Pietro, who had already retired from the military industry, recently reappeared in the newspapers, claiming that Beretta would launch a new automatic rifle design and submachine gun design, and it would inevitably overpower other people's designs. This passage can be seen at a glance by the discerning eye that this is aimed at the AKM and FAL launched before Albert, and coupled with the rumor that has been widely circulated recently, there is indeed a feeling that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.

According to historical inference, Albert is not difficult to find the answer, the rifle should be the BM59 rifle improved from the M1 Garand, and the submachine gun, the biggest possibility is the M12 submachine gun launched in 1959, although this firearm is compact, simple to operate, and reliable in performance, but because of the old-fashioned appearance and poor market publicity, it was buried in the Uzi submachine gun and MP5 submachine gun.

If it's an M12 submachine gun, Albert feels a bit of competitive pressure, although no matter which design he has on hand is enough to crush this firearm back and forth several times, there is no chance of accidents. However, he is not ready to design MP5 to seize the military and police market in Europe and even North America, the reason is very simple, in 1945, the development of general engineering plastics is still very backward, and as a plastic part can account for 30% of the gun body, MP5 can only develop an all-metal model at this time, but this will greatly increase the weight of the gun body, and it will lose its reputation for being lightweight.

Although the designer of the M12 submachine gun, Domenico Saaz, is still experimenting with his firearms at other companies, it is believed that under the leadership of the chief designer, Demenico Salza, they will probably develop a similar firearm if they cannot develop the M12 submachine gun.

"Albert, I think you're underestimating the enemy this time." The anti-heaven BUG Sky Eye with remote monitoring ability re-entered Albert's mind, although it has lost its physical form so far, but this guy who came out in a spiritual form can better invade other people's minds, after Piatro went out, Albert let Tianyan dive into Piatero's subconscious to obtain information.

"What's wrong?" Skyeye's words startled Albert.

"Beretta is not alone with you this time, he has already contacted the Karl Gustaf Arsenal and the Swiss company SIG Industries to jointly develop submachine guns and assault rifles."

"Sweden's Carl Gustaf Arsenal? It turned out to be the company that designed the M/45 submachine gun. This year the gun should also be available. Albert, who knew a little about the M/45 submachine gun, suddenly realized that the old man of Piatro was planning to borrow the design of this gun?

The design of the M/45 submachine gun was quickly finalized due to the fact that it borrowed or improved on the successful elements of many famous submachine guns during World War II, especially those produced with stamped parts, including the German MP40, the British "Stern" and the Soviet PPSh-41 and PPS-43. So he was able to make sure that the prototype gun was designed as soon as it was designed in 1944, that it could be tested that year, and in 1945 the first production model was identified, and several subsequent modifications were introduced.

The M/45 series submachine guns are sturdy, reliable, excellent in performance, and have the advantages of simple structure and easy production, which are very popular with some third world countries. However, it was not until the 1960s that the gun became known to the world during the Palestinians' military campaign to establish a state, and the love of the gun by the U.S. Navy SEALs during the Vietnam War and the imitation by S&W further expanded the popularity of this otherwise obscure weapon.

As for the SIG company, it seems that there are not many firearms that can be used in recent years, the SIG550 has not yet been launched, and even the slightly famous MP48 submachine gun will not be equipped until 1948.

"Also, the first butterfly effect that changed history has already taken place, and Kalashnikov joined Beretta, joining Demenico Salza, Vittorio Val, Tulio. Marngony and M/45 designer Gunnar Johnson, four long-established designers, a Van Gogh-esque genius, Beretta is planning to kill you NORINCO and FN this time. ”

"Uh...... I didn't expect Lao Ka to go to Beretta Company, but the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, since they want to make a big news, I will also play with them. Albert said that it was light, but in fact it was not easy at all.

"We also need to adjust our original plan, although we don't want to make so many great designs at once, but these people are forcing me to do it." Albert was quite helpless, such as the North Industries Company, a company that emphasizes "creating (piao) new", every five years to design two excellent guns is the best pace of development, all at once to come up with too many excellent designs will make people feel dazzling, but do not know how to start, not to mention that the appetite of that group of customers is tricky, in the future to give them a sense of surprise will be difficult.

"You don't have to fight them on a new rifle." "You can launch their peripheral replacement parts on the basis of AKM or FAL, so that customers can choose from several solutions, which can greatly enhance the interest of customers." ”

"You mean modular options like the AR series?" Albert spread his hands and asked, "Don't forget that this is not the era of delicate individual combat systems, and what the army needs is a cheap, reliable, and similar firepower accuracy." The only thing interested in modularity is the private armies of some wealthy bosses. ”

In the twentieth century, it was not uncommon for wealthy people to raise an army, especially in Africa, where mining companies or "grey income" employers hired a small army to ensure business security and deter competitors who sought to annex their industries. Of course, the premise is that you earn enough to support the army.

"No, no, no, I'm talking about the perimeter of the AKM rifle's BPS silencer, the Romanian handguard with its own grip, the drum, and the tactical folding bracket." Tianyan explained.

Albert slapped his thigh, "yes, why didn't I think of it, if this is done, customers will have a few more choices for AKM rifles, and it will also increase the loyalty of old customers, for new customers, a firearm that has just been interviewed and a firearm that has been tested and has a variety of options with free accessories, I dare not say that the latter is 100% chosen, but at least it will be prioritized." ”

After the mention of Tianyan, Albert suddenly realized that the principle structure of something like the PBS muffler is relatively simple, just divided into several expansion chambers with a partition, when the warhead passes through the muffler, the gunpowder gas through each chamber to expand and depressurize, and at the same time at the front end of the muffler is closed with a rubber tight mouth pad, when the warhead breaks through the sealing pad slowly releases the gas. It doesn't cost much to manufacture, and things like Romanian handguards, downward paratrooper folding brackets, steel tactical folding brackets, AKM drums, etc.

Albert's idea was to say, "We can also design magazine connectors, which can connect two or three magazines at the same time, so that we can quickly change magazines when shooting." ”

Taking advantage of the fact that the Black Millet did not promote the practical practice of tape and magazines, which is so much that it can no longer be a turtle, Albert hastened to bring the repeater to the market.

"So that we don't have to spend time and effort to design a new assault rifle, and next month is supposed to be the day of the release of the new submachine gun of NORINCO, I wanted to give them a slap in the face, but it seems that there is no chance."

"No, you still have a chance." Tianyan said, "It is said that when Kalashnikov joined Beretta, he brought all the drawings of the submachine gun and assault rifle he had designed before, and I think that in front of those four lightweight gunsmiths, the results will be released soon." ”

"Towards next month?" Albert was a little stunned, he had heard before that Kalashnikov had designed a rifle and several submachine guns before designing the AK47, but the Soviet Bureau of Firearms had not adopted them.

"It's a mature design, but it's just a little modified in a small place, and if you process it overnight, it's no problem to make a sample gun."

"No, no, no, Skyeye." Albert snapped his fingers as if he had thought of something, "In that case, then I don't mind designing another sniper rifle as the last straw that overwhelmed Beretta." ”
