It may take 100 rounds are so to bear it in. Buy Israeli links and have at it. |

I think you made the right choices. I don't have much info about those semi-auto versions, but I love my Polish RPD. It's very fun and cheap to shoot.

Nice.
I've never fired a DP 28 but I think I'd favor the RPD. SGAmmo can ship you a lot of 7.62x39 real quick. DSA also makes a quad rail for it if you want to add modern accessories. |

The RP46 belt feed conversion by SMG will most definitely make that DP28 run belts :)

My dad bought an Ohio Rapid Fire 1919 about 15 years ago. It was a total POS and we had to replace all the internals with KMP designed parts to get it to run right.
The sear was a thin piece of sheet metal riveted to the original full auto sear which had the ears ground off. The rear sight base was bent, barrel jacket was drilled wrong for the barrel jacket screw, and the breech cam in the bottom of the receiver was way too loose. I would not buy the Ohio Rapid Fire 1919 unless you inspect it and verify that the internals are KMP machined parts. |
