Not far away is the Texas militia training camp.

The taxi stopped a hundred meters from the training camp, and in front of it was set up to prevent the camp from being attacked by various horse rejections, cement isolation piers and inspection posts. At the gate, which is 10 meters wide and 8 meters high, there is a militia in charge of registration, which is specially for people and tourists who come to shoot for training.

When Zheng Xudong arrived, there were already more than 20 people queuing up to register, these people were couples, adults with children, and tourists from all over the world like him came to try it. No one could be forced under the sight of more than two dozen automatic rifles and the heavy machine guns of Humvee jeeps. When he arrived at Zheng Xudong, he took out his passport and handed it to the soldier at the door, who took the passport and opened it, and scanned the barcode inside on the machine, just like when he passed the security check in civil aviation.

Entering the barracks gate is a wide two-way four-row lane, which is wider than the lanes in the city outside, probably because of the running tank. Then a young man in a suit will introduce you to a guide, and you will have to hire a guide for fear that you will accidentally break into a restricted military area. There is a private guide according to the price, that is, the guide will only take you alone. There are also tour guides who lead a group, and they set off in a group of ten people.

Zheng Xudong asked about the price of a private tour guide, and the young man in a suit told him that the private tour guide was two hundred dollars per hour, which was really not expensive for him, so he asked the man in the suit to recommend one. After a while, a desert camouflage Hummer bulletproof car drove in the distance, and the car stopped ten centimeters in front of the man in the suit, which frightened the man in the suit and took two steps back before stopping. The car door opened and jumped a young female soldier, about 1.7 meters tall, with a shaved head, wearing an army training vest on her upper body, a pistol tattooed on her right arm, training trousers on her lower body, and boots, all of which were desert camouflage colors.

"Mr. Zheng, this is Lieutenant Susan Wilson, Lieutenant, an outstanding officer at our base, this is Mr. Zheng from Huaxia in the coming year, he is here for a tourist, he wants to come to the barracks for firearms training, he wants to be received by a private guide, I have handed over Mr. Zheng to you!"

"Hello, my name is Zheng Xudong, I'm here for a tour, I want to play with firearms here, do you know, man!" After speaking, he stretched out his hand to shake hands.

"Get on!" said Lieutenant Wilson commandingly. Seeing that she didn't stretch out her hand and looked expressionless, Zheng Xudong didn't say anything, and Fan didn't use his hot face to stick to someone's cold buttocks. No nonsense, opened the co-pilot's door, and sat down.

Zheng Xudong sat in a Humvee jeep for the first time, the military Humvee chair is really not very comfortable, the chair is not leather, and the military cannot give you a whole leather, the seat is wrapped in canvas, the back of the chair is also very hard, and there is a steel plate in the backrest to prevent bullets from penetrating and injuring the rear personnel. There are very few entertainment facilities in the car, only the most basic standard equipment.

The Hummer drove along the wide road for five minutes, then turned left and came to a large hangar with the door open and the car drove straight in. According to Zheng Xudong's visual inspection, the entire hangar is more than 6,000 square meters, and it is decorated like an exhibition hall, Lieutenant Wilson prompted him to get off the car, and after getting off the car, Zheng Xudong saw that it was really an exhibition hall, but it was the mainstream weapons used by the United States from the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World War I, and World War II to the present, of course, they were all light weapons of the army. Zheng Xudong was not interested in old-fashioned weapons, so when the cold-faced female lieutenant said that he wanted to introduce him to the history of American weapons here, he was rejected on the spot, what are you kidding, I came to the United States to play, not to receive patriotic education.

Lieutenant Wilson was also happy to hear him say this, at least for nearly forty minutes less than to explain. "Then please follow me!" After saying that, he took him to an elevator entrance, and when he entered the elevator, he found that it was a freight elevator, at least it could easily cram the Hummer Jeep just now. The two of them stood in the elevator and looked a little empty. The female lieutenant pressed a button, "Goo-dong!" The elevator went down, giving people a sense of weightlessness in an instant. Zheng Xudong felt that he was descending for about seven or eight seconds, and it was three stories high before he stopped.

Before the elevator door opened, I heard "Woo。。。 The sound of gunfire, although he couldn't tell what type of gun, he could hear at least a dozen kinds of firearms firing. Coming out of the elevator made Zheng Xudong's eyes suddenly brighten, the underground area was more than ten times that of the above, and there were twenty-five shooting ports in front of him, and more than 20 people were training in shooting.

The cold-faced female lieutenant took Zheng Xudong to a position where there was no one in the middle, and then recruited a male soldier and said a few words in the soldier's ear, Zheng Xudong didn't recognize the rank of the American army, but it seemed that he should be a big soldier. He stood in the shooting position, and to the left was a 32-inch LCD display from DELL at eye level, which showed your shooting results. On the right wooden wall hangs a BOSE sound-isolating earmuff. Zheng Xudong thought it was a headset at first, but after being introduced by the female lieutenant, he learned that it was a soundproof earmuff, which was filled with sound-reducing cotton to prevent the huge gunfire from damaging your diaphragm.

After a while, the GI pushed a large wooden box with a cart, put it down, and left. Lieutenant Leng Mian stood on Zheng Xudong's right hand and opened the box, which contained a handgun spaced with sponges, and she placed the pistols on the shooting table in turn. There were ten of them.

"Say in advance, the pistol is free to use, and the bullet is three dollars for ten rounds. Now let's introduce these ten pistols, which are currently used by more than 80 percent of the world's national military and police departments, or on their improved models, and I will introduce them to you in turn. The cold-faced female lieutenant really didn't say a word of nonsense.

"This first is the Italian Beretta Model 92F pistol. In 1985, the Beretta 92F pistol, developed by the Italian company Beretta, was selected by the U.S. military as a new generation of standard military pistol, and was renamed the M9 pistol in the U.S. military. The gun fires a 9 mm Balabylum round, with a total length of 217 mm, an empty gun weighing 0.96 kg, a muzzle velocity of 333.7 m/s, and an effective range of 50 m. Load: 15 rounds. ”

"This second is the Austrian Glock 17 pistol. In 1983, at the request of the military, the Austrian company Glock successfully developed a unique 9mm pistol. This pistol uses a synthetic material sleeve seat, has a simple structure and is lightweight, and is called the Glock 17 pistol. Today, this gun is used in the armies and police of more than 50 countries around the world, of which the American police alone are armed with Glock pistols for 40% of the total. The Glock 17 pistol fires 9 mm Balabylum pistol rounds, muzzle velocity 360 m / s, the gun is 185 mm long, weighs 0.62 kg, has a barrel length of 114 mm, has a magazine capacity of 17 (or 19) rounds, and has an effective range of 50 meters. ”

"This third is the American Colt M2000 pistol. In 1911, the American Colt Company produced the M1911 pistol, which was soon installed in the U.S. Army and withstood the test of World War I. After the end of World War I, on the basis of the M1911, after careful improvement, the M1911A1 pistol was successfully developed, which has been installed in the US military for 70 years, until 1985, when the US military re-selected the gun, the Beretta 92F pistol developed by the Italian Beretta company took away the production rights. The disgraced Colt Company was not depressed, and in April 1991, the Colt Company purchased a new pistol developed and designed by the famous firearms designers Reid Knight and Eugene Stoner, and named it the Colt M2000 pistol. The gun fires 9 mm Balabylum rounds, the total length of the gun is 190.5 mm, the total weight of the gun is about 0.82 kg, the barrel length is 114.3 mm, the magazine capacity is 15 rounds, and the effective range is 50 meters. ”

"This fourth is the Huaxia QSG92 pistol. In 1998, the QSG92 pistol was finalized, which fires DAP 9 mm pistol cartridges and can also fire Balabylum rounds, with a total length of 199 mm, a total gun mass of 0.76 kg, a barrel length of 111 mm, and a 15-round double-row double-feed magazine with an effective range of 50 meters. ”

"This fifth is an American M1911A1-style pistol. The M1911A1 pistols produced by the Colt Gunsmith Company have been installed in the US military for 70 years, and have had a profound impact on the development of pistols in the US military and the world. Although in 1985, after the U.S. military re-selected guns, the M1911A1 was "disarmed and returned to the field", its unique structural design is still admirable. The gun fires 0.45 in (11.43 mm) Colt pistol cartridges, the gun has a total length of 216 mm, a total gun weight of 1.13 kg, a barrel length of 127 mm, and a 7-round magazine feed, with an effective range of 50 meters. ”

"The sixth gun is... "The seventh gun is... "The eighth gun is... "The ninth gun is... "The tenth gun is... ”

Zheng Xudong was really enthusiastic when he saw these pistols, and there were two M1911A1-style pistols and two Beretta 92F pistols in his space. He patiently listened to the cold-faced female lieutenant's explanation.

Susan Wilson, 28 years old, had just come down from the Middle East battlefield and was discriminated against and sexually harassed by male soldiers on the battlefield. She was influenced by the blood and integrity of the soldiers inherited in the family, and she was a person with strong military ability, who retired from the battlefield, and the commander saw that she still had some military talent, so he arranged her here, with an easy job, a relatively high salary, and extra money. Today is her first day to receive tourists, she feels that she is a soldier who should serve the country on the battlefield, shed blood and sacrifice, and should not be a tour guide for these tourists here, so she didn't give Zheng Xudong a good face. But when she saw Zheng Xudong's humble and teachable appearance, she felt that she was respected, and the explanation became more and more detailed, and the more she spoke. Several times she asked Zheng Xudong to repeat what she said before, and Zheng Xudong was able to say it word for word.

"Let's talk about how to hold the gun and how to shoot it. ”
