698 683. Marksmanship Contest (4/5)
Chapter 698 683. Marksmanship Contest (45)
As the farmer said, this is a relatively well-known competition in Oceania, called the Parrot Learning Tongue Competition, but not only parrots, but also all kinds of birds can participate in the competition. They imitate human speech just for fun.
The bird resources in the southern hemisphere are very rich. It is not surprising that this kind of inexplicable activity occurs. The scale of this activity is not small, and almost all countries in Oceania have participated.
Australia, the Republic of Nauru, the Republic of Vanuatu, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Kingdom of Tonga, New Zealand, Tuvalu, the Republic of Kiribati, the Solomon Islands, the Republic of Fiji, Samoa, the Independent State of Papua New Guinea, the Republic of Palau, and of course New Zealand.
The last competition was held in the Republic of Fiji, and this time it is the turn of New Zealand. It will be held in Queenstown at the end of August, and there is still nearly a month to go.
This competition has attracted a lot of attention, with first, second and third prizes. There is also a best rookie award, with medals and bonuses. The first prize is not low, it is 100,000 US dollars. No wonder so many people pay attention.
The reason why there is a best rookie award is because there are actually only a few good parrots, so they are the ones who win the prize in the end. In order to keep the competition fresh, this award was set up.
The champions of the previous competitions have alternated. One of the army commander's compatriots has won two championships in the past five years, both of which are African gray parrots. In addition, blue-capped Amazon parrots and Cuban Amazon parrots have won awards.
After reading the introduction, Lao Wang decided to participate. The prize money is nothing, but he can make a name for himself. The competition attracts a lot of attention, and it happens that he hasn't been to Queenstown yet.
After lunch, the afternoon was leisure time. A group of farmers had nothing to do and even held a shooting competition.
There is no shortage of woods in New Zealand. There is a pine forest behind Mondo Farm. The pine trees he used to surround the farm were transplanted from the forest.
Wang Bo was also convinced. The farmers opened their cars and pulled out their guns from under the seats!
He was going crazy, pulling these people and saying: "You, do you carry guns with you? My God, do you carry guns with you? Do you have a gun license? Do you have a gun transfer certificate?"
Immediately, someone said contemptuously: "Freedom! Dude, we are in New Zealand, we must have armed freedom! Don't worry about those damn regulations, they are used by the managers to fool the people!"
Someone also said: "That's right, there are no police here anyway."
"I'm a policeman." Old Wang really wanted to say that.
Rob came over and asked, "You don't have a gun?"
Wang Bo was silent for a moment, walked back into the car, took out the Glock from the sand table, raised it up and said, "I have a pistol."
The people around stared and gave him thumbs up one after another:
"Dude, you are bull-nosed!" "I like you, you are such a fierce man!" "Dare to bring a pistol out, are you insane?"
Taking a long gun and a pistol out of the house to move outside has a different nature. In New Zealand, a long gun is a security weapon, and a pistol is an offensive weapon.
Many people don't understand that pistols are not as powerful as long guns, so why is the management stricter? Caught more severe punishment?
Because pistols are easy to hide, it is not easy to be found when entering a public place with a pistol, but a long gun cannot be hidden and will be found in advance, so for assault cases, a pistol is a more threatening weapon.
Wang Bo took out his police badge and hung it on his chest, saying, "Look, I'm legal."
Seeing him take out the police badge, someone immediately threw the shotgun in his hand to the ground, and Sura hid behind her back, looking interesting with dodging eyes.
Mondo kicked each of the two men who threw the gun: "Fake, this is the king, our buddies, you are afraid of birds!"
The two quickly picked up the gun again: "Yes, this is not a police inquiry."
The activity is very simple, that is, aiming a directional handle or a moving target. There are a lot of wine bottles in the farm, and Mondo brought people to pack them up and put them on a small wall that is only as high as a person's shoulders.
Wang Bo watched from the sidelines. It was a bit like a foreign TV series, where everyone hit wine bottles at a distance of 20 meters.
The distance of 20 meters is short, but it is not short for shooting wine bottles. Wang Bo feels that the size of the wine bottle is not too big.
Luo Bo asked him to take two shots first, Wang Bo waved his hand modestly: "You play first, you play first, let me see, I don't know the rules yet."
"There are no rules, just don't use shotguns and go beyond this line. You can play the rest, for example, you can shoot while lying down, you can jump up and shoot, you can also shoot while walking."
Wang Bo coughed and took a pistol to pose.
Hani also coughed, and said in a low voice: "Boss, bend your legs, yes, bow your front legs and bend your back legs, it's easier to aim."
Lao Wang hadn't played pistol shooting much. Although Bowen taught him this was the first lesson, he hadn't practiced it seriously. Long gun shooting was okay.
After aiming, he took a deep breath: 'Bang bang bang bang! '
Four consecutive shots were fired, but the row of bottles remained motionless, and the bullets flew to nowhere.
Whistles sounded around, and Sura said with a playful smile: "Officer Wang, your professional skills are a bit weak."
Wang Bo looked at the AR-15 in Luo Bo's hand. This is a very popular civilian rifle. It is the civilian version of the famous gun M4. Atulu has one, but he has not used it much.
He reached for the AR-15, missed a bottle, felt a little humiliated, and said, "I'll try it with the rifle."
"This can't be shot continuously. If you want to scan, then you are really thinking wrong." Robb laughed.
Wang Bo said: "I will let you see how powerful I am later!"
Eyes, card slots and front sights, three o'clock immediately lined up, looking for the feeling, he raised his hand and eyes to find the beer bottle, and gently pulled the trigger with his fingers: "Bang!"
"Crack!" Then a bottle exploded.
Wang Bo aimed at the next one: "Bang bang bang bang!"
A series of shots passed, and he smashed a row of ten wine bottles. Of course, the bullets were empty, and he refilled the bullets and still smashed the bottles.
Now the whistling was louder, and there were scattered applause.
Rob whistled loudly with his finger in his mouth, and exclaimed, "Wow, cool! I didn't expect you to be a sharpshooter."
Lao Wang said proudly: "My professional skill is actually sniping. If you replace it with a sniper rifle, I can give you a 100-meter piercer!"
Bragging and not paying taxes, anyway, these people must not have sniper rifles, he can say whatever he wants.
The second one was the host. Someone put the wine bottles back on. Mundo raised his shotgun and knocked a series of wine bottles away!
It was Lao Wang's turn to applaud and whistle: "This marksmanship is amazing!"
