Chapter 63 Mass Production (Subscription Requested!! )

As the maker of the drawings, Edward had an absolute 'imagination' for the rifle he developed.

It dismantled the two Deletse bolt-action rifles and turned the parts on them into the ones it needed, and the Kraken's Tears once again showed its great strength, a gem capable of realizing illusions, and once it came out, it was bound to be robbed by scientists.

Triggers, sleepers, barrels, pistons ....

Edward assembles the conjured parts one by one, and is extremely skillful, after all, this is the firearm he designed, and there is probably no one in the world who knows the construction and assembly sequence of the 'Edward One' better than him.

With a click, Edward pressed the bolt, and after repeated checks, he nodded with satisfaction, pulled the bolt, and loaded 5 backloading lead bullets into the chamber.

"Okay, let's find a place to test the gun."

With the Edward I rifle in hand, the three of them went to the dark room under the church, and like the church in New Russia, there was also a dark room under the Znamensky Cathedral, which was stacked with many discarded wooden barrels, and I don't know what they were used for.

The only fly in the ointment is the light, it's too dark for two kerosene lamps to illuminate the wide basement.

In order to ensure accuracy, Ma Wei asked the communication to put a kerosene lamp on a wooden barrel in the corner of the wall, and pasted a target paper on the wall above, and shot at a distance of more than ten meters.

Since the rifling and firing pin in the barrel were all originals removed from the Deleter bolt-action rifle, the accuracy would not deviate too much, and Edward was also full of confidence in the firearm he made, so he asked the communication to take a few steps back, raised the slender rifle with one hand, aimed it at the target paper, and pulled the trigger.

Bang!

The sudden bright light of the fire dispelled the darkness, illuminated the faces of Mavi, the communication and Edward, and in the scattered sparks, the smoke was filled, and the bullet easily hit the target paper, leaving a charred mark on the wall, but....

Mavi did not hear the continuous sound of gunfire.

He looked at Edward and saw that the other man was frowning, tapping on the rifle in his hand.

"What's wrong?"

"It's stuck." "It's not a matter of design, it's a lack of air pressure," Edward said. ”

"Lack of air pressure?"

"Hmm." Edward manually pulled the bolt of the gun, exited a cartridge case, and explained: "The principle of automatic unshelling and loading is to use air pressure to push the piston to perform a series of operations on the bolt, but because the bullet is filled with black powder and the barrel is too long, the amount of air pressure that bursts when the gunpowder burns is reduced, and the piston cannot be fully pushed...."

"So you can't shoot continuously?" The source walked over and asked.

"Yes, but the shooter must be in a relaxed state, and cannot hold the trigger to death, otherwise the air pressure will not push the piston, and the piston and the trigger are connected." Edward raised his rifle again and aimed it at the target paper, this time ....

Gunshots rang out continuously.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

It wasn't until the bullet in the gun was fired that Edward stopped his movements and said: "When the gunpowder burns, it will push the bullet to form air pressure, push the piston and bolt structure at the muzzle, and forcibly reset the trigger to prepare for the second shot, but the black powder is not powerful enough, and the long barrel weakens the force of the air pressure..."

Ma Wei understood, this is actually not difficult to understand, the trigger is used to control the firing pin, contained in the bolt structure, as long as the trigger is pulled, the firing pin will detonate the gunpowder in the bullet, thus shooting the bullet, which is also the principle of firearm shooting.

In order to complete the continuous shooting, Edward used the piston to play the yellow rod, and wanted to let the air pressure push the trigger and reset the firing pin, which he had to do, because the Delesai bolt rifle was a needle-type rifle, and the firing pin was very long, and it needed to be inserted deep into the bullet to detonate the gunpowder, and if the firing pin was not reset, the long needle would jam the previous cartridge case.

"As long as the shooter remains relaxed and lets go naturally after pulling the trigger once, the trigger can be reset smoothly, and when it is fully reset, the second shot can begin."

Edward shook his head and sighed, "My design is still not perfect, there are too many flaws. ”

Many problems can only be discovered in practice, and imagination alone cannot be found.

But....

For Mavi, this bolt structure is sufficient.

The flaws of the Edward 1 stem from the power of gunpowder and the needle-type firing needle of the Deleser bolt-action rifle, which belonged to the legacy of the previous generation and had nothing to do with Edward.

As long as you can modify the bullets and firing pins, you can solve these flaws.

"I don't think it's necessary to put it into production on a large scale, it's a waste product."

Edward casually threw the rifle and the Siren's Tears to Mavi, lost interest, and turned to walk upstairs: "You can do it yourself." ”

“boss。”

Looking at Edward's departing back, the source wondered, "Is this gun bad?" ”

"Not bad."

"And Edward, how is it..."

Ma Wei weighed the heavy rifle in his hand and said, "It's not bad in our eyes, but it's not necessarily in Edward's eyes." ”

Early the next morning, Mavi took Edward 1 with him and rushed to the camp outside the city with the communication, handing over the rifle to Katerina, along with the drawings.

After testing, Katerina became interested in the 'Edward I' and immediately said that she wanted to mass-produce the rifle that could fire repeatedly, even if it was flawed.

The soldiers of the Kingdom of Windsor, armed with the most advanced Draser rifles and Armstrong breech-loading guns, completely crushed the Romanov Kingdom with firepower, and the appearance of 'Edward I' will undoubtedly change this situation.

Katerina is convinced that as long as the army of the Romanov Kingdom is equipped with 'Edward I' on a large scale, it will be able to completely defeat the army of the Kingdom of Windsor and expel them from this land before the beginning of spring!

In order to be able to quickly start producing 'Edward I', Katerina immediately took the drawings and went to the Yinsim Arsenal east of Tyumen with Mavi and the two of them, and on the way, Mavi also went to the warehouse outside the city to get two pounds of gold.

When the person in charge of the Yin Chim Arsenal heard that Katerina Romanov was coming, he hurriedly put down his work and walked quickly to the door to greet him, and when he saw the drawings in Katerina's hand, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then his face was shocked: "This.... Who designed this firearm? Edward... Who is Edward? ”

"You don't care about these problems, I'll ask you, how long can I make a matching mold?"

"Your Highness, the arsenal is still using the old mold, if you want to create a new mold... At least three days. The head of the company, Lashkov, mused: "And our arsenal is not big enough, it can produce up to 300 rifles a day, if you need it urgently, it is better to go to the Tomsk arsenal." ”

"Tomsk is not under my jurisdiction." Katerina rejected Lashkov's offer: "Just give birth here, and leave this matter to you, the sooner the better." ”

"Understood."

"And."

Katerina glanced at Mavi and the two behind her, and continued:

"Find us a room with a forge."
