3. Explosion-proof competition
I developed a fear of blind dates, and I was insulted the first time, and my next few blind dates were unsuccessful.
The unit is also half-separated and half-abandoned for me, and our unit is not old-fashioned, and the older ones are either sent to patrol units or transferred to other sub-bureaus or detachments.
It is said that there is an older brother of another team, the Navy, who is reluctant to leave the SWAT team and is looking for a leader to join the EOD team. The EOD team is also part of our assault team, so we had to go out and patrol the team below, and I guess it should be me or the policewoman Xiaoxue.
Today's practice is climbing, and our training point is in the armed police training team, where the training equipment is relatively complete. We were climbing a simulated three-story building, and we were required not to wear gloves or kick against walls, but to rely on our arm strength to go up.
When we first joined the team, there were only two of us who could go up, and now it's not a problem to go up, the key is to be fast or slow.
I've always been at the top of my game, after all, I'm more dominant in terms of strength, and this is the first time I've practiced this event since I recovered, maybe it's the last time, and I don't care.
Brother Wu was not as strict with the other team members as he was, I felt like an outcast, so I climbed up half-loosely. As a result, I was ranked second to last, so Brother Wu reported it and didn't criticize me.
At halftime, Brother Wu said that there was an explosion-proof competition this year, and he didn't know how the detachment would decide. Our detachment has always been the first in the past, but this year it is a little difficult, it is said that several cities in the south are recruiting retired athletes from the national team and the provincial team, and in the end people in the south have money.
Because the predecessor of the SWAT team was called the "anti-riot team", the big competition has always been called the "explosion-proof big competition".
On the morning of the second Monday, the notice of the explosion-proof competition was issued, and the competition was basically divided into armed cross-country and shooting, as well as swimming.
Ten kilometers of armed cross-country, with our 54 pistols and 79 micro charges, wearing tactical vests and steel helmets. There are more points in shooting, and the accuracy and rapid-fire of long guns and short guns are relatively large. Also wear a tactical vest when swimming.
After lunch, we didn't let us rest, our life is very regular, we get up early and go to bed early every day, and take a nap after dinner are necessary. Waking up early and going to bed early is supervised by leaders, and napping has become a habit.
The Liang detachment, who was in charge of our training, came to our brigade for a meeting, and what he said was about the explosion-proof contest, mainly to introduce to us the glorious history of our contest in the past, the items and training arrangements of the contest.
We did always go first before, I've seen trophies. But it is clear that the leaders are no longer so confident in this year's competition.
The explosion-proof competition requires three people to participate, but there can be a substitute, and the substitute can be played, and there is no limit to the number of substitutions. To put it bluntly, each city participates in three projects, and four people can choose three better ones to participate in this competition. In the next competition, there will be substitutions, as long as there are no substitutions in this event. Personnel selection and training will be conducted tomorrow.
Early the next morning, everyone prepared their guns and targets, and first conducted the selection of shooting personnel for the competition. The main thing is a pistol, if the normal pistol is played well, the spear is not a problem, we have practiced a lot of guns, but we have basically not practiced rapid-fire.
Let's talk about pistols first, everyone who has been shot knows that firing is very important. If the hand shakes during the firing, it is basically determined that you want to run the target, and the aiming is basically enough, but it takes a long time to aim normally, and it is the most time-consuming to adjust the direction of the crosshair notch.
The quality of marksmanship is mainly in firing and steady. But rapid-fire is also very important, and that is to keep the arms and wrists straight, just to save time for adjustment.
The sharpshooter on TV, with his arm bent like a dog's rib, beats people to death with his hand raised, and that's all a lie. There are real sharpshooters, but they must have straight arms when shooting.
If you want to do a good job, you must first practice the posture of holding the gun. Hold the gun in your hand, put your arm down after aiming, only move your shoulder, keep your arms and wrists still, and when you raise the gun again, keep the front sight and notch flat and fixed position.
Over time, the posture is fixed, and after picking up the gun, the basic front sight and notch are flat, and basically do not adjust the muzzle direction. It saves time and is ready to fire in no time.
After firing, the muzzle of the gun will change direction due to the recoil, and then you can regain your original position by feeling and fire the next shot.
We've practiced posture before, but we haven't practiced rapid-fire, and some people shoot a little faster, like me, and they have to be trained.
Now that we're going to practice rapid-fire, we're all quite excited. We were still divided into two groups, and I was called by Team Li to suppress the bullets, and in the eyes of these people, I was basically useless, and I was also very excited, of course, I also wanted to compete, but I just thought about it, and I was about to give up on myself.
The Liang detachment drove a telescope at the back of the team and praised it when it saw a good fight. When the second group of precision shots, no one called me, but the Liang detachment saw it and said: "Wang Yuankun, you haven't fought yet, why don't you fight, go up, I think your gun is still good." ”
Only then did Brigade Li think of me, and said with a smile: "I almost forgot about you, go, hurry." "I found my gun and stood on the side.
We shot the target, as usual, I was the first to finish, after the gun inspection, I took a step back and stood up, and the Liang detachment called me with a straight face: "Yuan Kun come here, look at your results." ”
I cautiously walked over and leaned on the binoculars, as if it were five rings, and I looked up at the Liang detachment.
Detachment Liang smiled: "How is it?" ”
I replied curtly: "It should be five rings." ”
The Liang detachment bowed and retreated and laughed, and waved his hand to the Li brigade: "Come, Lao Li, take a look." ”
When Team Li watched, the Liang detachment said again: "You see, the five bullets are gathered together, very good, you will still practice sniping in the future, maybe you were born a sniper, stay in the commando team in the future." ”
Indeed, several of our older snipers are in their thirties, and they are probably going to be out of the game.
We recruited so many in this batch, and they were all athletes, just to enrich the commando. So a few of our guns were better, and we started practicing sniper rifles before I was injured in the eye. I snickered, it looks like I'm not going to go down to the patrol.
In the second round, I was fifty rings again, and the Liang detachment was very happy and praised me well. When it came to rapid fire, everyone was excited and nervous.
Those of you who have never played with guns must not understand, we hold submachine guns every day, but can only shoot, that kind of depression, it is really a hundred claws scratching the heart, now there is a chance to fire rapidly, it must be exciting, after all, rapid fire is a bit of a continuous feeling.
When we practiced, we also practiced straightening our arms and wrists, and at the beginning we would hang a military water bottle full of water on our arms when we were aiming at the target, and we would practice for a long time. Later, we would hang the kettle on the pistol to practice, so we still had a certain amount of skill.
But in the end, they never fired rapid-fire, and the first group of players shot very fast, and they waited for the gun to be tested. But the results were very unsatisfactory, and the Liang brigade shook his head, and some people ran at most three rounds, basically one or two rounds.
I was a little nervous when we got to our group, I prayed silently, and then said to Xiaoyan, "Brother, stand up, this time it's up to you." ”
Xiaoyan said: "You just hold steady, you can shoot fast, and if you pay a little attention, it shouldn't be a big problem." ”
I still felt nervous, holding the gun in both hands and shaking a little, but when my fingers overwhelmed the second fire, I was already very steady.
I fired five rounds quickly, and it was obvious that the third shot was a bit of a nod. Due to the poor results in the first group, the speed of the others dropped significantly, and they didn't dare to fight, and I was the first to test the gun.
Brigade Liang called me over, Team Li also stood next to me, Brigade Liang asked me to look at my target, I took a look, three ten rings, one eight rings, one nine rings.
After reading the Liang detachment's speech: "It's not bad, although one eight and one nine, it's good to fight like this for the first time, I am practicing well and practicing more to position." ”
Our group did not do badly, and basically no one ran the target, but Team Li scolded: "This group of bear children, is this called rapid fire, it is slower than ants crawling, do it again." ”
The Liang detachment came over: "I haven't played rapid-fire, it's understandable that I didn't play well, I will practice more positioning actions in the future, the main thing is to feed with more bullets, let's do this today, practice the movements, clean up, I'll go back first." ”
