Chapter 20 PK of Assault Rifles and Mauser Rifles
Anderson looked shocked and said loudly, "Is this true? This assault rifle is still so powerful. Okay, so let's use your assault rifles against our Mauser rifles today and see who is better. ”
After speaking, without waiting for Carl and Philip to speak, he went straight to the range manager and said, "You go and get five Mauser rifles, they must be the best maintained." ”
As soon as the shooting range manager saw the minister's order, he immediately ran to get the gun, and said in his heart that he had to behave well this time, and it seemed that he would soon be soaring.
While waiting, Anderson said, "Mr. Philip, you can tell me how this assault rifle should be used, or we people will not be able to play it." ”
Philip was still very confident in the PK of the two rifles, so he nodded and said, "Okay, Your Excellency, I will demonstrate the assembly of the assault rifle now." Then let's talk about how to use it. ”
I saw Philip quickly assemble while explaining. The entire assembly process took less than ten seconds, which shows his proficiency and how simple and delicate the structure of this assault rifle is.
Philip continued: "Your Excellency, this assault rifle is a folding support structure, and the plastic butt at the back can be folded to the side when you usually carry it, so that the length of the whole gun is shortened by more than ten centimeters. This magazine is 30 rounds of 5.8mm rifle ammunition, which can be fired single, burst, and burst. You only need to adjust the speed and slow machine to the corresponding position. ”
Immediately afterwards, Philip talked about the aiming, firing, and magazine change methods of assault rifles, which opened the eyes of the two ministers, especially the empty warehouse hang-up, so that a small assault rifle can instantly become a powerful light machine gun, which can be said to be very practical on the battlefield.
Philip had just finished speaking, and the range manager brought five Mauser rifles with two staff members.
Anderson said: "Let's choose five people, each using an assault rifle and a Mauser rifle, and shoot ten rounds each at a distance of 100 meters and 400 meters, to see which gun is more accurate." Then let's compare the shooting power at these two distances, using 10 mm thick steel plates and 3 mm thick steel plates respectively, as you said. ”
Philip smiled, "Okay, no problem. In this arrangement, two different rifles are used by the same person, which excludes human error and is fairer. Let's just let me, Mr. Karl, and Lucas come here. ”
Anderson nodded and said, "Okay, Deputy Secretary Kerry and I will come on behalf of the Department of Defense." ”
This time, the accuracy PK uses a standard target, and we see which gun has the highest average number of rings. The first is the Mauser rifle coming into play. These five Mauser rifles are indeed high-quality, and they are very well maintained, all the lubricated places are greased, and the barrels are polished.
Anderson picked up a Mauser rifle with satisfaction, pulled the bolt, it was smooth and there was no sense of blockage, and then said to the range manager: "Good maintenance, it seems that your manager still has a bit of management level." Consider putting a little burden on you. ”
Seeing that the minister praised himself so much, and intended to promote himself, the shooting range manager hurriedly nodded and said, "The minister is too complimentary, I just did the work that should be done." We subordinates feel very fortunate to be able to see the minister's marksmanship with our own eyes, and we will definitely do a better job. ”
Anderson laughed and said, "Okay, let me show you my Anderson's marksmanship!" Here we go. ”
After saying that, Anderson took the lead in walking to the shooting position, lying on the grass, and began to aim after taking position in a standard lying position.
The other four were also ready to shoot. In order to reduce human error, all people use fixed gun mounts for shooting. Seeing that the other four were ready, Anderson shouted, "Start shooting!"
This Mauser rifle has a magazine of exactly ten rounds, but each shot must be manually pushed into the chamber, unlike automatic rifles, which can be directly pulled with the trigger. With the sound of "bang-bang-bang" gunfire one after another, in less than a minute, several people finished firing ten rounds.
Anderson got up from the ground with a smile, and said a little self-deprecatingly: "Alas, it's old, it's useless, I think when I was young, this 100-meter shooting, it wouldn't be a problem to hit a hundred rings, but now I can't!" ”
Karl smiled and flattered: "Your Excellency is not weaker than young people at all, I took a look at your target just now, and the impact point is almost very close to the bull's-eye, and the results should be very good." ”
The range staff quickly counted the results, and Anderson hit 98 rings, Kerry 96 rings, Carl 97 rings, Lucas 97 rings, and Philip 98 rings. This is not a bad result, and the smile on Anderson's face is even brighter, because this is the first time he has shot a target, he has the best results, and only the gunsmith Philip is equal to him.
It was time for Bofors' new assault rifle to come into play, and Philip was very confident, but he was a little worried that the two ministers had just started and were not used to the new guns.
Anderson was also worried that he would not be able to play well, so he smiled and said: "In this way, Deputy Secretary Kerry and I will test ten rounds first, and then we will officially enter the test." ”
Karl smiled: "This couldn't be better, Your Excellency the Minister has thought it through." ”
Anderson and Kerry tested ten shots at a target 100 meters away according to the method demonstrated by Philip, and when Anderson got up from the ground after firing ten rounds, he had a smile of surprise on his face: "My God, this new rifle is too easy to handle, the recoil is small, the muzzle jump is gone, I don't think the performance of these ten rounds will be worse than that of the Mauser." ”
The staff quickly retrieved the target and counted the results, and the two ministers both scored a good score of 99 rings, which was simply too unexpected, originally everyone thought that the two ministers had only touched this new rifle, and it was good to be able to play 90 rings, but they did not expect to play better than their commonly used Mauser rifles.
Anderson smiled: "It seems that the new assault rifle is really good, let's get started, and I'm looking forward to the results of the competition." ”
It took the next five people less than thirty seconds to finish ten rounds, especially Philip, who barely paused at all, and only took ten seconds to finish the first ten rounds.
And the final result surprised everyone present, this time Philip, who was the first to finish ten rounds, scored a perfect score of 100 rings, Mr. Carl 99 rings, Lucas also 99 rings, and Anderson and Kerry both scored a perfect score of 100 rings.
This result made Anderson and Kerry overjoyed, on the one hand, because they played their best, and on the other hand, because the performance of the new gun is indeed very good, it can fully equip the Swedish army in large quantities, and it can also be exported to earn foreign exchange.
