SiChuan Copied KE7 machine gun

It was, once again, local warlord Liu Xiang who imported machinery and equipment to replicate the KE7 light machine gun. Compared with the original KE7 model, this variant features round cooling holes and an added shoulder stock pad; otherwise, it is nearly identical to the original KE7. I believe this would be the perfect New Year gift for players for the 2027 Spring Festival.

(To cut costs, the film crew fired blank rounds directly using genuine antique firearms.)

(The factory that reproduced this machine gun originally minted copper coins, hence it bears a copper coin emblem.)

Would you like the replicated KE7 to be added to the Allied forces in the game?

Okay, but the video is entirely in Chinese with no English subtitles.

Are you talking about the U.S.A/British or the Soviets when you mean allies?

Either is fine, but in classic Chinese TV dramas, this weapon was used by the Chinese Expeditionary Force

Another video straight from China. At the 3:20 mark, a Chinese-made SIG Ke7 appears. By the way, its magazine capacity is only 10 rounds.

If anyone knows, the Chinese used this machine gun against Japan.
Combat use: The KE-7 was one of the main light machine guns of the Chinese National Revolutionary Army during the initial period of the war with Japan (from 1937).

Gradual Displacement: By 1943–1945, the surviving KE-7s began to gradually fade into the background. American machine guns (such as the M1919 Browning and BAR automatic rifles), supplied by the Allies under Lend-Lease via India and the Himalayas (“The Hump”), began arriving en masse.

I know I have a record of suggesting Chinese guns for Japan, but Im actually looking for a cool weapon to suggest for the legendary 88th Division, that was among the best performing Chinese units of the anti-Japanese war.

This SVT magazine is purely cosmetic and has not been modified for 7.92 caliber; the original 25-round magazine for the firearm is missing.

i dont think we need even more factions useing KE 7.
If we contiue like that then everyone regardless of faction will have access to the KE 7 which isnt exactly great if you want factions to feel diffrent from another.

I would only be ok with it belonging to a Chinese premium/event squad that served with the Allies in Burma. But no RT
