Chapter 2226 Hardware
The three people conducted test firings for a long time, mainly to verify the stability of the firearms and bullets. The gun in Gao Yang's hand was an old gun, and the bullets were also old bullets. After decades, would the bullets still be as good as before? It’s hard to say whether it was so stable when it left the factory. 『㈧㈠┡中文网》⒈
In the end, Gao Yang took the k98 that Fedor left for him, and also picked a Springfield m19o3, while Cuibo and Phoenix each took the same m19o3.
There was not much room for choice in sniper rifles during World War II, so if you wanted to improve accuracy and stability, the only thing that could continue to make a fuss was bullets.
After Gao Yang and the others roughly tested the gun, the only thing left was to take the fired shell casings and drive directly to Portland to find Jack.
After a night of traveling, it was still dark when we arrived in Portland. After seeing Jack, Gao Yang, who was very tired from traveling all night, took out his rifle and said, "I want you to ensure that this gun The fired bullet can hit a person's head at a distance of 45o meters."
A qualified 98k sniper rifle should be able to hit a person's head at a distance of 3oo meters, and hit a person's *** at a distance of 6oo meters. Only with this accuracy is it qualified.
Fedor himself is an ace sniper, and his rifle is also the best rifle among the best. In Gao Yang's test, his rifle can be accurate at a distance of about 350 meters when using old bullets left behind. It can hit the target on the head, but at a distance of more than 400 meters, it is no longer guaranteed to hit a target the size of the head.
There is no way to modify the gun. If you can get better bullets, you may be able to achieve your high goals.
Jack was still the same as before. He took Gao Yang's gun and looked at it. Then he looked at Cui Bo's and the others' guns, then nodded and said, "What's it for?"
Although the relationship with Jack is very good, Jack is not in Gao Yang's circle. Jack has always been a legal gunsmith. Although he often does some illegal things, Gao Yang is still unwilling to involve Jack.
"Don't ask. What I need is to be able to accurately hit the target from a group of people at a distance of 450 meters. It must not be missed due to factors such as guns and bullets."
Jack thought for a moment, looked at Tribo and Phoenix, and suddenly said: "Springfield's bullets are easy to deal with. There are special .3oo6 high-precision bullets. If your gun is very good, then the 450-meter shot Hitting the head is no problem.”
Gao Yang said in a deep voice: "But I need 98k bullets, and I brought the shells."
Jacket scratched his head,
He said with some embarrassment: "7.92-caliber bullets are hard to find. I mean, high-precision bullets are not easy to solve. It takes time."
Gao Yang breathed out and whispered: "But we are in a hurry, very urgent, and we only have one day at most."
Jack continued to scratch his head, then he raised his head and whispered: "Give me a day, I will buy some 8x57mm heavy-point bullets. There is a brand of 8mm Mauser bullets with good accuracy, and then remove the bullets , select a batch of zero-tolerance warheads, then use your old cartridge cases, and I will manually reload some bullets, the accuracy should be enough."
The caliber of the Mauser 98k rifle is 7.92 mm, but 8 mm bullets can also be used. Most of the 98k bullets available in the US market are 8 mm.
Gao Yang thought for a while and said: "Okay, Jack, I have twelve bullet casings in one day, and I can definitely load the twelve bullets in one day."
Jack smiled and said: "Okay, how much do you want the .3oo6 bullet? I have it in stock. You can test-fire it first."
Gao Yang looked at Cui Bo and Phoenix, and then said: "When we leave, ten bullets for each gun will be enough."
Jack smiled and said, "Is that enough?"
In fact, one bullet for each gun is enough. If you think it is not safe enough, then two bullets are more than enough. In fact, the probability of using the second bullet is almost zero.
Gao Yang grabbed Jack's shoulders and said very seriously: "Jack, when making bullets, never leave traces that can be traced to you, absolutely not."
Jack thought for a moment and said: "The manufacturer of those .3oo6 bullets is a big brand. They are mainly used as shotgun bullets. The user group is very large. There is no need to worry about being traced. As for the Mauser bullets we made, I am sure , will not leave any trace.”
Gao Yang smiled and said: "Twelve Mauser bullets and twenty .3oo6 bullets. The ones tested here are not counted. Only the bullets we took away are counted. Then, they are worth ten thousand dollars each."
Jack was slightly stunned, but then said: "Okay, ten thousand dollars a piece, a very fair price."
A bullet is not worth ten thousand dollars anyway, so one dollar of the price Gao Yang paid was the bullet, and the rest was all to pay for the risk that Jack needed to bear.
Gao Yang smiled and said, "Downey Jr. will give you the safe money."
Jack went to buy the bullets to be modified. Gao Yang called Morgan in Jack's lounge, and then took a short nap.
When it was almost dark again, Jack finally finished loading the bullets for Gao Yang.
He just reloaded twelve bullets by hand, but Jack looked like he had been tired for a long time. He put the twelve bullets in front of Gao Yang and said with a tired look: "Twelve zeros selected from a hundred bullets." The tolerance bullets, the weight is exactly the same, all have been polished, the workers have all gone off work, the shooting range has been cleared, and now you can try the bullets."
Gao Yang picked up the bullet and said with a smile: "I have great confidence in you, now let us see your craftsmanship."
When he came to the shooting range, he set up a target with a human head at a distance of 450 meters. He lay down in a high position, took careful aim, and fired three test shots.
All three shots landed accurately on the human head target, and the accuracy improvement brought by the modified bullets was obvious.
Then Gao Yang fired three more shots from a standing position. Again, all three shots hit the target.
The effect is very good, and Gao Yang's hardware equipment now meets his needs.
Jack said with admiration: "You are the most accurate shooter from a standing position among all the shooters I have ever seen, bar none, but now you only have six bullets left."
Gao Yang took out one of the remaining bullets and said with a smile: "I only need this bullet, and I only have one chance to fire."
Jack spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "I don't know what you want to do, but it must be something very big."
Gao Yang looked at his watch and said with a smile: "We have to catch a plane. If the plane is delayed, we won't be able to bring our guns and bullets. Let's say goodbye. Thank you for your help, Jack."
After finishing speaking, Gao Yang thought for a while and finally decided to reveal something, so he said to Jack: "If you want to know what these bullets are used for, then watch more TV. You have to see the big news. That means I succeeded. If you didn’t see the news, or if the news said I failed, then I won’t come to you again.” (To be continued.)
