254 New Sniper Rifle with Tactical Rail (Updated with Yesterday's Guarantee)
"Got drawings?" Xie Kai was a little skeptical.
He went to the firearms research institute with Zheng Yucheng in the morning, but he didn't see anything related to the design at all, not a single drawing, not a single sample, and nothing.
"In the repair workshop. For Xie Kai, Han Weidong did not show closeness or rejection, which made Xie Kai very content.
"Okay, the guns are left here, let's go back first, and then someone will bring over the other guns that need to be repaired. He Chao was sure that Xie Kai was not playing with guns by himself, and when he saw that there was nothing wrong with them, he asked the people from the gun repair shop to give them a note.
Both sides have done such things, and the handover procedures are indispensable.
Otherwise, if something goes wrong, it's troublesome.
Guns, whether they have bullets or not, must be strictly managed.
"Lao Wang, you take them to the gun repair workshop, Xiao Xie will follow suit, and you will be responsible for this matter in the future. Zheng Yucheng said to Xiao Manzhi and the others who were waiting for his orders.
At the same time, he also told a few people that Xie Kai would be responsible for their firearms research in the future.
Xie Kai was a little embarrassed, Zheng Yucheng was roasting himself on the fire again?
A bunch of old men don't even care about Zheng Yucheng, will they take care of themselves?
"Director Han, Deputy Director Xiao, just tell me if you have any orders in the future, I will do chores for you and help run errands. I don't know anything about firearms or anything. Xie Kai said modestly to a few people.
Several people looked at him with complicated expressions, didn't say anything, nodded, and walked outside.
Wang Guilin walked with Han Weidong and Xiao Manzhi on the side, exchanging something in a whisper, and the two looked back at Xie Kai who was following behind from time to time.
Xie Kai wanted to find a topic to communicate with several technicians behind him, but he couldn't find a suitable topic for a while.
The firearms repair workshop is located in the northwest corner of the headquarters building, a few hundred meters from the headquarters building, which was originally the place where the base's research units were concentrated.
Avant-garde missiles, 359 tank projects are all on this side.
Inside a gate without any signs outside, there is a Soviet-style factory building, Xie Kai often passes by, and he rarely sees this side open door, thinking that it is an abandoned workshop.
But I didn't expect that when I entered the inside of the workshop, I found that there was a hole inside.
Unlike other research institutes, there is a separate office area and a processing experiment area, and the desks in the office area are full of various drawing tools and drawings, which are very neatly arranged.
On the wall around an office area of more than 100 square meters, there are many firearms, 56 semi-automatic, 56 submachine guns, 53 machine guns, etc., you can see the shadows.
There are even quite a few firearms that Western countries were equipped with decades ago.
For example, the M1932 7.63 Mauser automatic pistol, the Belgian 9mm high-power Browning semi-automatic pistol, and the American M3 submachine gun.
"Most of these guns were used during World War II, and they were also used by our army on the Korean battlefield......" Seeing that Xie Kai was interested in the various firearms hanging on the surrounding walls, Xiao Manzhi didn't know when he was standing beside him, and whispered to Xie Kai.
"Made in all nations?" Xie Kai asked.
"So to speak, the logistical pressure on our troops was very high back then, and it was not easy to repair firearms. Xiao Manzhi nodded and said, "It wasn't until the end that we developed a 56-gun family in China and realized a comprehensive redress, and the situation was improved." ”
When the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea broke out, New China had just been founded.
At that time, the equipment of New China was the most mottled in the whole world, after all, there was no industrial base in China, and there was no large-scale processing capacity.
The main weapons were captured from the battlefield, and some rifles could be produced themselves.
Jiang Guangtou's troops are full of factions, weapons and equipment come from all over the world, that is, some warlord factions that can produce their own weapons, and their production lines are also from all over the world.
"These guns don't have much effect on the current firearms design in our country, right?" Xie Kai didn't understand that firearms design research should find the latest firearms to study the technology used by others.
"How can it not be useful? The technology used in any weaponry is constantly evolving. We have very little foundation and experience in these aspects in our country, even the Type 56 gun family, all products are imitations of Soviet products......" Han Weidong also came to Xie Kai's side.
"Isn't our unit using the 81 automatic rifle now? Although it has some flaws, it is a relatively good infantry weapon. Xie Kai said.
The two looked at him, but they also understood that Xie Kai was not modest when he said that he didn't understand guns.
"Relatively speaking, the 81 automatic rifle is already very good, after all, it is a transitional rifle that was designed and finalized in a short period of time after our domestic mission was issued. It has the intensive firepower of 56 submachine guns and the accuracy of 56 semi-automatic rifles...... "For the Type 81 automatic rifle, Han Weidong and others also have a deep research.
Xie Kai had a hard time understanding these things.
Knowledge is not hated when it is used.
The shortcomings of the Type 81 rifle or something, he really didn't know.
The only thing that is known is that the 81 rifle inherited the durability of domestic weapons and equipment, the characteristics of reliability is not bad, and more importantly, it is cheap!
"The special operations forces of the garrison regiment need not only high-precision long-range sniper rifles, but also automatic rifles with better performance. Xie Kai was ready to change the subject.
Talking to professionals about their areas of expertise, as a reborn, can be very stressful.
Especially since he didn't know much about it at all.
So, I can only talk to them about something else.
"The Type 79 sniper rifle, if it has undergone a lot of professional training, has a lot of experience, and at a distance of four hundred meters, the accuracy is very reliable. Han Weidong looked at Xie Kai and said.
Xie Kai looked at him with a smile on his face.
He knows Han Weidong's subtext, the problem of 79 snipe, everyone knows it.
"The most advanced top-level sniper rifle in the world, within 100 yards, the shooting accuracy is 1 arc minute, that is, the impact point dispersion range within 100 yards is 2.9 centimeters in diameter...... The highest precision of our imitation has also reached 3 arc minutes, which is much worse than the 2 arc minutes of the Soviet Union, plus the assembly accuracy, etc., most of our accuracy ranges are about 5 arc minutes......," Xie Kai said.
Theoretical stuff, he knew.
The two looked at him in amazement.
"I'm also listening to comrades used by the troops!" Xie Kai explained, "So, at a distance of two hundred meters, the requirements for snipers are very high." In addition, the scope equipped with only 4 times, and due to the large gap between the projection of the gun and the dovetail groove of the scope, the toothed nut on the scope cannot adjust the set wrench to the appropriate degree. The recoil and vibration generated during the firing process often loosen the scope......"
These shortcomings, the front-line troops use 79 semi-automatic sniper rifles, such problems were reflected from the very beginning.
Otherwise, there would be no re-typing of the 79 sniper to the 85 sniper.
Rao is like this, and the 85 sniper did not fundamentally solve the problem, so the 88 sniper appeared in the end.
"We also want to solve this problem, but we have never thought of a suitable solution. Xiao Manzhi nodded and said.
"Didn't you say there was an improvement plan before?" Xie Kai asked.
He thought the technicians had a good plan for improvement.
That way, he wouldn't have to take the risk of coming up with a solution for the Type 88 sniper rifle.
That kind of scheme seems a little strange in this day and age.
"The improvements are all other problems, even the improvement of the scope. According to our current state of technology, we can develop a zoom sight of 3~9 times. ”
Xie Kai was immediately overjoyed, "Can the problem of the scope be solved?"
"As long as our optical production unit can develop lenses that meet our requirements, there is no problem. ”
"What about the infrared night vision sight?" Xie Kai asked further.
The optical system is a weak point in China, although it has a very good foundation in China before, and Carl Zeiss optical technology was introduced in China before the founding of the People's Republic of China.
However, the 298 factory carrying this technology has become a talent training unit for the domestic optical system, and a large number of technical backbones have been dispersed after training, which has limited the development.
"There are also design drawings that the optical research team at our base can solve under artisanal production conditions. ”
In this way, Xie Kai was relieved.
There are nine-level fitters in the base, and the assembly accuracy does not need to be considered, and the machining accuracy is not a problem.
Everything is complete.
All that is needed is an improved design of the programme.
Without waiting for Xie Kai's request, Han Weidong took out one of their improved 79 sniper rifle assembly design drawings, and pointed to some of the improvements above to introduce the situation to Xie Kai.
The only thing that can't be solved is the gap between the scope and the gun.
The scope is unstable, and the shooting accuracy naturally cannot be solved.
On the Type 79 sniper rifle, it is also impossible to install an infrared magnifying scope that can be used for night vision.
"What if we add a tactical rail to the sniper rifle? The scope is not directly combined with the gun, but through the tactical rail, so that the problem of combining the scope with the gun body can be avoided......," Xie Kai said, pointing to the position where the rifle and the scope are combined.
The installation of tactical rails can not only solve the problem of poor combination of mirror and gun, but also realize modular design, and at the same time be equipped with modules such as thermal imaging night vision in series.
That way, it's a lot easier.
This is not the solution that Xie Kai thought of, but the method used by the 88 snipers, who are equipped with a large number of troops, and the effect is also good.
If this were not the case, with some problems of the 88 sniper, the troops would not have been able to be equipped all the time.
The 88 sniper is the only small-caliber sniper rifle in the world that is mounted on the troops.
Xie Kai brought it up like this, which made everyone interested, and they began to compare on the drawings.
The design of the tactical rails, no one had thought about them before.
"In this way, because there are more tactical rails, the assembly accuracy is too poor, and the performance will also be affected. Manual production, which will increase the cost to a very terrifying level, it is impossible to deploy troops in large quantities. "It does work with tactical rails.
However, this requires higher production accuracy and assembly accuracy.
