Chapter 190 The Best Treasure at the Bottom of the Box

Bob seemed even more excited than Gao Yang. He said excitedly: "What baby can make you so excited? Jack, don't show off, tell us quickly."

After making a sign of waiting, Jack quickly walked out of his lounge. A few minutes later, when Jack came back, he had a big iron rod in his hand.

Although it was an iron rod, it felt like a fragile glass product when Jack was holding it. He carefully stretched the iron rod forward and said, "Guys, look at what this is."

Bob shrugged and said indifferently: "It's just a steel rod, or just a piece of gun barrel steel, not even a gun barrel. Jack, this thing is too much for you, why is it so Excited?"

"This is gun barrel steel, but this is no ordinary gun barrel steel. Man, this is the crystallization of technology. This is the latest development of a laboratory affiliated with the United States Steel Company. They plan to sell this steel to the military. Fang also planned to occupy a place in the market of high-end gun steel for civilian shooting competitions, so they found me and asked me to help them make a batch of guns, and I secretly kept one, haha."

Gao Yang suddenly became energetic. Looking at the steel rod in Jack's hand, his eyes started to light up and he said loudly: "How is the performance?"

Jack said with excitement: "Man, this is the best gun barrel steel I have ever seen, bar none! They only produced a hundred steel rods in total. The ingredients and the production process are kept secret. In short, everything is kept secret. In short, it is very It’s very good, and I have personally verified it to be extremely good.”

Bob asked doubtfully: "If it is really so good? Why didn't the military purchase it? And the laboratory didn't mass-produce it? Also, if they keep everything secret, how could you secretly hide a steel rod? What about?"

Jack said proudly: "Under the supervision of the people sent from the laboratory, I used another specially prepared steel rod to mix it with this one, and then made the other steel rod into a gun barrel, but unfortunately Yes. That barrel was scrapped, so they destroyed the scrap barrel, and I was left with this barrel steel."

Bob asked in confusion: "Why don't you buy it but steal it? Since they plan to make this steel into gun barrels for sale, you can definitely purchase it in large quantities."

Jack looked sad. He said helplessly: "Man, forget it, the idiots in the Ministry of Defense did not purchase this kind of steel because Congress would not agree to allocate funds, and those arms companies are also unwilling to purchase this kind of steel, because this kind of steel is too damn It’s expensive. Although I don’t know the ingredients and craftsmanship, such a steel rod costs US$12,000. Man, this is just the cost price. The military would only buy it if they were crazy. And those arms companies, what do you think? How many gun barrels made of this steel can be sold in a year? Ten? One hundred? Man, the market demand cannot sustain the production line of this steel at all, so the data of this steel has been sealed and is only an experimental production. Production was discontinued after 100 pieces were sold.

Because there is no market at all, the steel rod I have may be the last of this type of steel. "

Bob also looked regretful. Said: "Is the performance improved greatly? If so, I even want my dad to buy the patent for this steel."

Jack shrugged and said: "The performance improvement for the gun barrel is indeed great, but it has not yet reached the point of subverting the original material system, and the price is hundreds of times higher, and the performance of the existing steel is sufficient. Therefore, this kind of steel is destined to be stored only as a technical reserve. That laboratory has sold it to many countries in the world. Unfortunately, the U.S. military and civilian high-end gun markets cannot afford it. Which country do you think can afford it? Do you want to start? The patent for this thing is indeed for sale, no matter who has the money to buy it, but no country's military will buy the patent and produce this kind of steel, unless they want to deliberately empty their own treasury, so you should give up The idea of ​​selling patents.”

After speaking with regret, Jack said to Gao Yang, "Okay, now this steel rod is yours. I will use it to make you the most perfect heavy-duty gun barrel, and carefully build it to match the gun barrel." We need to get all the parts of this barrel, now come with me, I have to carefully measure your body data."

Seeing Jack about to leave with Gao Yang, Cui Bo, who had been struggling not to speak, finally couldn't hold it in anymore. He immediately said in unison: "Please wait a minute, can you make me a gun too, with a 1.7 mm caliber?" Sniper rifle, you can set whatever price you want."

Jack stopped, shook his head apologetically, and said, "Man, it's not that I don't want to help, but I really don't have time. It will take at least three months to make a gun for Gao. I really can't squeeze in any more." It’s time to make another large-caliber sniper rifle.”

Cui Bo hurriedly opened his gun case, took out a Barrett m8a1m and another, and then said anxiously: "It doesn't matter if you can't make a new one. As long as the performance is greatly improved, you can modify it for me." Just one moment will do.”

Jack looked at Cui Bo's gun, but shook his head and said with a smile: "Man, what makes you think that just modification can greatly improve the performance of a gun? This is ridiculous. Let's put it this way, nowadays The firearms produced by the company have reached a very high level. If you want to significantly improve the performance on the original basis, there is no other way but to re-make one, and you need to start from the raw material level and manually polish and assemble the parts. , and this requires a lot of money and time.

Of course, if you have a crappy gun that you didn’t even pay attention to assembling, you may be able to greatly improve its performance by modifying it, but as long as it is a product that a big company thinks can be sold on the market, basically no such crappy gun will be leaked, unless You are really unlucky to a certain extent. "

Cui Bo looked disappointed and said: "Is it true that we can only make a new one? I think many gunsmiths make a living by modifying it."

Jack smiled and said: "They make a living by modifying guns, and I have upgraded the gun to the realm of art. Man, this is the gap between them and me. But, if you insist, I can still make something for you." What."

Cui Bo asked anxiously: "What can be done?"

After Jack carefully looked at Cui Bo's two guns, he said solemnly: "This M8 has been modified. It can be seen that the parts are hand-polished and assembled, but the workmanship is not good enough. In addition, this gun is not suitable for your It's not suitable for your body shape. I can reduce the weight of your gun, replace it with some lightweight parts, and then reassemble it. Then I can also modify the shape of the gun stock according to your body shape. After doing this, It will be somewhat helpful to improve the accuracy, and it will make you more comfortable to use. This should have a relatively large improvement in your shooting. But I have to explain that this is not the result of greatly improving the accuracy, but the result of making it more precise. You achieve this by being more comfortable when shooting.”

Cui Bo nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, no problem. Even if you can't make a new gun, it would be good if you can modify it to be more suitable for me."

Jack nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he said solemnly: "The modification cost is ten thousand US dollars, how do you plan to pay for it?"

The price quoted by Jack shocked Cui Bo. He was stunned and said: "Ten thousand dollars for just a modification? So expensive? Isn't it comparable to the price of this gun?"

Jack shrugged and said: "The materials are five hundred dollars, and my labor fee is nine thousand five hundred dollars. I will get the gun in three months. There is no other way. I have to work overtime in my spare time to make it for you, so you have to pay me overtime." , of course, you can choose to ask others to modify it for you."

Cui Bo immediately shook his head and said: "I just sighed, ten thousand is ten thousand, it doesn't matter."

But Bob laughed and said: "My dad has already given you gifts, and I have to give them to you too, so all the expenses here are covered by me. Don't worry, this budget is specially for my dad." Granted to me, otherwise I really wouldn’t be able to pay the money, haha.”

Li Jinfang touched his head and said, "There seems to be no need to modify my gun, right?"

Jack said solemnly: "If you are using a rapid-fire weapon such as an assault rifle, it is really unnecessary. In my opinion, the assault rifle is just a consumable, and the accuracy requirements are not too high, so if you use It’s a brand-name gun from a major manufacturer, so there’s no need to waste my time. If I were you, I would choose a tailor-made secondary weapon.”

Gao Yang nodded and said: "Yes, it's time for us to get a good pistol. I have been using m1911, but the first and best pistol I have ever used is the custom-made m1911 that Simon gave me. Later, when I used the same gun, it felt far inferior to the one Simon gave me, so now I really need to build a pistol for myself."

Bob laughed and said, "Do you feel the difference? Let me tell you, Jack made Simon's gun for him. After Simon gave you his gun, he came to Jack to customize it for him. Unfortunately, Jack didn't have time. , now you can have a pistol customized specifically for you, so you’d better return Simon’s gun to him, he will be very grateful to you.”

After finishing speaking, Bob patted Jack and said, "Brother, they saved my life, otherwise you would have lost me as a good brother. I plan to use your works to thank them. You must fulfill my wish." ."

Jack glanced at Bob and said, "You should have said this earlier. You didn't tell me that they saved you. Well, for the sake of them saving you, I can work overtime and give them every Everyone has to build a pistol that suits him, but it can only be a pistol, otherwise, I won’t be able to finish it by this time next year.”

Cui Bo looked excited. In fact, he was always excited as long as he could get a good gun. After hearing that Jack promised to make a pistol for each of them, Cui Bo immediately said loudly: "I want igp6, help me engrave it on the gun." Put my name on it.”

Jack looked at Cui Bo and smiled, then shook his head and said: "Sorry, you don't have the final say on what gun you want to use, but I have the final say. What you like may not be suitable for you, so now Come get your gun with me, and then let's go to the range and try it out and pick out the one that's really right for you." (m)
