 | | It took its name from the weapons designers Vasily Degtyarev, who designed the original weapon, and Georgi Shpagin, who improved the feed mechanism. |
 | | The first gun the Degtyarev, Krupnocalibernyj (DK, Degtyarev, Large calibre) was built in 1930 and this gun was produced in small quantities from 1933 to 1935. |
