Chapter 544: Machine Gun

PS: Again, the following are personal bad tastes.........

-------------------------

Because it happened to coincide with the day when the fishing boats went to sea, when they first came out of Coral Temple Island, there were many ships on the sea, but in the end, Darren and they were going to the Coral Spiral, which was different from the course of other ships, so after half a day, there was only one boat left as far as the eye could see, the "Trident".

At this time, Shirley Young began to direct the crowd to train according to her standard in the U.S. Navy, saying that sailing at sea is not more than land, and all members must be required to merge into a well-trained whole, and in the event of an accident or danger, only all members can cooperate. Only then can it be possible to turn the danger into a disaster.

Of course, Darren had no opinion on this, but when he began to practice the operation of the Water God Cannon, Darren beckoned to Wang Fatzi, "Lao Wang, do me a favor and follow me to the cabin to get something." ”

Up to now, everyone is no longer surprised that Darren is a white-skinned but proficient in Chinese culture, so it is not surprising that Wang Fatzi heard him called "Lao Wang", as for Darren, this guy can't live next door to him anyway......

"Take something?" the fat man was a little strange, "What to take, dry food? You're hungry so soon?"

"......," Darren glanced at him, "you still plan to go into the Coral Spiral, do you know what's in the sea?

"Didn't you load all that field rations?"

Darren and Wang Fatzi had such a quarrel, and Hu Jianjun also came around, "Old Xiao, you are wrong, since you are on a boat, then they are all in a group, and you don't have too many things, of course we don't have to worry about it," under the influence of Wang Fatzi, now they all call Darren like this.

But Shirley Yang had some idea, "It's going to be on that stand, right?"

When preparing the ship on Coral Temple Island, Darren deliberately asked the owner to find someone to bolt a large steel plate on the foredeck, and then nail a bracket, although the others felt strange, but in view of the fact that it was not troublesome, and it could be used as a handrail after going to sea, they didn't ask much, only Shirley Yang looked at the top structure of the bracket for a long time, of course she couldn't see it, because it was only a semi-finished product, and it had to cooperate with the locking mechanism.

With the help of the fat man, Darren took out a large box more than a meter long from the cabin and placed it on the deck, which was indeed no different from other boxes containing field rations from the outside, but when it was opened, the people around them gasped, because what they saw was a huge machine gun.

"This is the Browning .50 machine gun," Shirley Young blurted out, a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, who was of course very familiar with this old gun, which had been fighting with the U.S. military for nearly a century, and the square receiver and thick and long barrel had almost become one of the representatives of the U.S. military.

"Yes," Darren nodded, and as he took out the locking piece that matched the bracket from the side of the case, combined it with the bracket, and then picked up the machine gun and mounted it on it, so that, except for the part that was obscured by the cockpit, it obtained a considerable degree of circumferential fire, which was larger than the range of the two water cannons.

For some reason, the "Undertaker System" cannot be used in the Coral Spiral, so Darren is also worried that his magically modified weapons will also encounter the same problem, so he chooses conventional ammunition as much as possible, but due to the limitations of the "Trident" hull, I am afraid that the 12.7mm machine gun is already the carrying limit, which is the result of his strengthening of the deck.

In fact, relatively speaking, the Browning .50 machine gun did not satisfy him, because the basic design of this old gun was too early, resulting in its weight being too large, and the rate of fire was not high, although there was a high rate of fire model, but the barrel was also very easy to overheat, considering the fire continuity, so Darren still used a low-speed model, but this machine gun has an advantage, that is, it is equipped with more types of ammunition, compared with another 12.7 mm caliber ammunition power is more advantageous, so that Darren has no choice after seeing those big fish.

For example, the main ammunition selected by Darren for the .50 machine gun this time is the NM-140 Multipurpose designed by Nammo of Norway, which is later finalized as Mk211 Mod0 by the U.S. military, and is often called "Raufoss" (Raufoss) according to the location of the design company, this warhead has the quadruple damage effect of armor-piercing, blasting, fragmentation and ignition at the same time!

Its warhead comprises a steel sleeve made of mild steel that fixes the tungsten core, on the one hand, it can avoid the wear and tear of the gun barrel when embedded in the rifling due to the excessive overall hardness of the warhead, and the soft steel sleeve also produces most of the effective fragments when the charge explodes; the outside of the soft steel sleeve is a layer of traditional copper armor, and the tail is closed with a lead plug, so that the warhead is fixed as a whole; and the tip part of the bullet in the armor is also filled with mixed incendiary and blasting charge, which can produce arson and blasting effects; finally, there is a small amount of zirconium powder between the steel sleeve and the tungsten core, which is easy to ignite, Long burning time, good ignition effect, in order to provide a larger range and longer ignition effect, Darren is afraid that he will not be able to kill those big guys, and he has a large-caliber machine gun, and it is equipped with such a murderous ammunition, in addition, in order to improve the hit rate, this guy uses tracer bullets with tracer function, although the accuracy will be relatively poor, but considering the possible use distance is still acceptable.

In addition, this guy also considered that if all armor-piercing explosive incendiary bombs were used, in case the skin of the target to be dealt with was too thin, resulting in the warhead not being able to detonate, the killing effect would be reduced, so he also mixed other bullets on the bullet chain, but what could make Darren take a fancy to it would naturally not be ordinary ammunition......

In the 50s of the last century, the U.S. military was equipped with a 106mm recoilless gun as a battalion-level anti-tank weapon, because the ranging and aiming device at that time was really not very powerful, so at that time a .50 caliber test gun was installed directly above the body barrel of the recoilless gun, when the shooter finished aiming, he could use the test gun to test fire a shot, if it hit, it means that the aim is correct, and the gun can be fired, and with it, it is a special tracer tracer bullet, which is filled with a special pyrotechnic agent that can burst out bright flashes and a large amount of white smoke at the tip of the bullet, and the tip is a fire cap to ensure that even a large angle of wiping can also fire normallyHowever, this design also means that if the target is very soft, it will not only have to withstand the scorching effect of pyrotechnic agents, but it may even burn deep inside!

In contrast, the last type of ammunition is relatively simple, a pure tracer bullet, but it uses a tracer that burns faster and is three times brighter than an ordinary tracer bullet, which was originally a tracer bullet used by the bomber formation to defend against machine guns in World War II, so as to increase the psychological pressure of the enemy fighter pilots in the interception bomber formation, because it looks like a basketball on fire after hitting it! And Darren also planned to do the same, "Maybe the big guys who need to deal with will be scared away by this thing"? Of course, because of the excessive amount of tracer, the cauterizing effect after hitting the target is also obvious.

The above three types of ammunition were mixed on the chain by Darren according to the ratio of 3:1:1, in short, if it was swept away, the hard leather would be bombed, the soft leather would be burned, and the soft leather would be burned, and if it was not soft or hard, it might be blown up and burned......
