Chapter 799 Pulling the bolt is the romance of a man
There are thirteen new sample guns, seven of which are shotguns. Bolt-action rifles, not counting the difference in bayonets, also have six different models.
Of course, so many models do not mean that Luo Chong really made more than a dozen completely different firearms, but that there are small differences on the same weapon platform.
Take shotguns for example. They all have tubular pump-action magazines, manual loading and reloading, shell ejection through the side window, and ammunition feeding from the bottom. They look similar in appearance, but based on subtle differences, they are divided into three-shot bullpup micro shotguns, and this model is also divided into two versions with internal and external hammers; and a long-barreled bayonet-type seven-shot shotgun with a butt structure, which is also divided into two versions with internal and external hammers; finally, there is a side-mounted bayonet-type hard-stock eight-shot shotgun with the same length of the barrel.
Generally speaking, it is the same mechanical structure, the same shape and caliber. The only difference is the length, the ammunition capacity, and the bayonet installation position. There are even three types of bayonets, but they are not counted as the types of guns. This
includes another bolt-action rifle that is based on the G98. The overall structure of the gun is the same, and it is also the same caliber and appearance, but the different combinations of front sights and rear sights are divided into four types. In addition, there is a difference in straight/bent bolt handles. The only difference is the bayonet style. There is no other difference.
The guns are all the same gun. The reason why so many different models are made is mainly for testing. After evaluating which one is more suitable, they will be finalized and uniformly equipped.
Thirteen different weapons were placed on the table in turn, dazzling the group of guards around. Qubing was able to stand in front of them and pick up a shotgun to play with it.
"Chief, this batch of guns looks much slimmer than your double-barreled shotgun." Qu Bing said while holding the ultra-small three-shot bullpup shotgun.
Indeed, this batch of shotguns all use internal bolts, and the feeding and ejection systems are also compact structures. The previous bulky shooting that realized loading and ejecting by folding the gun body is completely incomparable to this. Military standard weapons, of course, are better as compact and simple as possible, so as to reduce the failure rate and improve the efficiency of use.
"Of course, military standard guns must be optimized. Slim means that the parts are compact, and it can also reduce the weight and reduce the burden on soldiers." Luo Chong commented on the side, and also picked up a gun to look at it.
Qu Bing excitedly held the short three-shot shotgun, trying to find the mechanism to disassemble the gun body, but he didn't find it. He only saw two oval holes on the side and bottom of the rear receiver, but he couldn't find where to load the bullets, and he couldn't help but look a little anxious.
"Chief, where do you load this gun? Why can't the gun be opened?" Qu Bing looked it up and down for a while and asked anxiously.
Luo Chong couldn't help but smile at his anxious look, then took the short gun from his hand and introduced it.
"Look here, the opening below is where the bullet is loaded. You have to put the bullet head in in advance. This short-barreled type can load three bullets at a time. If you put a bullet in the chamber in advance, it will be four."
Luo Chong took three bullets from the basket of bullets next to him, stuffed them in from the loading port below, and then continued to introduce it.
"Then hold the handle with your right hand, grab the handguard with your left hand and pull it back, then push it forward, the bullet will be automatically loaded, and you can fire it now."
Luo Chong began to demonstrate to everyone, pushing and pulling the handguard in front with his left hand, then instantly pulling the trigger and aiming at the target in front of him to fire a shot. Before others could react, he pushed and pulled the handguard in front again, and then fired another shot, and then repeated the same operation again, until all three bullets in the magazine were used up.
The guards were dumbfounded. So this is how to load bullets in a standard shotgun? ! And loading is so simple, just push and pull the handguard in front, and you can fire again. This short and powerful weapon in front of you is enough to crush the shotgun he played with two days ago in terms of loading capacity and power.
Qubing was more like getting a new toy. He picked up another three-shot short gun on the table, and then imitated Luo Chong to load bullets from the bottom, pushing and pulling the handguard, and instantly fired a shot.
But at this time he also discovered the difference between the gun in his hand and Luo Chong's, because the gun used by Qu Bing was an external hammer type, with the hammer exposed at the rear of the receiver. When the handguard was pulled back, two parts would extend from the rear of the receiver.
But in terms of other functions, it was no different from the one in Luo Chong's hand.
"Chief, why are the two we have different?" Qu Bing asked curiously.
"Different? That's right, we made so many different ones just for you to experiment with. You will all try them out later. Which one is safer, more reliable, easier to use, and more convenient, and then we will decide which one to mass-produce."
Luo Chong explained, then picked up the long-barreled seven-shot and eight-shot basins, inserted the bayonet on them, and then said to the group of guards around him.
"Don't just stand there, come and try one out. Don't be afraid of wasting bullets. To finalize a firearm, it has to be shot. I want you to shoot all these guns until they are broken. Also try the bayonets to see which bayonet installation method is more convenient to use."
The guards couldn't wait any longer. After hearing Luo Chong's order, they rushed up and each grabbed a gun and started playing with it.
However, there were only a few new shotguns. Several guards who were close to them grabbed them first, and the others could only stare blankly.
However, the guns that looked longer and had thinner barrels also attracted their attention, but everyone didn't know how to use them, so they were embarrassed for a while.
One of the guards watched others shoot so excitedly that he couldn't help it, so he picked up a slender rifle and asked Luo Chong for advice.
"Chief, I see the size of the muzzle, it should be the rifle you mentioned, how to use it?"
Luo Chong took the rifle with a horizontal bolt handle from his hand, looked it over, raised the gun in front of his eyes and tried to aim, and then asked the technical consultant Hu Jin next to him, "Are the clips I want ready?"
Hu Jin immediately took out a small cloth bag and put it on the table. There was a clattering sound of metal friction in the bag, and then he said, "To the chief, these are temporarily trial-made, there are 500 clips in it."
Luo Chong nodded, then took the bag and poured some onto the table, and said to the guards around him, "Those who don't have a gun, come and learn how to load."
Then he demonstrated to everyone how to load bullets on the clips, and after he made two clips with five bullets by himself, he waved to the guard who asked how to use the rifle just now.
"Come here, watch me operate it."
The guard immediately came over with two clips and a rifle.
"Look carefully, this is called a bolt-action, and this is the charging handle. When using it, hold the handguard with your left hand, grab the charging handle with your right hand, pull it upwards, and then pull it back. At this time, the magazine and the chamber will be open. Then insert the clip into this slot and use your thumb to push all the bullets in. This gun can be loaded with five bullets at a time."
He introduced while demonstrating, and the guards next to him who were loading bullets were listening with their ears perked up.
"Look at the chamber here. After loading the bullet, push the bolt handle forward. At this time, the bullet will be pushed into the chamber by the bolt. Then turn the bolt handle to the right. This completes the locking process, that is, locks the bullet in the chamber to improve the airtightness.
Then look at this at the back. This is the safety. You must pull it open before shooting, otherwise you will not be able to pull the trigger. Turn off the safety when not in use or when marching to avoid accidental discharge. This is very important. Remember it."
All the guards nodded, then picked up the empty guns that were not loaded with bullets and tried them out. They imitated Luo Chong in fiddling with the bolt handle and safety. However, Luo Chong had already raised his gun and aimed at the target.
"Load, chamber, and turn on the safety. Now you can fire. The way to aim is to aim at the target through the front sight and rear sight, and then pull the trigger."
With a bang, a gunshot that was no weaker than a shotgun came from the muzzle of the big bolt in Luo Chong's hand. A flash of fire flashed in front of the muzzle, and wisps of light blue smoke emerged. However, embarrassingly, the targets in front of him did not move at all.
"It's too low," Luo Chong muttered
softly and pulled the bolt again. There was a crisp sound of pulling the bolt, and then the shell was instantly thrown out with a ding, pushing the bolt again to lock.
This time Luo Chong adjusted the height of the rear sight, and then aimed again. After a few seconds, there was another bang.
Everyone still didn't notice any movement in the target in front of them. This was too embarrassing. Is the hit rate of this rifle so low? Or can it not hit anyone at all?
But just when a group of guards looked at each other and remained skeptical of the rifle, Hu Jin, a technical consultant from the Power Research Institute next to him, shouted excitedly with a telescope.
"Captain, I hit it, I hit it. The round target at 350 meters was turned several times. I saw the bullet hole on it."
Luo Chong couldn't help but laugh with satisfaction, and said in his heart, "Pulling the bolt is the romance of men, shotguns are so lame."
The guards around were all dumbfounded.
(＃°Д°)
Oh my god, what did you say just now? 350 meters? And a precise hit? ! ! !
Qubing, who was playing with the shotgun at the side, was also shocked when he heard the shout. He quickly took the telescope on the table and looked at the round steel plate hanging by a rope at a distance of 350 meters. The steel plate painted red was still swinging, and a black spot was clearly visible on it.
He opened his mouth in surprise.
