Li Ming led the Boxer soldiers to hide in the nearby mountains, built several houses, barracks, dormitories, warehouses, every day Li Ming got up early and began to lead the Boxer soldiers to train, stand in line, practice left and right turns, stand upright, walk in steps, do push-ups, stand in a military posture, long-distance running, sprinting, wrestling, target shooting, shooting, practice assassination, and also carry out military theory education, Zhao Sanduo also followed to study, Li Ming planned to let Brother Zhao be a coach in the future, Li Ming taught seriously, and the students studied seriously, Li Ming began to look at everyone standing in a military posture and said that the waist must be straight, exercise the waist, exercise the legs, sweat more on the playground, and bleed less on the battlefield, you must remember it for me。。。。。 People have life, guns have life, guns must be held steady, arms must be advantageous not to tremble, pay attention to the bullseye in the distance, energy must be concentrated, good 。。。。。。 What the hell are you practicing! Brother Zhao led these people to continue practicing, running every day, wiping guns, wrestling, targeting, training, the next day Li Ming began to check the standing line, the military posture is not too good, finally a little bit of a look, the target starts, Cheng Xiang 10 hit the three rings, Li Qiang 10 hit the two rings, Wang Le hit 1 out of 10 shots, Ge Jian hit 3 rings in 10 shots, 3 rings in 10 shots in Xiaosi, Li Si 10 in the three rings, the results are too poor to continue to practice。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。 If you go to the battlefield with this broken result, you won't look for death! 100 push-ups per person after eating, one, two, three, four, five, continue to exercise on this physique? At that time, I can't move, and I have been training for more than ten days in a row, running, push-ups, shooting, and disassembling guns. Gun technology is high, you have to learn hard, I have this in my hand is a front-loading firing pin line of muskets, ignited by the firing pin, firing bullets out, you take turns to look at the parts of these guns, you can skillfully disassemble the guns in the future, this step is the rear-loading gun M1819 Hall rear-loading gun, is the most advanced gun at present, the rear-loading gun was not a new term at that time, as early as the 15th century, there have been rear-loading (chamber loading) artillery and arquebuses. The benefits of loading ammunition from the rear are obvious, allowing soldiers to reload quickly while minimizing exposure of themselves. Despite such obvious advantages, rear-loading guns were not accepted by most people until the early 19th century due to technical limitations. Hall's design of the Hall rear-loading gun played a revolutionary role in this process. Hall invented a series of mechanized production machines that made it possible to produce parts in large quantities, which also laid the foundation for the mass production of rear-loading guns. At the same time, the M1819 Hall rear-loading gun is also the world's first weapon with interchangeable parts, and its bolt, barrel and bolt assembly and other parts can be easily installed on any M1819, making the rear-loading gun no longer just a luxury product.

The Hall breech was a breech-loaded flintlock pistol with a construction that was not entirely new (it had been tried out by Italian and British gunsmiths for centuries), but its simple, rugged design was favored by the U.S. Ordnance Department. The bolt mechanism of the gun includes a bolt, a firing mechanism, and a steel block attached to the receiver. When loading, press a trigger-shaped spring hook below ** to open the bolt, and then lift the bolt up so that the muzzle slopes upward. After that, fill the chamber with a certain amount of ***, and use your fingers to push the projectile to the deepest part of the chamber. When the bolt is locked, the firearm is in a state of readiness. With a little practice, the Hall rear-loading gun could be reloaded several times faster than the standard front-loading smoothbore musket, as well as other guns of the same era.

Early Hall rear-loading guns had a caliber of 0.52 inches (13.2 mm), a barrel length of 572 mm, and 16 rifling. The metal parts on the gun were essentially the same as those of the M1812 musket. With the exception of the case-hardened bolt, all metal parts were coated with a layer of brown paint. According to the soldiers who used the gun at the time, the biggest flaw of the gun was that the gap between the bolt and the barrel would cause too much gas to leak out, and there was a safety hazard of leaking into the bolt mechanism.

Initially, the United States ** signed a contract for the purchase of 1,000 Hall rear-loading guns, which were produced by the Franco-Swiss Arsenal, for which the Franco-Swiss Arsenal specially hired Hall as an assistant mechanical engineer to supervise the production of the gun throughout the process.

Widely used Hall***

In 1833, the United States equipped its cavalry units with the *** type of Hall rear-loading guns - M1833 Hall ***. The gun was the main long weapon used by the 2nd Dragoon Brigade in the Seminole War.

M1833 Hall *** Except for the M1819 Hall rear-loading gun's standby mechanism and fire sickle replaced with ** and primer socket, the other structures are basically the same as M1819. The gun is in 0.52-inch caliber, and another 1000 are in 0.579-inch (14.7mm) caliber, with a smoothbore barrel with a barrel length of 665mm, and a push-pull *** knife under the barrel for easy use. The installation of bayonets on the guns of the cavalry showed that the possibility of cavalry fighting as infantry in at least some combat situations was fully taken into account. **Hollow, which can be used for wiping, weapon disassembly, etc., the gun strap loop is mounted on the back half of the trigger guard, which is different from the firearms used today.

Later, a Hall *** called the M1836 was produced, which was basically the same as the M1833, except that the caliber was changed to 0.64 inches (16.3mm), the strap ring of the gun was moved from the rear half of the trigger guard to the middle of the **, and the flintlock pistol was used as an offset aiming device. Although the smoothbore barrel is still used, the inner diameter is gradually reduced from the tail end of the barrel to the muzzle, so that the projectile is gradually clamped as it travels along the barrel, which greatly increases the accuracy of the projectile. Although the gun was produced during the Seminole War, many of them are now quite well preserved, indicating that its use in the war was not as widespread as that of the M1833.

Eventually, the Seminoles were defeated and had to relocate, but some of them refused to give in and remained in Florida, setting the stage for the Third Seminole War in 1855. Most of the battles in the Third Seminole War were fought by infantry, so the Hall *** was not adopted.

However, Hall was in service for a long time, and several different models were produced before they were finally withdrawn from service, and the biggest differences between these weapons and the original model included the movable connecting pin of the bolt machine.

▲ M1836 Hall *** adopts a 0.64-inch caliber, offset sight Hall rear-loading gun/*** The outstanding feature of the bolt can be used as a pistol

Hall rear-loading guns and *** are so popular in the army, in addition to their obvious advantages, another reason is that its bolt is removable, and the removed bolt can also be used as a pistol alone. Since the entire firing mechanism is contained in the bolt, although it is not very easy to use, it can still be carried in a pocket and used for self-defense in case of emergency. There is still a lot of literature that many American soldiers used Hall's bolt as a pistol in the Mexican War, but there is no text that anyone used Hall's bolt as a pistol in the Seminole War, but it is certain that the dragoon brigade at that time was at least aware of this feature, and someone may have tried it.

Hall***'s bolt is easy to remove from the receiver by simply removing the attached screws. Despite the strange angle of the bolt when removed and the lack of a grip, it doesn't feel too bad to hold. The trigger is approximately 50.8 mm (2 inches) long and allows for at least 3 fingers to be held.

Shooting experience

You give me a good study, and after the training, we will come up with more new weapons.
