Chapter 19 Rapid Progress

As long as something is on track, the process will inevitably be fast.

Gross's assistant was quickly in place. According to Gross, his name is Abel Brandt, and he is an ammunition engineer; He is not tall and about the same as himself, he should not be a pure-blooded Germanic, with a shaved face, brown hair, blue eyes, and a pointed and large cartoon nose, which looks like a living person.

Sure enough, it was reflected when discussing the issue of bullets with him. He is a dozen years younger than Gross, but much more stubborn and conservative than Gross. I don't accept any of your requests and statements, and I always have questions, and even some unbelievable questions that you can't answer. Seeing that Gross was busy with his drawings as if he had never participated in the questioning, he had to argue patiently.

I didn't expect to get off work at night, there is no conclusion yet, and the temper is also up, and there is no consensus not to go home! Fred, who could see that he was picking me up, looked helpless. It is estimated that this guy's physical fitness is not as good as mine, and Fred has some scruples next to him, so I reluctantly reached a consensus under my guidance, threat, and coercion.

Four levels of precision bullets for future new guns.

Featured Bullets, Precision Bullets, Sniper Bullets, Competition Bullets.

Select-grade bullets are ordinary heavy-pointed bullets with consistent weight, good coaxiality and polished surface;

Precision-grade bullets are bullets that use small particles of gunpowder and a quantity of gunpowder to be accurately loaded and have a polished surface.

Competition-grade bullets are precision-grade bullets with all-copper precision machined bullets on the basis of precision-grade bullets.

The requirements of sniper-grade bullets are based on precision bullets, and the shooting accuracy is higher than that of precision bullets, and at the same time meet the power of hunting large animals.

Now it's time to make a competition-grade bullet, the warhead design needs to reduce air resistance, and the bullet shape and stern size are optimal with the charge. First, 1,000 rounds are processed according to the size of the heavy tip bullet to make training bullets.

Sniper-grade bullets, Humph, were developed by Brandt and validated before the game.

It was even busier with the arrival of machined parts, chrome plating, scopes, and heavy barrels.

The effect of the heavy barrel is still satisfactory, the impact point range is less than 1 and a half inches, and the estimated accuracy is 1.2 to 1.1 triangulation. The results were also evident in the test of the match bullets, with estimates of being able to improve accuracy to between 0.6 and 0.8 arc minutes. The five were excited, Fred proposed to celebrate, and the others said in unison: "No, no time!" ”

Regardless of the results of the competition, this gun is a sure winner, and there must be no shortage of markets. It's just that there is little difference in the accuracy of the four barrels, the long barrel is slightly better than the short one, and the six-rifled one is slightly better than the four-rifled one. People ask me how to decide?

I thought about it for a moment and said, "I think so, the results of the 200-yard target show that the difference is small, and Bauer can test it again at 500 yards, and the parameters obtained can provide a reference for us to develop a longer-range rifle." Firearm brakes should also be tested. The barrel of the new gun is determined according to the hexrifling of the short barrel, and sometimes some commercial smoke screens are also set up. With Ms. Shalotte's approval, the matter was decided.

Pointing to the rifle with a tactical rail, a barrel changed, and a wide handguard hole, he said to Fred: "This is your gun for the Berlin qualifiers, and the bullet is yours to choose." It's good to be selected in the qualifiers, don't have a good ranking, and don't pay attention to others together. Everyone's busy, Mr. Gross and I are working on a new gun, so don't bother the two of us! ”

There was a wave of protests!

It's much more enjoyable to discuss issues with Gross. For what you ask, basically agree, he has a better way to argue and fight; But overall, it's like you're in charge and you're responsible. Although the structure of the rifle is simple, it is not easy to make a new gun, even if it takes several years to finalize a new gun in the future. It's not that there aren't any, but that there are too many, and none of them are perfect, and it takes a lot of time to select them, and there are also economic issues to consider. The results of the new gun shown to us are already the most optimal, and we don't have to think about the economy.

So, in less than a day, a preliminary plan was reached. The gun magazine is integrated with the tactical guide rail, the three-protrusion tenon lock, the bolt machine formerly known as the fat latch, the shell throwing hook is shortened, and the shell throwing structure is used to make the shell throwing structure. The magazine is made of 10 rounds, and the shoots are placed on the side; I asked the trigger to be made into a single part, reliable in action, as small in size as possible, adjustable trigger force, and a universal trigger for our new guns in the future. In the future, there will be more common parts for the enterprise, and we will be able to quickly design new guns like cumulative wood; Firearms insurance, also to be redesigned; In short, our firearms and Mauser guns should be completely different, and we should avoid Mauser's related patents.

These are all directional things that I provide, and a large number of publications have been published in journals in my previous life, which are not uncommon for connoisseurs, and laymen can't understand why they are so after reading them. The biggest problem in research work is often that the direction is not clear, whether it is understood or believed now, it is something that is only clear after the accumulation of previous lives. So let Gross's design advance quickly, but it took a lot of time on the trigger structure.

Holding the triggers of the three structures, I asked him to choose, and seeing that he was reluctant to do any of them, he said: "Make samples and let the shooters choose, their opinions are the most important." ”

Walking and not being able to walk, Gross had to consult questions from time to time, and it was boring to stay. I took Ben Gross's book and prepared to pass the time, not wanting to be able to read it. This is a compilation of documents of similar corporate standards of Mauser Company, from materials, design, craftsmanship and so on, complete and meticulous. In my previous life, I didn't pay attention to many details in the armory factory, and there are strict rules here. In the previous life, China completed the construction of basic industries, but still did not catch up with Germany in terms of precision processing, which shows the depth of German industrial accumulation.

"Mr. Gross, where is this book sold?"

"This is an internal material edited by Mauser himself, and it is not sold."

"Do you have any extra copies for me?"

"Nope." Gross said helplessly, it seems that I disturbed other people's work.

"Do your friends or colleagues want to sell it?" I buy! ”

"Let me ask, maybe there will be an engineer who has lost his job from Mauser!"

"Please!"

Neither Gross nor I were interested in the firearm test report sent by Bauer, and Gross directly archived it; I paid a lot of attention to the test of the brake, and after reading the description of the report, I thought it was pretty good. He also asked Bauer what he and Fred thought.

"I like it a lot, Fred doesn't," Bauer said. Fred said that the gunfire was not crisp enough, which would affect his shooting skills. The tested brakes were very precisely machined and had little effect on the accuracy of the shot, which could be useful militarily. ”

"Mr. Gross, I think it's time to make a stereotyped product." Gross nodded in agreement, after all, it was his first design product.

Even with such a clear idea, Gross still took seven days to complete the first draft, and an assistant to review it for a day. He asked me to read it and sign it for approval. I shrugged my shoulders, a little dissatisfied, forget it. He looked at the final assembly diagram and said to Gross: "The body of the gun and the butt are fixed by a few screws, and the stiffness of the fixation is not very good, and under the influence of the recoil of the gun, it has an impact on the accuracy of shooting." Gross understood almost instantly, leaving with a boss under the front of the magazine. Seeing me nodding, he instructed the assistant to revise the part drawing and review the dimensions.

I signed and said to Gross, "You can consider designing a bracket for this gun, just in time, without affecting the trial production of the new gun." How long do you estimate it will take to complete part manufacturing? ”

"It's estimated to take three to five days."

"Okay, let's send a picture tomorrow, do 5 sets, internal chrome plating, external anti-corrosion 1 chrome plating, 1 cadmium plating, 3 baked blue, quality control. I've had something to do these days, but it's coming. Every day I call you and we communicate the situation in a timely manner. I'll say hi to Fred. After the new gun is basically successful, we will discuss other new gun designs. ”
