Chapter 120: Advanced Experiences from Africa
"This can be regarded as a homecoming!"
"No, this is the bandit returning to the village!"
After leaving all African affairs to Hannibal, Shepard boarded the Mermaid and officially returned to the United States, as he stood on the deck and waved to his men below.
Hannibal had the conversation with Plumri on the side.
"That's pretty similar to what you say!"
"I hope that after all, we have a big gap now, and as the person in charge, it is best to solve these problems this time!"
"Then I don't have much hope, Mr. Smith's ability is limited, and Old Man Morgan's focus is on the Americas and Asia, so he may not be able to help us!"
"Gotta try!"
"And, that's what I'm looking forward to!"
"I'm looking forward to it, I've had enough of those idiots in the equipment department!"
"yes, who isn't!"
The two were referring to the anti-materiel rifles that Shepard and they had proposed during a casual conversation at the dinner table, and the so-called anti-materiel was not limited to killing people, but also included the destruction of military equipment, such as transportation, communications support equipment, and light armored vehicles, just like the anti-tank rifles of World War II.
It's just that Shepard wants a dedicated, well-designed weapon that maintains a good balance of operational performance, otherwise he can completely replace it with an old anti-tank gun from the past.
And the first thing he did when he returned was to throw a thick stack of reports to the Knight technicians.
Among them, the rails are not securely installed, the sights are not clean, and many other reports can help the company's production department to improve the series of products, and it is for this reason that the six-fold optical sight improved by Knight Ordnance according to the PMC report is currently quite popular in the hunting market.
After submitting the report and explaining his requirements, Shepard approached Rhett, who was working on machinery in the factory, and then proposed the idea of an anti-materiel rifle.
"Not only can it be used to hit people, but it can also attack light vehicles, not a bad idea, but will the military be interested?"
"You just have to build it, I'll take care of it over there!"
Shepard then put forward a request for a rotary pull-back manual sniper rifle using the Dot 338 Rapp Magnon, although the Winchester M70 rifle is quite good, but this is a civilian sport hunting rifle after all, Shepard doesn't want to do anything M24 sniper system, he wants to start anew.
It is not difficult to develop two firearms, but the difficulty is to make subtle adjustments to the firearms in the follow-up process, and this Shepard has no good experience, so he can only move out the relevant attributes in his mind first, and it can be regarded as setting a small goal to see if it can be achieved.
In addition, he also settled the purchase money he owed before, which was actually poured from the Shadow Company on his left hand to the Knight Ordnance on his right, but in the end, it was his wallet that flowed in.
Of course, this money still has to be taxed, after all, Knight armor also has to be mixed in the market.
"Oh, by the way, Red, I have the inside scoop!"
"What's the news?"
"The army still has some dissatisfaction with the M16 rifle, they prefer a slightly shorter carbine model, and most importantly, they don't want to have a fully automatic one, just three shots!"
"Just kidding, how could anyone like a triple burst shot!"
"Yes, but I can't stand that someone likes it!"
"So?"
"So, you can now think about the improvement of the M16, it's best to take two schemes, one with three consecutive rounds, and one without three consecutive rounds!"
"And when will this plan be?"
"Probably around 90 years!"
"You mean, the army is going to change guns in twenty years, so we're going to start preparing now?"
"Can't you?"
"Not really, why don't you wait 85 years to inform me of the good news?"
"Alright then, I have another idea!"
Shepard also wanted to bring out his immature idea about the MP7 submachine gun, but Radknight, who had already been stuffed with a bunch of jobs, and a vote of engineers didn't give him this chance at all, so they swarmed up and carried Shepard out of the factory.
"It's all for freedom, you, alas! I still have an immature idea, grenades do you understand, why don't we try to make grenades like snipers, and also, shotguns........."
Shepard, who was locked out of the door, could only helplessly help his forehead and go, these guys are too salty, they have arranged four different jobs, they are annoying, they have no fighting spirit at all, they don't work hard, how can they buy a Beverly Hills mansion?
After leaving Knight's company, Shepard first went back to San Diego, gave some African specialties to his cheap parents, and then left again, and went to Washington to find Smith non-stop.
The latter was also full of regret when he saw Shepard, he wanted to retire and handed everything over to Shepard, and now because of the call of his old friend, he ran back to play his spare heat, but he was busy for more than half a year, and returned to the original working state, so what did he retire at the beginning?
"Is the work hard?"
"It's hard!"
Smith poured Shepard half a glass of low-alcohol brandy as well, and then sat down on the couch himself, picked up half a glass of whiskey and drank it all.
"If Africa is a muddy pond, then what we are staying in now is a muddy sea!"
"Is it that bad?"
"Very bad!"
"Then it goes without saying!"
Shepard could guess that Smith's work arrangement was nothing more than burying mines and mixing sand and the like, and these jobs were indeed difficult to do, after all, not everyone was paid to do things, and not everyone was paid to do things, they were more likely to just take money!
"In this case, I generally suggest that you refer to the experience of friends from Africa, they are very fond of physical reasoning, so don't hesitate to send special forces to use napalm on them!"
"John!"
"Huh?"
"Get out!"
Obviously, Smith and they can't punch the opponent who looks like a friendly team, but is actually an ally, but it has to be an enemy.
"Haven't you tried the same advanced experience from Africa?"
"What experience?"
"Splash dirty water and buckle hats, for example, the other party poisons the innocent or something!"
"You might as well fix napalm!"
"Then it's up to you to operate, it's none of what I do! I'm coming to you for the same thing you promised me last time! ”
"A female secretary with big breasts?"
"This can be put back, this can't be put down, it must be the first priority, I'm talking about the Cadillac commandos!"
