This idea is great!
It would be epic to be pinnedd down by a DShKM and be forced to flank it and call in CAS.

That's exactly what I said. 2 DShKMs and unlimited PKM deployables... unless you mean you want PKMs restricted, too. Besides, DShKM's are easier to find than you think, they just are harder to obtain by insurgents. Taliban, it's a breeze. I recall seeing a picture of a weapon cache that had like 5 DShKMs in a pile.

Another choice would be to make them on the same stand or on a similar stand like that of the techie 50 cal. They could be used as AA, fully rotable and with a restricted negative elevation. Anyways, if there are any 50 cals, there would not be any need of protection or sandbags.
Turnable... yes all HMG's must be turnable, or else they're just retarded pieces of metal. About the stand, I think it would be best to just have a tall tripod with no cover. About AA, that would be really useful, but it might make the game kind of unrealistic (I'm speaking in Western Imperialist/Capitalist Terms), as the Insurgents/Taliban would be able to shoot any helicopter/plane by simply deploying one of these bad boys.
