111 Python type
(Although it has 230,000 words, the speed of updating exceeds expectations, but it still continues to be three more, and more points are sent as a reward for the brothers, and the recommended votes of "The Rich World" actually entered the top 400, the first time in my life wow-)
When the living area started, the factory building had been built, the machines had been installed, Zhang Leye and the skilled workers entered the site to start debugging, and at the same time tried to produce the "python" double-action revolver designed by Li Mu. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
That's right, it was the "Python" series launched by Colt in 1955, this "big monster" has been produced since 1955 and is considered "the best revolver of all time", also known as "the Rolls-Royce of revolvers".
Limited to the level of craftsmanship in this year, the "python" produced in Li Mu's factory is certainly not as advanced as the "python" in 1955, but in terms of appearance, there is almost no difference between the two, and compared with other revolvers of the same era, the "python" produced in Li Mu's factory can be described as a handicraft.
Li Mu is indeed preparing to launch craft pistols to meet the needs of some special people.
Craft pistols are different from ordinary pistols, which focus on practicality and do not have many requirements for appearance; Craft pistols, on the other hand, are more decorative, not only as self-defense weapons, but also as a necessity to express a man's tough temperament.
In Li Mu's plan, the handle of the ordinary pistol was walnut, which was also the choice of most factories at this time, and the craft pistol that Li Mu was going to produce used the ivory handle of the gun, and the logo of the horse weapons company was engraved on it, a horse with its front hooves in the air; The barrel has also been improved, the original "python" weight is larger, the reason is that in order to pursue accuracy and stability, too much counterweight is used on the barrel, the craft pistol does not pursue accuracy and stability, good looks is the only goal of the craft pistol, so the original counterweight on the barrel was canceled, replaced by a pattern made of silver wire, these patterns must be complex and cumbersome as the goal, the thin white silver wire coiled into a variety of vines and flowers, layer upon layer from the muzzle of the gun has been coiled to the magazine, the cluster of flowers is brocade, beautiful.
In order to indicate the height of craft pistols, each pistol has a unique code, which is different from the number on ordinary guns, but the abbreviation of the name of the gun owner, so all craft pistols need to be customized, which is another big gimmick of craft pistols.
The complex process will certainly make the work more difficult, and it would take a skilled gunmaker two weeks to make a pistol with such a craft.
Of course, the opposite is a high profit, an ordinary revolver sells for only $20, while a craft pistol can cost $200 or more, after all, the various costs alone add up to nearly $50.
Li Mu is black-hearted, and the price set for the craft pistol is 500 US dollars, of course, this price is a little higher, but Li Mu does not plan to make money from this, even if no one buys it, it doesn't matter, Li Mu's main purpose in producing craft pistols is to make friends with powerful people, this year, the martial spirit of the Americans is still very strong, if Li Mu wants to visit a powerful person for something, then the craft pistol is the best stepping stone.
Considering this purpose, Li Mu also plans to produce craft pistols inlaid with gold and diamonds in the future, and bribing this kind of pistol, which can be called a "luxury", is much better than carrying a few kilograms of heavy gold.
It's also much more effective.
The commissioning of the machine went well, and by mid-November, the first "Anaconda" revolver was finally available.
Bah, Bah, Bah -
Li Mu hit five bullet nests in a row on the shooting range in the factory, and then he was satisfied with it.
"Very good, better than I expected, Lao Zhang, this time you can make a great contribution to our factory, let's have a celebration banquet in the evening, and rest when we get drunk." Li Mu was very satisfied with the performance of the "Python" revolver, and he did not hesitate to praise Zhang Leye.
Zhang Leye did not go to California in the end, as the person in charge of the technical aspects of the factory, Zhang Leye had the same status in the factory as Cao Anran, who was in charge of management, and was also Li Mu's right and left hand, Li Mu would definitely not "assign" Zhang Leye to California, so Li Mu handed over the task of recruiting workers to a lawyer named Cole in Henry's law firm, who was responsible for recruiting workers for the factory.
Li Mu's recruitment requirements are still very strict, must be healthy, no bad hobbies, at the same time have good discipline and obedience, and the salary requirements can not be too high, so many conditions are restricted, although Li Mu did not say it explicitly, but only Chinese meet Li Mu's requirements and standards.
In Cole's view, Li Mu's request was normal, and this was also the practice of most capitalists and business owners at this time. In this era when the "Chinese Exclusion Act" has not yet appeared, the reason why the Chinese will steal the job opportunities of the white people is because the Chinese are hard-working, intelligent and capable, and the key is that the salary requirements are not high.
Don't be funny, capitalists can become capitalists because capitalists are more shrewd in accounting costs and profits, and the labor cost of commodities is precisely the largest component of the cost of commodities.
"Brother Mu, you have won the prize, this is what we should do." Zhang Leye said modestly, and the smile on his face truly reflected Zhang Leye's heart.
Since meeting Li Mu, Zhang Leye has been lucky, first escaped from the slum on Peak Street, and then joined Li Mu's factory and finally had a stable place to live, in Li Mu's factory will not be bullied, you can get a reward that matches your ability, children can also receive education, and even Zhang Leye has an acre of land in his name, all of which was unthinkable before meeting Li Mu.
The so-called "death for a confidant", Zhang Leye was panicked when he didn't make achievements, lest he wake up and everything was a good dream, so Zhang Leye urgently needed to make achievements and make achievements that exceeded Li Mu's expectations, so as to be worthy of Li Mu's kindness -
Maybe there is also the grace of saving lives, if it weren't for Li Mu, Zhang Leye didn't dare to imagine what would happen next, maybe he was already dead, his family was wiped out, and his wife was separated.
"Next, we will make every effort to organize production, expand production capacity as much as possible, we will start to compete with Springfield Arsenal and Colt now, my goal is to make Stallion Arms Company the largest weapons manufacturer in the United States within three years, our products will not only sell well in the United States, but also hit the European market and the Asian market, where there are more opportunities, and the demand for weapons is more urgent - so you have to be mentally prepared, in order to achieve this goal, you will definitely need to work harder." Li Mu painted cakes for Zhang Leye, and at the same time gave appropriate pressure.
There is pressure to be motivated.
