Chapter 190: A good baby at the bottom of the box
Bob seemed more excited than Gao Yang, and he said excitedly, "What baby, can make you so excited?" Jack, don't sell it, tell us quickly. β
Jack made a gesture of waiting and walked briskly out of his lounge, and a few minutes later, Jack returned with a large iron rod in his hand.
Although it was an iron rod, Jack felt like a fragile glass object in his hand, and he carefully stretched the iron rod forward, saying, "Guys, look what this is." β
Bob shrugged his shoulders and said with a nonchalant look: "It's just a steel rod, or just a barrel of steel, not even a barrel, Jack, this thing is too much for you, weishenme so excited?"
"It's barrel steel, but it's not ordinary barrel steel, man, it's the crystallization of technology, it's the latest development of a lab under the American Steel Corporation, and they plan to sell this steel to the military, and they also plan to take a place in the high-end gun steel market for civilian shooting competitions, so they approached me and asked me to help them make a batch of guns, and I secretly kept one, haha. β
Gao Yang suddenly came to his senses, looked at the in Jack's hand and began to light up, and said loudly: "How is the performance?"
Jack's eyebrows fluttered and said: "Man, this is the most haode barrel steel I have ever seen, there is no one! They only produced a hundred steel rods in total, the composition is secret, the production process is secret, in short, everything is secret, in short, it is very, very good, I have personally verified it, haode is amazing." β
Bob said suspiciously, "If there is really such a good thing, the military did not procure it, and the laboratory did not produce it on a large scale? Also, they kept everything secret. How did you steal a?"
Jack said triumphantly, "I'm under the supervision of someone sent from that lab. I mixed the bag with another kind of steel rod which I specially prepared with this. Then another steel rod was made into a barrel, but unfortunately, that barrel was scrapped, so they destroyed that scrapped barrel, and I, left this barrel steel. β
Bob was puzzled and said, "Weishenme, you don't buy it but use the stolen one? Since they plan to make this steel into a barrel for sale, you can buy it in large quantities." β
Jack looked sad and said helplessly: "Man." Not to mention, the idiots at the Department of Defense didn't buy this steel, because Congress wouldn't have agreed to approve, and the arms companies wouldn't buy it, because it's so expensive, and I don't know the ingredients and the process, but the cost of such a steel bar is twelve thousand dollars, man, it's just the cost price. The military is crazy to buy it, and the arms companies. Do you think that the barrel made of this steel can be sold a year, how man, ten, and one hundred? Man, the market demand simply cannot maintain the production line of this steel, so the information of this steel is sealed, and it is only an experimental production of 100 pieces and then discontinued, because there is no market at all, and this steel rod in my hand may be one of this kind of steel. β
Bob also looked sorry and said, "Is there a big improvement in performance? If so, I want my dad to buy the patent for this steel." β
Jack shrugged his shoulders and said: "The performance improvement for the barrel is indeed great, but it has not yet reached the point of subverting the original material system, and the price is hundreds of times higher, and the existing steel performance is enough, so this kind of steel is destined to be stored only as a jishu reserve, that laboratory has been marketed to many countries on Shijie, but unfortunately, the military and civilian high-end gun markets in the United States cannot afford it, do you think there is still that country that can afford it?" The patent for this thing is indeed seeking to be sold, and whoever has the money can buy it, but no country's military will buy the patent and produce this steel, unless they want to deliberately empty their own treasury, so you should discourage the idea of selling the patent. β
After saying with a look of regret, Jack said to Gao Yang, "Okay, now this steel rod is yours, I will use it to make you the most perfect heavy barrel, and carefully build all the parts that can match this barrel, now come with me, I have to carefully measure your body data." β
Seeing that Jack was about to leave with Gao Yang, Cui Bo, who had been struggling not to speak, finally couldn't hold it back, and he immediately said in unison: "Please wait, can you help me make a gun, a 12.7 mm caliber sniper rifle, you can drive it at any price." β
Jack stopped, shook his head apologetically, and said, "Man, it's not that I won't help, but I really don't have time, it will take at least three months to make a gun for Gao, and I really can't squeeze out time to make another large-caliber sniper rifle." β
Cui Bo hurriedly opened his gun case, showed a Barrett M82A1M and a TAC50, and then said urgently: "It doesn't matter if you can't make a new one, as long as the performance is greatly improved, you can modify it for me." β
Jack looked at Cui Bo's gun, but shook his head and smiled: "Man, what makes you think that just modifying can greatly improve the performance of a gun? This is ridiculous, let's put it this way, now the guns produced by large companies have reached a very high level, if you want to greatly improve the performance on the original basis, there is no other way than to remake one, and you need to start from the level of raw materials, and you need to polish and assemble parts by hand, and this requires a lot of money and time."
Of course, if you have a bad gun that you don't even care about assembling, maybe you can greatly improve the performance by modifying it, but as long as it is a product that the big company thinks can be marketed, there will basically be no such bad gun flowing out, unless you are really unlucky to a certain point. β
Cui Bo looked disappointed and said, "Is it really only possible to make a new one?" I see that many gunsmiths make a living by modifying. β
Jack laughed, "They make a living by changing guns, and I elevate guns to the level of art, man, that's the gap between them and me, but if you insist, I can still do something for you." β
Cui Bo said urgently: "What can you do?"
After Jack took a closer look at Cui Bo's two guns, he said in a deep voice: " This M82 is modified, it can be seen that it is a hand-polished assembly of parts, but it is not good enough, and this gun is not suitable enough for your figure, I can reduce the weight of your gun, replace it with some lightweight parts, and then reassemble it, and then you can also modify the shape of the butt according to your figure, after doing so, it will help to improve the accuracy, and it will make you more comfortable to use, so that there should be a relatively large improvement in your shooting, but I have to explain, this is not a result of a significant increase in accuracy, but a result that makes you more comfortable when shootingγ β
Cui Bo nodded again and again: "Okay, no problem, even if you can't make a new gun, it can be modified to be more suitable for me to use." β
Jack nodded, thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "The cost of the modification is $10,000, how are you going to pay for it?"
The price quoted by Jack startled Cui Bo, and he was dumbfounded, "It's 10,000 dollars just for a modification? It's so expensive? It's worth the price of this gun, right?"
Jack shrugged his shoulders and said: "The material is five hundred dollars, my labor fee is nine thousand five hundred dollars, and I will get the gun in three months, no way, I have to work overtime for you in my spare time, so you have to pay me overtime, of course, you can choose to ask someone else to modify it for you." β
Cui Bo immediately shook his head and said, "I just sighed, 10,000 is 10,000, it doesn't matter." β
Bob was daxiao, and said, "My dad has already given you a gift, and I have to give it to you, so all the expenses here are covered by me, don't worry, this budget was specially approved by my dad, otherwise I really can't afford to pay this money, haha." β
Li Jinfang touched his head and said, "It doesn't seem that there is any need to change my gun, right?"
Jack said in a deep voice: "If you use a rapid-fire weapon such as an assault rifle, it is really not necessary, in my opinion, an assault rifle is a consumable, and the requirements for accuracy are not too high, so if you use a famous brand gun, there is no need to waste my time, if I were you, I would choose a tailor-made secondary weapon." β
Gao Yang nodded and said, "That's right, it's time for us to get a good pistol, I've been using the M1911, but the first and best pistol I've ever used is the custom-made M1911 that Simon gave me, and then I used the same gun, which feels far worse than the one Simon gave me, so now I really need to tailor a pistol for myself." β
Bob Haha smiled and said, "Do you feel the difference? Let me tell you, Simon's gun was made for him by Jack, and after Simon gave him his gun, he came to Jack to customize it for him, but unfortunately Jack didn't have time, now you can have a pistol customized for you, so you'd better return Simon's gun to him, he will be very grateful to you." β
After finishing speaking, Bob patted Jack and said, "Brother, their life was saved, otherwise you will lose my good brother, I plan to thank them with your work, you must fulfill my wish." β
Jack glanced at Bob and said, "You should have said this earlier, you didn't tell me that they saved you, well, for their sake, I can work overtime to build a pistol for each of them, but it can only be a pistol, otherwise, I won't be able to finish it this time next year." β
Cui Bo was excited, in fact, he was always excited as long as he could get a good gun, and after hearing Jack promise to make a pistol for each of them, Cui Bo immediately said loudly: "I want to SIGP226 and help me engrave my name on the gun." β
Jack looked at Cui Bo and smiled, then shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, it's not up to you to decide what gun you want to use, but I have to say what you like, what you like may not be suitable for you, so, now come with me to get the gun, and then let's go to the shooting range to test fire, and then pick out the gun that is really suitable for you."
